Club Canary's Honest Take
Real talk from your local team in the Canary Islands
This is one of our most popular tours and the reason is simple - most people visiting Tenerife never leave the south. You get to see the real island. Santa Cruz, La Laguna, and Anaga are all genuinely worth a visit and very different from the resort areas most tourists spend their whole holiday in.
Be honest with yourself before booking. This is a full day on a bus with stops along the way. If sitting on a coach for 8 hours doesn't appeal to you, this probably isn't your tour. But if you want to see the greener, more cultural, less touristy side of Tenerife without renting a car and navigating mountain roads yourself - this is one of the best ways to do it.
Anaga in particular is the kind of place most visitors never find on their own. Ancient forest, mountain mist, viewpoints over the Atlantic. If you love nature, that part alone makes the day worth it.
Not the most action-packed day - but if you want to actually see Tenerife rather than just the beach, this is the tour to book.
