Tour Times, Pricing And Pick-Up
This bus tour from Puerto de la Cruz to Teide departs Monday and Thursday only, with hotel pick-up between 12:00 and 12:30. You'll be back in Puerto de la Cruz between 17:00 and 17:30 - plenty of time to freshen up before dinner.
What You'll See On This Teide Bus Tour
The route heads inland from Puerto de la Cruz through the Orotava Valley - one of the most scenic drives in Tenerife. As you climb, the landscape changes dramatically. By the time you reach Teide National Park - a UNESCO World Heritage site - you're at over 2,000 metres with views that stretch across the island.
The main stop is Roques de Garcia, where you have free time to walk the accessible path and take in direct views of Pico Viejo and Teide's summit. Your official guide is on hand throughout to explain the volcanic history and point out what you're looking at. Most guests say this stop alone is worth the trip.
⚡ What About The Cable Car?
The Teide cable car is optional and not included in the tour price. During your free time in the national park you can either explore the Roques de Garcia area on foot or take the cable car up to the summit crater. Both are good options - it just depends what you want to do with your time up there.
If you want the cable car, book your tickets in advance at telefericoteide.com - they sell out fast and you cannot buy them on the day at the park.
Honest tip: We usually don't recommend booking the cable car for this tour. It gets cancelled very often due to strong winds at altitude - more often than most people expect. If it's cancelled on the day you lose your ticket money and you've spent your free time waiting rather than exploring. Walking the Roques de Garcia path gives you a guaranteed experience and honestly the views from there are just as good.
Who Is This Tour For?
This tour is exclusively for guests staying in Puerto de la Cruz. It works well for families, couples, and solo travellers who want to visit Teide without renting a car or committing to a full day. The afternoon departure means no early alarm - you have your morning free and still get to see one of Europe's most remarkable volcanic landscapes.

Club Canary's Honest Take
Real talk from your local team in the Canary Islands
This tour is genuinely good - but only if you're staying in Puerto de la Cruz. It doesn't pick up anywhere else in Tenerife. If you're based in the north and you want to see Teide, this is the most convenient option you'll find.
It's a half-day trip. You won't see everything Teide has to offer in 5 hours, and that's fine - that's not what this tour is for. What it does well is get you up there without an early alarm, without renting a car, and without spending your whole day on it. Pickup is at noon. You're back before dinner. Job done.
Not a full Teide day trip - but if you're in Puerto de la Cruz and want to see the volcano without the early start, this is exactly what you need.
