“The experience was well organised and the staff was very welcoming. My main concern was that we were a group of about 70 people and that kind of ruined the experience, if it would have been kept down to 20/30 max it would have been much more enjoyable. I’ll start with the good part, which was the last stop with the stargazing, Teide National park is very beautiful and at night is worth seeing as well. We had full moon so visibility was very good and gave it a beautiful eerie vibe, and we could still see plenty of stars up there even with the moonlight. They had 4 telescopes…”

Domingo (our driver) is incredibly skilled navigating a large bus around tight bends and making us feel safe the entire time. Both my husband and I have dietary restrictions (gluten free and shellfish allergy) and Isabelle made sure that we were both accommodated for the meal serve between sunset and stargazing.

Meet guide Alessandro, and sometimes Antonella, in Teide National Park for a three-hour small-group stargazing session. You’ll use a computerized 32-inch Dobsonian telescope or a 12-inch Night Vision scope, ask questions in English, Spanish, or Italian, and receive astrophotography images afterward.

“Thanks, the tour was great! The location, tourguide , telescope and views have been phenomenal. The guide Alessandro is very passionated and gives very good explainations about the various deep-sky objects. These are selected in a way that these can be well seen also by the astronomically untrained eye. Still this huge telescope reveals more details than smaller telescopes can. Due to the limited group size everyone has enough time at the eyepiece to really see the objects.”

“I’m so glad my family and I booked this experience. Roberto is an outstanding guide who seamlessly ran the tour in two languages, making everyone feel included. He has a real talent for explaining complex topics about the universe in a way that’s clear, engaging, and fascinating for all ages. Our group ranged from kids (my 9-year-old son loved it!) to older adults, and everyone was captivated. The location was perfect for stargazing, and Roberto went above and beyond — providing water, chocolates, and even blankets to keep everyone comfortable. He truly cares about his guests and keeps you well informed before the tour so you can prepare properly. I…”

“Never was it said we would have to ride a coach for an extra two hours when picking us up at hotel. Some people met at restaurant which than they did not have to endure wasted vacation time on a bus. If told in advance we could have taken the 15 minute taxi and saved 2-2 1/2 hour on a bus. I could go on however it’s done and mother can do about it. History 👎🏻😠”
