Watch the sun set above the clouds in Teide National Park, with a welcome glass of sparkling wine in hand, more than 1,500 metres up.
About this tour
Tenerife's trade winds pile the clouds into a flat white layer that sits over the island for much of the year. This tour takes you above it. From a viewpoint high in Teide National Park, at over 1,500 metres, you look down on that sea of cloud while the sun goes down onto it — not into a far-off horizon, but onto a floor you can almost touch.
You drive up to the meeting point in your own car, and we take care of the rest: a glass of sparkling wine on arrival, the best spot for the view, and a guide who tells you what you are looking at.
The setting is a national park that UNESCO listed as World Heritage in 2007 — a volcanic landscape of lava fields and mineral colours that shifts as the light drops. In the last half hour before sunset the rock turns from ochre to deep red, and the temperature falls with it.
The tour lasts an hour and a half and runs every day. We cap the group size so that everyone can enjoy the experience in comfort.
