“Great scenery. Great guide Up to expectations. Only downside that reservation for the cable car up to top of teide was not included and not possible to be booked within same day nor same week due to sold out…hence our experience which was nice was limited to 2700 mt approx. But with great viewpoints along the way as shared by good guide Joel”
