Guided trip
Hello, I am Andrea, and I welcome you to my tours around the island, to see the most beautiful and typical places of Tenerife! I've been exploring the island for a year, looking for the secret wonders of this magical island and organizing more than 50 awesome trips for many hostels in that time! let's go together on a trip to discover the hidden corners of Tenerife! We will visit many places that often only locals get to know πŸ—Ύ I will take care of your accommodation in El Duque hostel, which is part of the Nest Hostels chain. The accommodation will normally be a shared dorm, but there are options for private rooms for a higher price (will discuss it in PM if you are interested). There you will be in the biggest city of the south, hosted in a giant shared house in one of the most exclusive places of the city, where you have a beautiful beach just 15 min away by walking. The hostel organizes activities every night and there are clubs and restaurants nearby, so you will not get bored for sure! The vibe of the hostel is friendly and entertaining, and the volunteers are always there to assist you! What's included in the trip price: - Pickup and dropoff from the airport - Accommodation (hostel) - Logistic to the places we visit (with 7-seater car) and guidance - A snorkeling mask to use during the trip - Lunch on all 3 activities day What is NOT included: - Dinner (near the hostel there are plenty of restaurants and often times in the hostel they have pizza/tacos/barbecue nights you can join for a small fee) - Extras during the trip - Clothes and sports equipment What you need to bring: - Comfortable shoes (also, most of Tenerife beaches are rocky, so anti-slip shoes are a nice addition) - Some heavy clothing and a hat (sweater is needed in the evening, and a light jacket may be helpful in some places like the Teide Park) - sea friendly sunscreen (corals are present in many places where we will snorkel. If you don't know how to recognize them, look for a vegan one, Australian Gold is a good brand) Let's have a nice discovery trip together πŸ₯³πŸ₯³πŸ₯³

Trip Itinerary

Duque Nest Hostel

Day 1-2
First day is reserved for the accommodation process. If in working hours (9.00 am-18.00pm), I can pick you up from the airport with my car and bring you to the hostel. In different times you can either take a bus (about 4€, will help you find the right one) or a taxi (about 15€, can provide a number to call). It's usually possible to book a meal in the hostel depending on which activities they have planned that night, but there are plenty of restaurants and shops nearby as well.
