Amazing hike and views - Andy provided clear and concise information before our hike. He picked us up at our hotel and we hiked above masca. The diverse landscapes and views were amazing and Andy was very knowledgeable. The hike was at a comfortable pace for most fitness levels. Thanks again Andy for a great day

Memorable hike - This was an amazing hike - the variety of landscapes is very interesting and the views of La Masca and three Canary Islands popping up through the clouds in the distance was magical. Talk about lunch with a view.

Tenerife with Andy - A Winner!! - What a great day out in Tenerife. We thoroughly enjoyed this guided walk with Andy. More than happy to recommend - get out there and savour the experience. So much packed into one day. All the advice you need to enjoy this walk is already provided but I would emphasise - good grip on your footwear. Enjoy !!

Gorgeous hike - Had a most gorgeous day of hiking with the warrior Andy. He led us strongly and solidly and knowledgeably through the hike. Small personable group. Lovely secluded trek.

If you have a chance to do the Wow factor walk - take it! - Another great walk with Andy, away from the crowds in Masca village and canyon. Will absolutely recommend. If you only have one day available for a guided walk in Tenerife, make sure you book Tenerife Guided walks' "Wow factor" walk. It truly is amazing!

Great tour! - Our third and final walk during our visit to Tenerife was through the Enchanted forest Above Masca. Great tour in the north west part of Tenerife with Andy as our guide. Scenery and vegetation like nothing we have seen.

Beautiful! - This guided walk was a nice change from the beach, and really showcases Tenerife's varied ecosystem - the plants and climate actually changes quite dramatically throughout the walk before your very eyes! Since Andy has been hiking around Tenerife for many years, he also had some interesting insights into how climate change has impacted the island. The group was very small (only 6 of us in total), and we started the walk early, so we weren't disturbed by other, much larger groups.

Amazing views at the top - The walk is very accessible and the pace could be matched by all fitness levels. The views are stunning from the top and the overall walk takes in some of the many environments in Tenerife. The views at the lunch stop were outstanding and much preferred to the crowds below. The communication beforehand was clear and quick.
