We are thrilled ✨ - ...We are very excited about the day we spent with Alexander. We've learned a lot about the island of Tenerife. We have overcome such an uphill and downhill!!!!! If the husband had seen what lay ahead of him on this day, he would never have agreed 🤭😉 I think Alexander can feel such, customers,... and With unobtrusive questions and jokes is a clever distraction!!!! And it's only sitting on the dock and looking down 🤭 feelings of pride! - replaces feelings of fear👌👏 Very professionally and soulfully thought out every hour of the itinerary: proportionally packed light lunch, drink and even dessert(it is so happily eaten). Alexander has everything with him for every guest: auxiliary poles for climbing and descending - without them! Helmet, little compact flashlight! Everything he has with him- for every guest ☝️ Cherry on the cake extreme rise!!!! Pride - over the edge!!!! You feel like a Rock Climber! Hero!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! To this Day!!!! To all who think, shall we decide???!, Decide!!! You won't regret it!!! Gregory+ Lydia!!!! Alexandru and Helena Gratitude! Respect! GOOD LUCK! Peace to us All 🙏

Phenomenal! - We had the most amazing day exploring the Anaga Mountains and loved every minute of it! From start to finish, the whole experience was unforgettable. Our guide, Alex, was absolutely brilliant – full of knowledge, humour, and passion for Tenerife. He made the day so much more than just a hike, sharing fascinating stories about the history, culture, and nature of the region, and was always on hand to help, even with tips for the rest of our stay on the island. The scenery was breathtaking – from the mystical laurel forest and hidden cliffside cave village to the sweeping ridges, valleys, and volcanic landscapes. Every turn of the trail offered something new, and it really felt like stepping into another world. The picnic in nature was such a special touch, and the final climb (although a challenge!) was incredibly rewarding with views we’ll never forget. This tour was the highlight of our trip, and we’d highly recommend it to anyone wanting to experience the true magic of Tenerife. Thank you, Alex, for making it so memorable! Emma and Rebecca.

Unique Hiking Experience – Great Views, No Crowds - The tour was fantastic and the views were absolutely breathtaking. Our group was very small, with only six participants in total. The guide was extremely knowledgeable about Tenerife, especially its unique fauna and flora. The hike itself was truly amazing, though in some parts a bit challenging and not suitable for people with a fear of heights. The trail passed along the aqueduct, and in some places it became very narrow—losing balance there could be dangerous. One of the highlights was that we didn’t encounter a single other person along the entire route, which made the experience feel very special. The trail does not go through the forest (which surprised me), so it is sunny almost the whole time. Make sure to bring sun protection and plenty of water! The little picnic was also a nice touch. We had sandwiches with ham, cheese, cucumber, and tomato, as well as some nuts and muesli bars.

Definitely recommend 10/10. - Alex is the best Ukrainian guide in Tenerife! My wife and I had an incredible experience with the route and the interaction. The trail is fascinating, not difficult for physically fit people and those who are not afraid of heights. I recommend paying attention to shoes with good tread, not even necessary for hiking, but not to slide on small stones. The sandwich on top with mountain views on one side and the ocean on the other was delicious. In general: as professional, interesting and interactive as possible and with a personal approach to everyone, recommend on 100/100 both hydra and route

Beautiful, authentic hike – far from mass tourism - This hike was one of our highlights in Tenerife. The hotel pickup went completely smoothly. Our guide Alex was super sympathetic, well prepared and you could tell he was there with passion. The route was far from mass tourism and took us to hidden places we would never have discovered on our own. The tour was quite demanding – with steep sections at times – but well done by the breaks and the pleasant pace. Along the way, Alex talked a lot about nature, history and the island's special features in a casual way. Especially beautiful: He took great photos during the tour, very unobtrusive, but with a lot of attention to detail. So we could enjoy the moment without constantly reaching for the camera ourselves. The tour was well organized, not overcrowded and just completely successful. For those who are looking for real nature off the beaten track: absolute recommendation!

Five stars! - We saw goats and passed an actual shepherd! This hike is the perfect combination of challenge and beauty. There are lots of breaks along the way and the views are spectacular. Alex made sure we took time to take pictures and enjoy the scenery. Stick with this small group hike with a guide that loves what he does.
