We are tourists, and we are travelers. That passion for discovering new places largely defines who we are. We love exploring different cultures and corners of the world, but we know for sure that there is no place quite like the Canary Archipelago. Each of its eight islands holds a unique and singular identity.
If you want to know more about us, on our travel blog we share detailed information, local guides, and insider recommendations to explore the Canaries—with a special focus on Tenerife, the island where we live, hike, and build our project.
Our Motivation and Local Commitment
Living here allows us to know the island firsthand and meticulously curate every experience. We personally design and guide several of our activities, but our commitment goes even further: we work closely with small local businesses and independent guides across the islands. We strongly believe in a tourism model that boosts the island economy, supports local talent, and ensures that the benefits of tourism stay directly within our community.
What drives us about us and our philosophy is the deep desire to show you the true essence of Tenerife—far beyond the typical sun-and-beach tourism. We want to share our respect for our nature, heritage, gastronomy, and history, always promoting sustainable, high-quality experiences in complete harmony with the environment.
For your peace of mind and legal guarantee, our activity is fully registered with the Government of the Canary Islands as an Official Tourist Intermediary (I-0003666.1).

• Teide Combo Tours: We lead guided hikes of low and medium difficulty—such as the iconic Roques de García loop—ending with a Starlight stargazing workshop under one of the clearest skies in the world.

As for legal guarantees and safety standards

Adverse weather and force majeure policy
For outdoor activities (especially in high-mountain areas like Mount Teide or water sports), safety is our top priority:
• Advance notice: If weather conditions are unfavorable or official alerts are issued (such as road/access closures to the National Park or rough sea conditions), we will contact you as soon as possible.
• Alternatives or refund: We will first offer the option to reschedule the activity to another date or switch to a safe alternative itinerary.
• Refund guarantee: If rescheduling is not possible or does not fit your travel dates, a full (100%) refund of the amount paid will be issued immediately.
Yes, absolutely. We operate with complete transparency and in strict compliance with current tourism legislation in the Autonomous Community of the Canary Islands.

We recommend booking activities as far in advance as possible, especially if you visit the island during high season (summer, Easter, bank holidays, and the Christmas period).
• Mount Teide summit hike: Individual permits issued by the National Park to access the crater are free of charge but extremely limited, usually selling out several months in advance. If there is no availability left on the public platform, contact us directly via email or WhatsApp to check for spaces within our exclusive allocation as authorized guides.
• Other excursions & activities: It is advisable to book at least 3 to 7 days in advance to guarantee spots in small groups, proper technical equipment, and availability for transport or boats.
