Select participants and date
The tuk‑tuk hums to life under the Canary sun and, with the Atlantic at your flank, the road climbs toward a rim of black rock that feels older than the map. Windows are optional; wind is not. In two hours the double tuk‑tuk threads seaside avenues and volcanic backroads, stopping for short walks that reveal why this corner of Tenerife looks and tastes like no other island.

Adventure Tips
Sun protection is essential
The south coast gets strong sun year‑round—bring sunscreen, sunglasses and a brimmed hat for the open tuk‑tuk ride.
Bring water and a refillable bottle
Short stops include walks but no potable water stations; stay hydrated in the island heat.
Book private for mobility or comfort
Private bookings offer more space and easier boarding for larger bodies or reduced mobility riders.
Comfortable shoes for short walks
Expect brief 10‑minute walks on uneven volcanic surfaces at viewpoints and beaches.
Local Insights
Wildlife
- Tenerife wall lizard
- Coastal seabirds (gulls and terns)
History
The route crosses land shaped by Guanche heritage and later Spanish colonization; banana cultivation on Tenerife’s terraces became a major export in the 19th century and still defines the south coast’s landscape.
Conservation
Stay on marked paths and avoid disturbing dune vegetation; supporting local guides helps fund conservation and preserves low‑impact tourism in fragile coastal zones.
