The best gift you can get? Jetting off to Tenerife for the winter to celebrate Christmas in 70 degree weather!

Day-by-Day Itinerary

Day 1:

Welcome to Tenerife

Arrive on Tenerife and meet your private driver, who will take you to Costa Adeje. Once you check into the hotel, the rest of the day and evening are yours to enjoy.

Day 2:

Whale & Dolphin Watch

Today, set out on whale and dolphin watch, one of the “must-do” activities while in Tenerife. Just a 15-minute boat ride away from shore, you'll have the chance to spot bottle nose dolphins, pilot whales, and up to 21 other marine species that are common in this area. Since so many of these beautiful creatures inhabit the waters of the Canary Islands, visitors are practically guaranteed to spot marine life every day of the year!

Day 3:

Christmas Eve Dinner

Today is yours to enjoy however you wish! This evening, enjoy a traditional Canarian Christmas dinner at the hotel.

Day 4:

Free Day

Enjoy Christmas the Canarian way - hit the beach and relax in the sun!

Day 5:

Mt. Teide

After breakfast, enjoy a leisurely morning to yourself; relax at your hotel or explore the town. In the afternoon, you'll visit Las Cañadas National Park, home to Mt. Teide. This park is characterized by its unique, lunar landscape and beautiful plant life. Once in the park, pass the Chinyero volcano (site of the last major volcanic eruption in Tenerife in 1909) and stop at Roques de Garcia, where you can admire the view of Mt. Teide from 3,718 meters high. If the weather is good, you'll have the option to take the cable car to the summit of the volcano. Later, you'll enjoy the beautiful sunset overlooking the other Canary Islands and can stop to take memorable photos at a few of Mt. Teide’s stunning vistas.
