What Makes This Tour Stand Out
Driving through Tenerife’s volcanic landscapes is an experience that appeals to both car enthusiasts and nature lovers. The scenic route takes you from the starting point at Carretera a la Escalona, 34, into the heart of Teide National Park, famous for its lava fields, volcanic formations, and dramatic scenery.
What we particularly appreciate are the viewpoints at which stops are made—ideal spots for photos and capturing the grandeur of the landscape. Tour guides arrange stops at select viewpoints that showcase Mount Teide, Europe’s highest peak, and other notable volcanic features. You’ll get time to take in the views and snap memorable pictures, which is a bonus for those eager to combine adventure with photography.
The Itinerary Breakdown
The tour begins at the starting location on Carretera a la Escalona. From there, you’ll hop into your chosen muscle car and begin your ascent toward Mount Teide. The scenic drive lasts about an hour, providing plenty of opportunities to enjoy the power of the car as you wind through the mountainous terrain.
The highlight is the visit to Mount Teide itself—a dramatic landscape that’s almost otherworldly. Here, you’ll have time to take in views of the volcano and surrounding terrain, feeling the raw energy of the volcanic activity that shaped the island. The second stop at Teide National Park allows for sightseeing, photos, and soaking up the stark beauty of the volcanic environment.
Finally, you’ll return to your starting point, with a sense of having experienced Tenerife’s most striking sights in a way that’s both active and fun.
Driving Experience and Vehicle Choice
The selection of cars—from Camaro to Mustang—adds an element of exclusivity and fun. Each vehicle is maintained to deliver high-performance excitement, and the power of at least 250 horsepower means you’ll feel the rush when you accelerate on mountain roads.
This experience is perfect for those who want more than just a sightseeing bus ride; it’s about feeling the thrill of the open road in a classic American muscle car. You don’t have to be a professional driver, but a valid driver’s license and comfort with driving a manual transmission (if applicable) are necessary.
Reviewers rave about the exhilaration of driving these cars and the beautiful views they encounter. Many mention that the cars “add to the adventure,” making this more than just a sightseeing tour.
