Excursions
Tenerife has a lot more to offer than just sun, beaches and palm trees. Up to twice a week we organise excursions to the best places to visit all over the island. This offers you the opportunity to get to know the diverse nature and multifaceted culture of this beautiful island.
Sightseeing tours will take you to La Laguna, a universiy city that has been proclaimed a world heritage by the UNESCO, to the lively capital Santa Cruz or to La Orotava, the oldest town on Tenerife. We also visit different museums that explain the historic and cultural development of the island and its inhabitants.
From time to time, we offer hiking tours. Destinations are, for example, the "Barranco del Infierno" - in English the "Hell´s gorge" - or to the village of Masca hidden deep in the mountains in the west of Tenerife
On trips to the tourist resorts of Las Americas and Los Christianos you can get to know the south of the island and visit their long golden beaches. A tour to the palm beach "Playa Las Teresitas" in Santa Cruz can also be arranged.
Puerto de la Cruz itself has lots of corners to discover too. You can wonder through the old town with your fellow students. We will certainly visit the world famous "Loro Parque", the "must" of the Canary Islands. This has has the world´s largest collection of parrots and is a leading centre for animal conservation.
Excursions normally take place during the weekends. We can reach any destination on the island comfortably and economically using the public transport system. Thanks to the compact size of the island the journey seldom takes longer than 2 hours.
These excursions will make your stay with us an unforgetable experience.
To give you a little taster you can take a look through a few excursion reports with photos written by some of our students.
