Coach tour of Tenerife

It was sunny in the south but cloudy in the north of the island.
I had booked a coach tour with the agency next door to the hotel, and was picked up at 07.50 from the Albatross Hotel just down the road, and taken to a meeting point in Los Cristianos where I got almost the last seat on the coach.
The first stop was at the cafe near the fir tree which the group had visited a few days previously.
The second stop for a short while was at the Roque de Garcia in the Tiede National Park which was not windy as it was three days before.
The coach drove around the west side of the Park, passing volcanic cones and then through a number of villages; Santiago de Tiede, Chio, and Guia de Isora, stopping in one for a drink and tourist shopping.
The fourth stop was in Icod de los Vinos to see the famous drago street and a historic house, and to have lunch. I went to a Venezuelan cafe.
The fifth stop for a photo was at the small port of Garachico on the north coast. The coach then climbed uphill on a tortuous road to Masca which was situated beautifully in a ravine, partly covered in mist, leading down to the sea on the west coast. This was good hiking country.
The coach continued on the tortuous road which would be interesting in high season with few passing places for coaches and buses. A tunnel is being built to ease the traffic flow between the north and south of the island. A good road took us back to Los Cristianos. I was the last to be dropped off. The tour had been a good way to see some more of Tenerife.
In the evening, I watched Wales v USA in the football World Cup , and had a buffet dinner in the hotel.もっと詳しく
