Do it! Worth it to see places you won’t find easily on your own. - What a spectacular way to spend a day! Alex enjoys finding special spots and sharing them. With a fully booked tour, he picked me up at 8:30 and dropped me off at 2:30pm. The hike itself included 3 distinctly different experiences (forest, rocky hiking, and smooth path walking). I’m in fairly good condition, and I heard others comment on how rigorous the day felt to them.. Alex provided poles which I took. I’d recommend them. He’s a fun teacher - he’d ask us to guess the answer to a question and then inform us. He’s kind, safety oriented, and full of interesting facts. He also took great pictures and videos along the way. I’d highly recommend this trip if you experiencing natural beauty and enjoy group dynamics.

Great small trekking group, with Alex as a fantastic guide. If you enjoy trekking in the mountains this trip is for you. - We were looking for an alternative trip from the usual boat trip as we did that previously when visiting Tenerife. Alex is a great guide, friendly, funny and very informative. Unfortunately the forest was closed off due to Netflix filming, but that didn't spoil the day. The journey is on winding roads so bear that in mind if you are not a great traveller. Alex did say if you didn't feel great let him know lol. The views are amazing within the mountains, photos don't do it justice. I am not the best at desending hills, as Alex calls them rolling stones. If possible were trekking trainers or walking boots. But with the sticks that were provided made a great assistance as well as Alex on hand for support. I would say you have you have to be relatively fit for the end climb and be able to be bend down into small spaces to walk through the caves. But worth it to see the goats walk pass in their natural surroundings. If you are looking at doing something different on holiday we highly recommend this trip.

Alex was wonderful, kind,... - Alex was wonderful, kind, funny, and clearly does this a ton as he knew every inch of the forest and its vegetation. Felt extremely safe at all times and really got to know the group in this intimate setting. The pictures turned out wonderful, and he even edited together a little reel at the end so we have an easy memory to share with others. A must do- even if you don’t like hiking like myself- so you can really start to understand these microclimates and how Tenerife came to be ecologically. With that, it was incredible hike but not as easy as the other reviews made it seem! Perfectly doable for anyone that is able-bodied, but might get quite tired at a few points. Stopped at a good point for a little picnic of donuts, nuts, apple juice, and protein bars, which Alex provided. Would absolutely recommend, but come prepared to get some exercise in!

A magical experience - It was a fantastic stroll — highly recommended! Stunning views, a magical and unique forest, and all of this combined with a fairly easy, gently warming walk. I enjoyed it a lot! Alex is a great guide — very friendly and full of interesting facts and stories about the Canary Islands. He also took some lovely photos and videos of our small group. I recommend being prepared for changeable weather and dressing in layers. It’s also better to wear leggings or pants (not shorts) because of the bushes and damp conditions. I didn’t have special trekking shoes, just regular sneakers with a treaded sole, and they worked fine. Wear something comfortable and enjoy the beautiful Mother Nature!

Stunning views, excellent guide - I had a really great time on this hike. The views were STUNNING. Alex was an amazing guide. He was funny and super knowledgeable, gave us a lot of really interesting facts about the islands and the landscape and also took some really great photos! Our group of seven had a range of physical capacity and he did a really good job managing that well. The only thing I would have liked was a little bit more guidance on what to wear and what to bring. You need to bring water and I would recommend layers of clothes including an outer layer (hoodie) that you will probably only need for about 15 minutes. Long pants likely preferred because of the thorns you walk by. Would also recommend a hat and/or sunglasses, backpack, and shoes appropriate for trail--I wore trail running sneakers and those were perfect. The picnic includes pastries and nuts and juice. I was happy I had brought a banana along. Happy hiking!

A magical day in a fairytale forest! - The tour exceeded all expectations! The excellent guide Alex made the walk really exciting - lots of interesting facts, stories and a great sense of humor. The group was small, which added comfort and made everyone feel part of the company. Nature is magical: thick green forest, stunning views and the complete feeling of being in another world. A picnic in a picturesque clearing is particularly memorable - the perfect place to breathe and enjoy the moment. My husband and I like to walk slowly, admiring the beauty around, so we came last to the finish line – but it was perfect for us! Time on the tour seemed short, I already want to come back again. We highly recommend anyone who wants to experience the real magic of Tenerife!

Enchanted forest hike - The weather was very wet and cold when we parked up so a group decision was made to go to the Teida national park instead (where it was lovely and sunny!). Alex was flexible and wanted us to have the best experience. He was also knowledgable which made for an interesting and pleasant day - really enjoyable. A shame we didn’t get to see the enchanted forest - next time!

Nice stroll through the Masca Forest - Easy walk (approx 8km). Alex was provided lots of interesting information about Tenerife and made it an enjoyable experience. I liked that it's a small group trip rather than a big bus tour.
