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.

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.
