What to expect

Dramatic landscapes and rugged, volcanic shores come as standard in Tenerife. But, not a lot is said about the rich agriculture the island offers. On this tour, you'll journey through the south and get to know the island's culture and identity. You'll see how aloe vera is grown and learn about its many uses at a plantation, explore the lofty village of Vilaflor de Chasna and sample local wines. Ivan, one of our expert local guides, says “Vilaflor was once called Chasna. But, when a ship captain called Pedro de Bracamonte visited, he spotted a beautiful Guanche girl and shouted Vi la flor de Chasna, which means I've seen the flower of Chasna – after this, the village got its name.”

The dry climate and year-round sunshine in the Canaries mean that aloe vera thrives here, even though it is not a native species – it originally came from the Arabian Peninsula. You'll take a guided tour of the plantation, and the owners will share their knowledge about the curative powers of this well-known plant, which is used for medicinal purposes in cultures throughout history.

Next, you'll visit Vilaflor. Perched on the southern slope of the island's volcano, Mount Teide, the views down to the coast from 1,400 metres above sea level are next level. The village has an almost Alpine feel that's totally different from the tropical coastline – it has the largest pine forest in the Canaries on its doorstep. After a look around the village, you'll visit an award-winning family-owned winery and sit down for a tasting.

    We enjoyed the trip very much, a fairly short coach journey and an adequate time spent at the itinerary. The Aloe Vera plantation was presented really well by Adriana , she explained everything simply. We then went to Vilaflora and Connie informed and took us to the highlights. Finally the winery, Reveron, excellent explanation of the process and very Informative wine tasting by Timmy. Driver and guide were great. We would definitely recommend this tour.

    The Aloe Vera farm was great, really interesting. We stopped for coffee and were told about the local speciality. The winery visit was good although we only tasted 3 wines and the samples were small. It was a shame we didn’t get to see the outside area with the vines. The guide and driver were great, very friendly, helpful and informative.

    Aloe Vera experience was informative, scenery on journey up the mountain was breathtaking, and lovely to see the village Vilaflor. Wine tasting at Reveron was interesting and informative, would have been nice to sample one or two more different wines. The only downside was the travelling, one hour on the coach from Puerto Santiago before starting to pick up anyone else on the excursion so driver kindly dropped us at the Siam shopping centre for us to get a taxi back to the hotel. Added cost.
