Meals are a thoughtfully considered part of this trip, bringing together local flavors, mountain comfort food, and a couple of memorable dining experiences along the way. Most breakfasts, lunches, and dinners are served in the restaurant at Hotel Rural Los Partidos, where you’ll tuck into hearty, home-style dishes inspired by traditional Canarian and Mediterranean cooking – just what you need after a day out exploring the island’s landscapes. Expect generous plates made with local produce and served in a relaxed, welcoming setting.
On two of the hiking days, you’ll take a picnic lunch out on the trails, typically a sandwich, fruit, and snacks, so you can stay immersed in nature rather than heading back to the hotel. One evening, you’ll eat at a traditional guachinche – a local wine house serving regional specialties alongside wines produced on the island. After exploring Teide National Park, you’ll also enjoy a special dinner at the Parador de Las Canadas del Teide, or a similar spot if it’s unavailable due to special events. Throughout the week, the focus is on honest rural cooking, local traditions, and a mix of settings that reflect the character of the island.
Vegetarians, vegans, and other dietary requirements and allergies can be catered for, but due to the rural nature of the places visited, choices are often limited. Please request this on your passenger info form.
