Passionate Creators of Astrophotography Experiences
Our Story
The Peak of Astrophotography
Founded by passionate photographers and astronomy enthusiasts, Teide Astrophotography Holidays has grown into a leading provider of creative night sky tours.
Teide Astrophotography Holidays was born from a simple realization: the world’s most breathtaking skies should be accessible without the burden of heavy gear or the guesswork of solo planning.
Our Mission
Based on the rugged, volcanic slopes of Tenerife, we provide a bridge between the curious photographer and the deep cosmos. Whether you are holding a camera for the first time or you are a seasoned deep-sky imager, we provide the environment, the equipment, and the expertise to help you capture the impossible.
Accredited Expertise
In an industry of “stargazing tours,” we stand apart through professional certification. Every one of our lead guides is officially accredited, holding prestigious certifications from the Starlight Foundation.
What does this mean for you? It means your holiday is led by experts who don’t just know where the stars are—they understand the physics of the light you’re capturing and the delicate ecology of our dark-sky heritage. Our accreditation is your guarantee of a safe, educational, and world-class experience.
Our High-Altitude Edge
Our operations are centered around our private remote observatory, perched at 2,200 meters on Mount Teide. At this altitude, we sit above 80% of the Earth’s atmospheric turbulence and most of the cloud cover.
We’ve removed the “traveler’s tax” of astrophotography. Instead of lugging 30kg of mounts and tripods through airports, you arrive to find a pre-calibrated arsenal of professional-grade trackers, APO refractors, and dedicated astro-cameras waiting for you.
Luxury Meets the Cosmos
We believe that a night spent under the stars is best followed by a day of indulgence. Our philosophy is “Total Immersion”—pairing the technical thrill of our remote observatory with the refined culture of Tenerife.
From the historic cobblestones of Garachico to the private “Editing and Wine” sessions at our 4-star adults-only hotel, we ensure that your journey through the stars is as comfortable as it is awe-inspiring.
Come for the stars. Stay for the soul. Leave with the masterpiece.
