Guided Tour to Puerto De La Cruz, Tenerife | What's it like?

[@kutyakeksz]

I must be your new favourite subscriber as I watched the video to the end of it. It is the best walking video ever made, as nobody else was willing to talk about the town or the place we saw. Congrats. It is very enjoyable, especially for me, as I am going on holiday and staying here in a hotel for two weeks this jun. So a big thank you for doing this video. 😄

[@LivingWalks]

[@BoyInAFridge]

What a lovely looking place, so green and lush. I'm loving your narration too Mike, I felt like I was walking alongside a quite peculiar and very loveable mate. Many moments including 3:57 cracked me up!!

[@LivingWalks]

Very kind of you to say so biaf, I just hope if we ever get to walk together you’d leave the fridge at home.

[@VeganBeautyGirl]

watching this on 23 june and you have better weather in december!

[@LivingWalks]

ah is that so? Hope you are still enjoying your trip?

[@walkingtoursandroadtrips]

Great tour video! Love all the wonderful information. It's really beautiful, and there is so much to see! Would love to visit, thanks for sharing it with us :)

[@LivingWalks]

Hello fellow traveller, thanks for connecting, all the best to you.

[@davidcorbett62]

I went up that walkway/steps around 40 years ago. As a fit 21 year old just out of the army I was staying with a friend who had an apartment up there. That brings back many memories but it has all changed totally since then with shops, apartments etc. At the top to the right there is a hotel which is a member of the leasing hotels of the world and am sure a fantastic place to stay. Thank you for bringing back those lovely times

[@LivingWalks]

Hello there David, thank you for sharing your thoughts of your time there 40 years ago. We're really happy that this brought back some memories even though it has changed a lot. It must certainly have been a stunning town.

[@davidcorbett62]

It was.. The old town architecture still was the prevailing style and very interesting. A lot of people don’t like the town as it dosent enjoy the daily sun the South of the island does. But as a place to enjoy from a scenic point of view it reigns supreme

[@ttcfilmproduction]

Thanks so much for taking us along with you to the fabulous walking tour. Like 17

[@LivingWalks]

Glad to take you along with me TTC. Hope it won't be too long before we visit Istanbul and maybe get to say hello, your footage has certainly inspired us. All the best to you.

[@robertcampion4111]

Heading to Puerto in a few weeks for a family holiday (my wife, myself and our 6 year old daughter) and cannot wait. The more I see videos of the town like yours, the more I am convinced I have made the correct decision.

[@LivingWalks]

Thanks for taking the time to drop by, I hope you'll enjoy your visit and feel sure you won't be disappointed. All the best to you.

[@marjian6991]

Love Puerto, beautuful place, much nicer and more traditional than the south of the island and more friendly people. ❤

[@LivingWalks]

We do quite agree Marjian, hope to bring you many more. Thanks for dropping by.

[@marymcdaid2764]

Makes a huge difference having a voice behind the camera . It would help to hear some cafe and restaurant reviews , fantastic place, coming at the end of the month , exited x

New subscriber .. delightful ~thanks. I have booked a hotel for a month (solo trip) next November, glad I chose north Tenerife. This has been a great help for my first visit. Gracias..⛰️🌴

[@LivingWalks]

Ah that's great news. I don't think you'll be disappointed - it's my favourite side of the island, definitely.

[@PaulioMaldinio]

Just done Christmas 2023, 7 days of Heaven, up North is peaceful ✌️

[@LivingWalks]

We do agree Paulio, The north is indeed quite special. Thanks for dropping by.

[@aidanmaguire8712]

Love the place and less crowded than the South of the Island and safer

[@LivingWalks]

Quite so, we do agree!

[@lisagelder1859]

What a great video and a fab walk. 👍 i haven't been to Puerto de la Cruz for around 30 years. But we have just booked a week in March for mine & my friends birthdays. 😁🍹🥂 we went to Los Cristianos in 2019 and we enjoyed it, but really looking forward to getting back to Puerto de la Cruz. We are staying just near the Plaza del Charco 🌴🌴 down by the harbour in an air b&b apartment so loads of bars/restaurants near by. 😉 Also myself and my partner went to Lanzarote a few years back, went on a couple of trips, went to Jameos del Agua the caves are amazing and walked through the large volcanic tube. Fantastic day out. And went to see Cesar Manriqe's House/museum. So beautiful. And yes i love his art work too, very quirky. 😆 Anyway thanks for the video im going to go watch a few more now. Adios amigo. 😁😎👍

[@LivingWalks]

Hi there Lisa, so glad you enjoyed the walk. I'm sure you'll enjoy your week in March for your birthdays. We quite agree about the Jameos del Agua the caves and Cesar Manrique's House/museum. He was a special man and we're def' fans of his. In fact we have a walk through of one of his houses here on the channel. Perhaps you'd enjoy that? Anyway thanks for dropping by and all the best to you.

[@lisagelder1859]

@@LivingWalks thanks I'll have to take a look at that walk. 👍 I've subscribed now so I'll definitely be watching a few more of your walk videos. Thanks very much. 😁

[@grampsworld]

Enjoyed the walk and chat! We thinking of going to give Tenerife another try maybe north side better for us don’t like busy tourist areas full of British bars etc. La palma in February . One of our favourites islands is Gran Canaria staying in a hotel in mountains but now in my mid 70s find the drive up bit tiring. So maybe north Tenerife for February 24

[@LivingWalks]

Hello there Gramps World, glad you enjoyed the walk and chat. I'd second that in terms of the North side certainly having less of a British bars vibe. La Palma in February sounds perfect, (we do have a walk there too if it's handy?). Gran Canaria in mountains sounds just the ticket, sound like you have the right idea!!

[@Robbo1966]

A great guide and considering coming out soon

[@LivingWalks]

Thanks for visiting Paul, how nice to know you enjoyed it. Hope you have a great time if you do. All the best to you.

Thank you! Going to puerto de la Cruz for the first time on 19 May 2024 - looking forward to it! Will def do the Agatha Christie steps and prob do a bus day trip to other parts of the island!

Hello there Caroline. Pleased you enjoyed walking alongside us. I hope you're enjoying yourself if you are still there at the mo'? I have a few more walks here that might give you some ideas of places to visit. All the best to you.

Hi John, good of you to take the time to drop by. I hope you do get to return sometime soon.

[@stanisawfranczak521]

2024.06 byliśmy w Puerto de La Cruz przez 15 dni, mieszkaliśmy w hotelu H10 ( I linia brzegowa) korzystaliśmy z plaży Martinez / wspaniały obiekt/ , zwiedzaliśmy Teneryfę co 2 dzień, jako atrakcję- zwiedzanie było z wykorzystaniem komunikacji miejskiej autobusowej - znakomicie skomunikowanej z dobrymi autobusami / punktualne/. Film pokazuje centrum / starą część/ a szkoda bo nowoczesna część kurortu z promenadami i czarnymi plażami jest śliczna. Nie było czasu się nudzić - zawsze codziennie chodziliśmy na wspaniałe włoskie lody przy Plazza. Ten pobyt był wyłącznie jako zwiedzanie najstarszej części Teneryfy z jej atrakcjami. Na Teneryfie południu byliśmy już 3 krotnie. 😊

[@LivingWalks]

Dziękujemy za Twoje przemyślenia i opinie. Bardzo się cieszę, że miło spędziłeś tam czas. W przyszłości wrócimy z kolejnymi obszarami miasta. Wszystkiego najlepszego dla Ciebie.

I know Puerto De La Cruz pretty well, having been going for well over 15/16 years or so now. But never been to this part of the Agura Bar & Cafe. .I'll be there this year as well.

Hi David, thanks for dropping by, happy to have introduced you to a new bit! Hope you have a great time there, as always.

[@lumbauthor2]

@@LivingWalks I did, and some mornings I'd walk to that walkway and around past that cafe as well. It's wonderful. I go in September this year as well.

[@relhuk]

Thank you for a knowledgeable and informative video of my favorite place in the world. By the way, was the number 1234567?

[@LivingWalks]

Ah Relhuk - so close and yet so far away! The answer was in fact 1234568 - however, as you were so close, we're bestowing upon you the much prized Silver Membership! Congratulations and welcome to the secret inner circle. 👏
