Morning Tim, the real Tenerife. What a pretty little village. We drove up to Puerto de la Cruz last year and had a lovely drive through the mountains. Going the other way we found a lovely little village Tajao with some delightful fish restaurants. All the best.
Good Morning Tim and Christine, I think this one of the best drive around you had done along with the wonderful music. This is Area we have never visited but seems like a typical Tenerife Village/ Town and we will put it on the list for next time. The pleasure you are bringing to us exiled Tenerife lovers is so important. Thank You soo much and love to you both.
Love your drive arounds ,takes us to the town's people don't always go if they are beach lovers, i spent many years holidaying on Tenerife and thought i'd seen a lot but it seems i haven't ha ha ha
Wow thanks for this one Tim, it brings back good memory's as we did a very similar drive around and parked up in the carpark at the top of the hill that you passed and walked down to the church square. We also had a good walk around Guía town and it really is beautiful, a very Spanish feel to it, we love alto explore the towns and villages away from the coast, our favorite is Santiago del Tiede and also Vilaflor.
@@TimothyDowd Is it not Summer there all year round lol? Tim I would suggest you go to Santiago Del Tiede in the Spring when the Almond Trees are in full bloom, its an amazing sight especially around the church square.
@@markrobertmurphy4876 we tried that route but the tour for disabled people was full, and was eventually cancelled before we could go... next year maybe
@@TimothyDowd I hope you get to go Tim, but anyway the village itself is beautiful with some great little Spanish restaurants, we go to one place that do fantastic arepas.
Great drive around Tim! It’s years since we’ve been up there &; don’t remember it being so big. Must add to the list for our next trip out. Keep up the great work. 👍
Love your drive around tim , have to say very funny start with that music and then your smooth voice it's like one of those skits on TV where the guy is sitting on a high stool wareing brown bell bottoms a turtle neck+ gold chain introducing a jazz set Thanks for sharing sorry about that 👍
When I'm there that's what I love to do just drive around off the beaten path finding these types of places it's lovely , you mentioned the trees also down in the coast I find the trees are so well shaped and looked after I always wanted to know what type of trees they are , anyway enough rambling on thanks again for sharing keep it coming and hope you are both well and loosing a few pounds 👍
Yes a great drive around. I do love these. Loose yourself in a new destination and very professional commentary 👍🏻😁 good tunes too. I would live somewhere like that if I was ever lucky enough to have the opportunity, although an MS sufferer myself, remitting relapsing, could be a challenge 😓♿. Well done Tim. 👍🏻👏🍺🍺
Thank you Mark, hope you make the opportunity soon, no one else is going to open it up for you...in the mean time it’s my pleasure to bring these places a little bit closer... stay safe...

Love this Tim! Just wondering if you have ever done a drive around Los Gigantes or Chayofa? As often as we have been to Tenerife we have never been to either and would love to see them! Keep up the great work!

Morning Tim heard we might need to take a negative test before we fly out now which will obviously impact on cost if family’s fly out have you heard about this ? Keep up the good work 👍🏻

It depends on what you want out of the community. If you want to integrate into local life then some Spanish is required. You will probably learn faster here because you have to. You could also find a clique who speaks English and be quite comfortable but limiting.
@@dianparrotta2118 you have to ask yourself what do you want to do basically, if you were daily routine is walking into the village doing a bit of shopping stopping for a drink or two going home and cooking. Then every village is fine. If you want, nightlife and excitement, then may be a tourist area is better. Remember, you can always get a taxi to a tourist area but you can’t get away from a tourist area if you live there😜
Once you’ve decided on which visa you’re going to get, then is probably easier to find out what you need to do to make a living. If you have savings then you can come on a non-lucrative visa but if you’re going to work, that’s harder if you’re not European, do you both have Irish passports?

Cloudy in the morning, sunny afternoon still warm... today sunny all day up to now
Love your drive around Tim especially with the commentary, that looks a lovely wee Spanish town. Its great seeing different places.
Thank you Robert
Hi Tim do enjoy your drive around always very interesting to watch
One of my favorite towns I cycle through when I make my cycling trip to Tenerife for training.
Wow... that’s hard
Loved it. Thank you Christine and Tim 😊
You’re welcome
Wonderful Tim just the sort of place I would wish to live great to see thank you both
You’re welcome Andy
Hi Tim, fab drive around again. Thank you . I am counting down the days to July when I will be staying in Tenerife for 6 weeks. 🙂🌞
Great stuff
Just spent a month in this area and loved it there.

Nice tour round with a very scenic tour or did you get lost, seemed to notice some places more than once!
Got caught in the one way system

Tim do you think living in this area without Spanish would be hard? I see the property is cheaper there than in Los Cristianos?
It depends on what you want out of the community. If you want to integrate into local life then some Spanish is required. You will probably learn faster here because you have to. You could also find a clique who speaks English and be quite comfortable but limiting.
@@TimothyDowd The village looks so remote though beautiful…I didn’t see many people either… might be too quiet for me.

Tim can you enlighten us all on all the new rules and regulations about us Brits coming to TENERIFE please 👍
Not yet... the new rules will be published later today or tomorrow, and it covers everyone, not just Brits... more speculation tonight at 5:55
Tim are there British owned pubs and cafes there? Is there English speaking communities living up there or are there only Spanish speakers???
I’m sure there are a few English speakers, but more likely better integrated than down on the coast.
@@TimothyDowd my brother wants to buy a small cafe or pub but I’m not sure if Chio or Christianos would be the best…
@@dianparrotta2118 I would take a look what’s on offer first and then decide once you’ve done your due diligence
@@TimothyDowd so true! I’m retired but he’s only 55… it’s easy for me to live anywhere with pension etc…

You wouldn't want a big car with those narrow streets or something you want to keep in mint condition lol
Unless it’s a mint with a hole :)
