Puerto de la Cruz
Puerto de la Cruz lies in the North of Tenerife, approximately one and a quarter hours journey from the Southern airport.
Puerto de la Cruz acts as the base for KWA Guided walks, lying almost equidistant to the main walking areas. Groups depart from the centre of Puerto at 09.35 and from hotel Masaru at 09.45 after breakfast, using our professionally driven private coach.
One of the most delightful aspects of staying in Puerto is that there is so much to see and do. There are museums, Botanical Gardens, the Orchard/Rose gardens, Bananera and Loro Park. There's a whole choice of live music within the local bars and restaurants in addition to high quality classical concerts; either Sunday evening concerts in a historical setting, or occasional Saturday concerts at Castillo San Felipe.

Pueblochico
Once upon a time there was a magic place, Pueblochico, where everything is smaller than we are and our dreams are made bigger with every step. A theme park on the Canary Islands, with miniatures of its most emblematic buildings. A unique walk through our magnificent architecture, our splendid nature and our impressive past. A fabulous experience, where emotions and technology join efforts to stimulate all our senses and enhances the beauty of the Canary Islands. Once upon a time there was Pueblochico, a big small tribute to the Canary Islands.
