What to expect
The tour splits into two parts. First, you'll move through the working farm seeing goats and understanding the dairy operation—expect mild activity on uneven terrain. The second half shifts indoors to the tasting room, where a guide walks you through 3–4 cheeses, discussing flavour notes, texture, and production details. Wine pairings arrive course by course. The pace is deliberate, encouraging you to engage your palate rather than rush through samples.
Good to know
Wear sturdy shoes for the farm section; footing can be uneven. The tour involves standing and walking; those with cardiovascular concerns should check fitness levels beforehand. Allow extra time if travelling from Tenerife's main towns—transfers aren't included.
