The 15 Best Dining Experiences in the World

1.Teide National Park Sunset & Stargazing with Dinner (Star Safari)

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 2,601 reviews · 7 hours (approx.) · from $95Our pick

Travel from South Tenerife into Teide National Park for a sunset above the clouds, a three-course Canarian dinner, and guided stargazing with four telescopes. Guides such as Craig, Kieran, Sol, and Sonja explain the stars, while warm coats and free night photos are provided.

“The experience was pretty good. We had some hiccups with the telescopes due to wind, and then a situation with the camera that meant we weren't able to get our night photos taken at the end of the tour. The food wasn't gourmet, but satiating. Just note that your meal does come at the very start of the tour, so you may want to skip lunch. I wouldn't book any kind of private tour vs. the bus. You still eat the same meal, hit the same spots, and get the same information as the larger group...just in a smaller vehicle. It seemed silly to watch folks from the van follow…”
