9 quads and 8 buggies run in the evening instead of the morning — 17 machines, €60–230, 3 081 reviews. It is the same road as the daytime convoy. What changes is that you are above the cloud when the sun goes into it.
A Mount Teide sunset quad tour Tenerife operators run covers the same climb as the morning one, in the same three hours, on the same machine. The evening departures start at €60 against €55 for the daytime version, and the difference is the light: the trade wind holds a sheet of cloud against the north of the island, and from 2 000 m you watch the sun set into the top of it. That is the product. Everything else — the drinks, the photographs, the small group — is an add-on to it.
One from each shape of day. The full table is below if you want to compare all of them side by side.

Ranked by whether a day spent on them is worth it, not by star rating alone — a high score from a handful of reviews is not a recommendation.

At 2 000 m the temperature falls with the light, and you are in open air at speed with no windscreen. Every bad review of an evening machine tour on this island is about being cold, not about the driving. Take a proper jacket and gloves, even in August.
Mount Teide quad biking for sunset or in the morning at €83 — ★4.8 from 332 reviews, and it sells the morning slot on the same booking. For a quad biking Tenerife sunset tour with drinks included, Teide Volcano Sunset Quad Bike Tour with Drinks is €60.
From €60 for a shared machine to €130 for a small group sunset quad tour Tenerife operators run. An evening buggy starts at €150, because a buggy is priced per vehicle rather than per seat.
Exclusive Sunset Quad Tour — Small Groups at €130 is sold on exactly that, and Sunset Quad Bike Tour to Teide with Snack & Photos at €95 keeps the convoy short with a snack and photographs included.
Only in the machine. A sunset dune buggy tour Tenerife and a romantic sunset buggy tour Tenerife are the same evening in a two- to six-seat vehicle from €150; a quad seats one or two. There are no dunes on the route either way.
The caldera floor with the light going low across it, and then the cloud sea from above as the sun drops into it. On a clear evening you can see La Gomera and La Palma standing out of the same sheet.
Cold enough to ruin the ride if you come in a t-shirt. The park sits around 2 000 m and you are moving in open air after the sun goes. Operators say bring a jacket; take them at their word.
To drive a quad, yes — a full car licence, checked at the meeting point. Passengers do not need one, which is why the shared machine is the usual booking for couples.
Different things. The bus is cheaper and warmer and ends with telescopes; the machine costs from €60 and puts you in the landscape rather than looking at it through glass. If you only do one evening on the mountain, pick by whether you want to drive.
