    Couldn’t recommend more! We booked the night skys Tenerife star gazing and the Freebird with Tenerife first excursions. Both experiences were amazing and just as described by Mark. Mark and all the team were so helpful in our bookings and made sure we chose the rights things for our budget and what we wanted to do. Couldn’t recommend them more. We will definitely be back next time to book our activities.

    These guys are without doubt very good and have excellent knowledge. Unlike most of the others in the area you're not pressured, given honest advice and well priced. We were fortunate to sit with Kim who was lovely. She went above and beyond arranging our trips. We also talked to the very friendly Daniel. When we return he has offered to take us to Kenzei 😜 thanks again for your help 👌

    Brilliant service and amazing staff Can’t recommend this company enough. We went it to book a boat excursion to see the whales, we were greeted by Lisa who sat us down and went through all of our options. Initially we were looking at a catamaran but after Lisa showed us an alternative smaller boat (Opera 60) we opted for that. She clearly explained the benefits of this against the larger boats. The trip we had was amazing, the boat, staff, food were more than we expected and to top it all off we saw the whales, and lots of the too. I’m really happy with TFE and the recommendation Lisa gave us, I can’t fault her or the company at all. We even went back the next day as I wanted to thank her personally but she was off work so I went back a couple days later and caught her to say thanks. I know there are a lot of excursion company’s around in the resorts but this one stands head and shoulders above them all. Check them out - you won’t be disappointed, that’s a guarantee.

    After seeing Tenerife first excursions on TikTok, we couldn’t wait to book through them. We met with Kim earlier this week who helped us book Siam park & buggy’s. Kim provided us with lots of information about our excursion and informed us of many more. Kim was a lovely person and will continue to book with TFE when we return. Thank you!

    Amazing experience. Great staff and sight is wondeful Amazing experience! Patrick’s boat Galatea took us about 4 miles off the coast with various stops to enjoy the sight of dolphins, local whales, and (if you’re luck as we were) migrating whales as well. The captain was great and provided us with sandwiches, chips and drinks to have during the 40 mins break in Playa Diego Hernandez, in which you can swim and snorkel in the crystal clear water. Very recommended.

    3h whale watching excursion with pick up from Los Cristianos.
    Unfortunately, my wife was taken ill the morning of our trip, and at very short notice we had to cancel. Rescheduling I thought would be almost impossible at such short notice, so I understood/expected we would lose the money paid out for the trip, or so I thought…. I would like to say a massive thank you to Sahar, who is an absolute star, and after much effort on her part actually managed to rearrange the trip for later in the week. We really appreciate Sahar’s help, total respect.
    The whale watching trip was fun and amazing, many a spotted dolphin and pilot whale were seen. All in all, a very professional service from start to finish. My thanks to everyone involved.

    Really helpful Many hanks to Sarah who helped us with this trip. We needed a calm boat due to recent surgery so she suggested the catamaran. We plumped for the 4.5hr trip and were not disappointed. She also told us how to get there and back and where to get taxis and buses from as we were too late for their transport, but it wasn’t a problem. The trip itself was great. Beautiful scenery, pilot whales, dolphins and flying fish and a chance to swim in the sea.
