    Dan, Kim, Matt & all the gang at Tenerife First Excursions are all absolute heroes. I’ve been visiting Tenerife for many years & used many excursion suppliers but these guys are by far the very best.
    Customer service - including before & after your excursion - is off the charts & 2nd to none. Honest, reliable & professional. One of the only companies I deal with who treat me as not just a customer, but also a good friend.
    Very highly recommended. Thanks guys!

    A brilliant well priced tour We booked the “ Premium All Inclusive Whale & Dolphin Watching Experience” with these guys and as soon as we had booked they were in communication detailing where to meet and what to bring. This was done by WhatsApp and email which worked really well.The yacht was lovely and we had around 11 people in our group so there was loads of room for us all to spread out.There are seats at the back of the yacht if you prefer or you can sit along the side and front to get the full experience.Our captain was wonderful, explained everything to us and we just chilled as we sailed out of the port.You definitely need sunscreen, you are provided with waters, sodas and beers with a sandwich if you want it.At first we were lucky enough to see dolphins which was amazing and then further out saw baby whales with their mom. Was incredible, I’ll never forget it.Then we sailed to a quiet cove where some people got in for a swim and we just caught some sun.Then a slow cruise back along the coast to port, all in all 3 hrs.Really recommend this cruise, was around €50 each and well worth the money.Will do another tour with them when we return to Tenerife.One thing; they were very clear at the start that We might not see everything and as it’s nature, that can’t be helped. Also you only stay near a group of animals for 5 mins before moving away which felt enough time to see them without it being too much.

    Fantastic experience & great staff Highly recommend this trip, as friends or especially as a couple! The King brothers were so friendly & informative about the volcano and sights. The quads are so fun & easy to drive. Emily was also fantastic & went over and above her call of duty to ensure my sister & I had a great experience. The views are stunning! Wear something super warm though as it’s freezing the higher up the mountain you go!

    Superb and humbling whale watching experience Maco Yacht whale watching cruise from Porta Colon captained by Alex was a FANTASTIC experience. 8 of us and we kept away from the big noisy catamarans and had wonderful close up viewing of Pilot Whales and their young with no engines at close range. Alex was v knowledgable and we thoroughly enjoyed 3 hours at sea with him. Highly recommend this small boat experience.

    Beautiful trip and amazing crew! I wanted to organize a beautiful experience for me and my boyfriend. Patricia helped me so much with that! She recommended us to get smaller, more private boat, so we could enjoy better our company. The trip was truly amazing - we saw dolphins, chilled on the boat with beautiful views and swim in a turquoise water. Trip was organized very well, Patricia gave us all needed information, so we arrived to the harbor without stress.
