    Very efficient (Booked day trip to La Palma) We booked a day trip to La Palma through Tenerife First Excursions. Lisa at the booking office could not have been more helpful. She rang the company that actually runs the trip, because, although the volcano had stopped, she advised that it was always best to check the latest details. There isn´t a pick-up service for this excursion so she gave us the number of the local taxi firm and full details of where to go. Would book through them again

    Amazing very friendly and polite Amazing, nice boat and managed to see some whales which was well cool, we then stopped for a swim and the sea was full of different fish which was nice to see. The captain was very friendly and funny. The team at Tenerife first excursions was very friendly, would like to say thanks to Daniel and Kim for organising the trip for us will definitely use them again.

    Brilliant night Excellent evening. Pick-up was easy and the dinner was great. We also got a lovely view of the sunset. The star of the show (if you’ll pardon the pun) was the stargazing, saw some breathtaking sights through the telescope. Still can’t quite believe Saturn! Craig the tour guide was engaging and informative throughout. Thanks for a great evening.

    Perfect Today, we had the chance for a private boat trip with Captain Xiba on the Galatea yacht. Shortly after departure from the Harbour, we could watch a pilot whale Familie. The further we moved out to sea, the closer the whales came to the sailing boat. The best was the fact that we were alone and no other noisy boats were around. We highly recommend this boat trip with Xiba and owner Patrick. Both of them are very friendly and competent. Thank you especially for letting a Swiss sailor take the steering wheel for a while :-) Michèle, Emilia and Christian

    Respectful, passionate and full of knowledge Our captain ‘Guy’ was pleasantly crazy but very respectful to us and most of all the ocean’s wildlife. It seems to be a bit of a rat race of yachts and catamarans for the first sighting before heading off to snorkel. But we decided to take our time, minimize engine use and luckily saw a baby dolphin and some pilot whales, all from a distance safer to them. Guy told us a lot about the island, was extremely passionate about ocean life and our whole eco system. We went on the 4pm trip and were ready to come in, but would have loved a longer trip if budget and time allowed. Be mindful that you may not get a sighting and proactive about communicating what you’d really like out of your sailing.
