    Best by far Great experience, Great boat, great host. We started out on the boat and was greeted by Richard the captain, he explained what we may or may not see and started to serve the drinks (all included). We had been going around half hour and then spotted some pilot whales, great to see these creatures in their environment. Also spotted dolphins whilst heading to a nice bay where we moored for some food.You could swim here jumping of the boat and the water was very warm.We were served chicken, rice and veg and it was very nice.After a while we set off back to our dock and the end of the trip.Richard is a top class host and captain......Thanks for a top class experience

    If you are contemplating whether to book the sunset quad biking tour, book it! I honestly cannot recommend it enough, the staff are the loveliest people and the entire tour was beyond my wildest dreams.Hassle free and so enjoyable from start to finish, I would book this tour again in a heartbeat!The pick up was so simple, got a phone call saying they were outside and we hopped on in :) drove us up to the base camp where we were fitted with our jackets and helmets and given gloves as well which weren't needed on this trip but very handy to have nevertheless! Driven around the corner and assigned to a quad bike and off we went!!The views on the way up were phenomenal, there are multiple stops along the way to take photos and have a drink if you need to. Daniel was our driver but also our photographer! The photos he took were incredible and you can purchase them at the end for only €20! Considering you get 200-300 photos as well and they were such high quality it was amazing and a really lovely way to end the trip! What you get is worth so much more than what they charge and I quite happily would have payed doubled for the experience we had, it has exceeded every expectation I had!Lee was our guide who explained everything about the volcanoes etc and he was brilliant! Cannot speak highly enough of him, lovely guy and so so knowledgeable. The stops on the way up had all of the photos taken professionally by Daniel and all of the sites explained by Lee. They were both amazing guys who really seem to love the job which honestly makes all the difference as the love for it really rubs off onto everyone else!After the few stops on the way up we had an amazing view of the sunset and mount tiede in the background. You can take the most amazing photos up here and you are given some biscuits and hot chocolate/cava before heading back down again.Honestly 10000000/10 experience, absolutley phenomenal. Book it if you haven't already!!

    Great Company Nothing is too much trouble for Daniel and his team, fantastic range of tours and activities and I'm sure if you made one up they would find a way for you. We took a helicopter flight on this trip, the booking process was so simple. The flight itself was amazing and would definitely recommend. Make these guys your first stop off the plane to max out your holiday.

    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.
