    Highly recommend After seeing them in tiktok we decided to visit to book our trip and they were so helpful and friendly! Really welcoming and no pressure, happy to chat and give tips and ideas. Think it was Richie that helped us at the las americas branch and he was a lovely guy. Our coach was modern and clean and not too busy and all went smoothly on the journey and during our visit to loro parque

    I contacted Daniel on whatsapp and explained what excursions we were interested in and he asked us to come to the shop to have a look at all the options.From the minute my boyfriend and I arrived at the shop, he welcomed us with a massive smile and was so welcoming.Showed us so many videos and pictures and gave us tips on what suited our taste best.. We booked 4 packages that day ( 3 hour road quad bike, 1 hour jetski, day yacht tour and parascending).On the last day, I realised that parascending might be a bit too extreme for me, so we texted Daniel and explained our situation and in no time he came with a solution in minutes.Just an FYI. all tours take professional pictures of you for around 20 euros, so just enjoy yourself and forget your phone, as they will capture all the best moments for you. all you have to do is smile and enjoy.We honestly can't thank you enough Daniel, for the amazing experiences and memories you have brought to us trough your amazing exursions.You have a customer for life and we hope to see you again in the near future.Lots of loveSamuel & Steph

    FALTÓ LA SUERTE PERO LO INTENTÓ HASTA EL FINAL Hicimos una excursión de avistamiento con ellos de 3 horas, y estuvo todo perfecto salvo que este día los animalitos no estaban por la labor de mostrarse.Excursión en velero, nosotros éramos 11 personas en total, el velero tiene una zona en la popa junto al capitán de bancos cubiertos por un toldo y también puedes ir en proa al aire libre sentado en la cubierta.Prácticamente al salir te llevan a una cala donde puedes tomar un baño y hacer snorkel, y a la vez sirven la comida que consiste en unas porciones de baguette con jamón, queso, tomate y lechuga, correctos sin más, sirven para alimentarte y si no eres de ir en barco mejor no comer mucho por los mareos. También te ofrecen refrescos y cervezas libremente.Nuestro capitán se pasó las 3 h (menos el tiempo del almuerzo) buscando las ballenas pero ese día no hubo suerte, a pesar de estar comunicado con los compañeros y estar todos barriendo la zona en su busca, este día no se quisieron mostrar, una lástima pero al menos disfrutamos del paseo en barco.Nos comentó que no es lo habitual así que animaos a hacerlo, mucho mejor verlos aquí en libertad que en una piscina de un parque.

    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.

    Breathtaking views and overall brilliant experience! The sunset quad tour was by far our favourite thing we did when we were in Tenerife, we booked a double quad - my partner drove and I was the passenger. My partner thoughroughly enjoyed his experience driving the quad and would recommend to other drivers! We decided to do this on our last night in Tenerife and the views throughout blew us away - it was the perfect way to end our holiday!The views are breathtaking and the sunset was beautiful. The guys who run the quad tour are fantastic, they are friendly, funny and all round decent guys! They only add to the experience and make you feel very comfortable. We loved the information they shared with us about mount teide and it's history and the photos that were taken were phenomenal and at only 20 euros for the entire lot how can you complain? Such a bargain! We have already recommended this tour to our family member who is visiting Tenerife in the coming weeks and they cannot wait to book this with them!You also get water and snacks included - I must say the biscuits are very good and when you watch the sunset go down you get complimentary alcohol free champagne , it was such a nice touch!The company also collects you from your hotel or nearby your hotel and drop you off afterwards, it's an all-round very good service and they make you feel safe and secure! I'd also like to say thank you to Lisa at Tenerife First Excursions for sorting this short notice for us! She was very helpful, friendly and kind when we booked with her! Overall, this is a great company to book with and we can't wait to return and try some other excursions.
