    A fantastic experience! This was incredible! Captain Jesus we salute you! There was only one other couple on the boat so the whole experience felt like a private charter. We saw lots of dolphins, they come very close to the boat and Jesus managed to follow them perfectly. Heading a little bit further out we saw 3 pilot whales with their calf’s. Once we had seen these we sailed back towards an idyllic swimming spot where we saw a turtle. It’s also a lovely looking boat so makes for some great photographs with stunning views looking back towards Tenerife. I would definitely recommend this excursion.

    Intimate boat for a family-friendly outing The cruise is on a small, intimate boat so we got up close and personal with the many dolphins that we saw. Once we found a huge pod of dolphins, the captain stopped the boat and we were able to just hang out for awhile as the dolphins frolicked around us. My family and I couldn’t wipe the smiles from our faces if we tried! We also caught sight of a couple of whales which was just such a bonus. The cruise includes a sandwich but this isn’t really needed. I think a small offering of nuts/meats/cheeses would have been fine or even no food at all.

    Made our holiday The most amazing experience. Pick up was easy and on time, you then drive to the restaurant. Food is incredibly basic but you don’t go to an excursion like this for food. We then went up into the national parks before sunset to enjoy a glass of cava and take pictures above the cloud line. From there, we went up further to observe the night sky- no spoilers. Incredible experience, the best thing we did this holiday. The guys are so knowledgeable, answer any of your questions, and help you see through the telescopes. You can tell they are so passionate about their jobs, it is their hobby too. Don’t hesitate. Book this if you’re in Tenerife.

    I did 4 excursions with Tenerife first excursions. I booked parascending, paragliding, half day teide and stargazing. All excursions were done very professionally, and were breathtaking. Kim and Daniel looked after you and made booking a excursion so easy and effortless. If you ever need an excursion, I 100% highly agree using Tenerife First Excursions and they will make your stay on Tenerife enjoyable and one you will always remember. I wished I could give more than 5 stars as they deserve a 10.
