    Linda the best 💖 We were looking for the best excursions to celebrate my birthday, and that’s when I found Linda honestly, the best decision ever!She guided us so well from start to finish and truly made my day beautiful. We booked a boat tour where we were lucky enough to see whales and dolphins, which was absolutely magical 🐋🐬.The next day, we went on a tour covering the islands of Spain all the way to Masca, and it was breathtaking. Linda even gave us a discount, which we really appreciated.Her customer service is the best — so kind, helpful, and professional. Thank you so much ❤️💖 for making our trips so beautiful and unforgettable!

    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

    Sarah is amazing! We were booked for the Opera 60 tour but due to bad weather we had it cancelled a few times. Sarah was super accommodating and we finally got to the trip!
    Well worth the wait and highly recommend the boat trip! It was amazing and will definitely be booking again! Thank you again

    We booked all our our excursions in advance online via Tenerife first excursions and it was super simple! Communication was great and it was made clear where we needed to be for meet / pick up locations and times etc! We particularly enjoyed the catamaran whale/dolphin watching and of course you can’t miss out on Siam park!However, the highlight has to be ‘small group stargazing in Mt Teide with Ben’ at Active Tenerife as not only was the evening incredible, watching the sunset and enjoying the local food Ben had bought with him, his knowledge, friendliness and humour was what truly made this our favourite excursion! His passion for what he does shines through and he had us captivated the entire evening with the history of Tenerife, the moon, sun, stars and how this all impacts our day to day life here on earth - also we got some really cool pictures under the stars included.Ben is by far the best guide and host we have ever encountered in all our years of travelling / excursions - it was a real pleasure to meet him and I would highly recommend this excursion to anyone … even if stargazing isn’t your usual thing (it’s not ours) but we learnt so much and also got to take in some breathtaking views! 10/10 experience - Thank you to Tenerife first and Ben for making our holiday so magical 💫
