    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

    Jetski experience - an hour we'll remember for a long time! More memories made after a wonderful hour out on the water. Trip sorted by Kim at Tenerife First Excursions, who was great. Ski company reassured my nervous teen daughter today and she was absolutely buzzing after the experience, which helped tackle her concerns over being in open water too, as we jumped off half way through for a lovely swim. Took out 3 singles and were joined by a lovely couple on a double jetski. They fell off twice but they clambered back on and had a brilliant time. My son left me behind as I hung on for my life and feared I'd fall off. I got better as time went on but even my daughter had caught me up in the end and was turning with confidence. I worried about the experience but need not have done as we were put at ease and the session felt safe and well away from others on the water.

    Definitely the place to buy excursions Ross, in Los Cristianos, is a star! He knows his stuff and made booking the trip a breeze. He responds to WhatsApp messages extremely quickly and is super helpful. He also made several restaurant and bar recommendations. He is a real credit to the company.We loved our star gazing on Mount Teide. Thanks, Ross.
