    Whales and dolphins, whales and dolphins….yeah! Got off to a slow start and was concerned we may not see anything. We saw lots of pilot whales, whole families plus babies. There were dolphins too, swimming with the whales. To top it off we saw a turtle. The swim at the end was great, so refreshing g. Captain and mate were great and friends made with the rest of the boat. Only a small group so we didn’t miss anything. Would recommend

    Brilliant night Excellent evening. Pick-up was easy and the dinner was great. We also got a lovely view of the sunset. The star of the show (if you’ll pardon the pun) was the stargazing, saw some breathtaking sights through the telescope. Still can’t quite believe Saturn! Craig the tour guide was engaging and informative throughout. Thanks for a great evening.

    Knowledgeable advisors Thanks to Lisa for suggesting Night Skies Tenerife. It was a really good tour especially as we were reluctant to do a stargazing tour again after a disappointing experience a few years ago.

    We found this place, as we watch Matt on Facebook and TikTok. I messaged the number linked to there Facebook page and they got back to me straight away answering my questions and told me where the nearest shop was. We walked there, only 20 minutes away right by the golden mile. Lorena was there, smile at the ready, and helped us within 5 minutes. Gave us all the information we needed and walked out happy and ready to go on the trips we have booked. Thank you Lorena, you are a credit to the company!! Xx
