Whale and Dolphin Watching Yacht Trip – 3 Hours from Puerto Colon in Costa Adeje

While on a well earned holiday, heading to the sea for a whale-watching excursion sounds like the perfect getaway. It’s so therapeutic to be out on the water and enjoying tasty food and drink. Pilot whales inhabit the temperate waters feeding off giant squid, but bigger whales and some dolphins and turtles pass through too. After this experience, your yacht will take you to a remote bay for delicious food and drinks before taking you deep into crystal clear waters for an invigorating swim, snorkel & amazing photo opertunities.

    Lisa Fay Best Customer Representative For Excursions I can highly recommend Teneriffe First Excursions but would like to highlight their customer service representative Lisa Fay! Teneriffe is packed with various companies trying to sell you excursion packages on the street so we spoke to quite a few whilst walking around, but stopped when Lisa started speaking to us. From the initial introduction of what they have to offer to us making payment of the boat we decided to rent we felt comfortable throughout the process. No hard sales tactics but extremely informative, slight negotiation but definitely to our benefit in comparison to others, extremely professional but fun at the same time. If I ever go back I would definitely contact Lisa again and recommend anyone looking to book a boat ride, volcano tour, quad or buggy rally etc with her. Five stars throughout ***** Thank you from us again

    Richie & top class customer experience We visited on our first couples holiday Sep 24 to the new shop next to chill box in playa de las americas. Richie was absolutely spot on. Didn’t have a tui rep in our hotel. First day here visited him and booked all our trips for the week, Siam park, loro park, helicopter tour and jet skis. Really looked after us with info and communication was class. Felt secure booking and a very trustworthy person/company as we always second guess the trips we book but reassured everything will be taken care of. Would absolutely recommend to anyone visiting to book through Richie/Tenerife First Excursions and will be back next time for sure. Thank you very much!

    Car hire Lindsay was amazing when it came to finding us the perfect car for hire! We was a little apprehensive with it being our first time driving abroad and not knowing where to start but Lindsay secured us a fab deal! Original pricing was a little outside our budget range on site but Lindsay kindly enquired with several companies to get us the best deal, they even dropped the car off and will pick it up once finished. Again, Lindsay checked in with us following pick up to make sure everything was OK and gave us a few driving tips! Thanks again, will most certainly rent again on our next trip x
