    CANARY KAYAK TENERIFE Had a brilliant time, instructors were lovely, safety conscious and very informative. Snorkelling with the fish and seeing the wildlife made this trip extra special. We can’t recommend this company enough. Thank you

    Fantastic Heb deze trip het laatste jaar al 4 x gedaan. Telkens met andere vrienden. Altijd heel leuke beleving. Altijd verschillende vissen gezien, dolfijnen, walvissen, schildpadden. De crew Letty en Fabricio zijn héél professioneel, heel vriendelijk en gedienstig…. Heel gezellige sfeer. De boot is ook super mooi, en wat voor mij een heel groot pluspunt is…. Max 12 personen. Heel aangenaam om zoveel ruimte te hebben. Echte aanrader 👍🏻👍🏻!

    YOU MUST DO THE SUNSET TOUR!!! We used first excursions to book jet ski’s and the sunset experience on the buggies. The company is very organised and communicates really well, we got picked up from our hotel for the sunset experience and the driver arrived on time. It is an ABSOLUTE MUST DO, you will not regret it. We were worried as it was cloudy on the day we had this booked but once you are above the clouds the sky is unreal. I have never done anything like this before it is so worth the money. But take a jacket/jumper as it is so cold when you go through the clouds, they didn’t tell us this and we were freezing!! You can take snacks and drinks with you but they do provide water. You can buy the neck covers there for €5.

    Full day guided tour of La Palma visiting the erupting volcano What a great day out. First thoughts was that it was a bit morbid viewing peoples misery when they have lost their homes . But in doing this tour, I feel we were able to assist the local economy which is being affected by the reduction in numbers of tourist due to the volcano eruption. The ship sailed promptly at 08:30 from los Christianos arriving at 10:15 at Santa Cruz. Stopped off at 2 great view points on the journey across the island heading to Tazacorte where we had a three course meal. The coach guide was very knowledgeable and pointing out things of interest. Eventually we arrived at the viewing point overlooking the volcano and lava streams. What a levelling experience, sadly seeing houses half covered in lava. Then off back to Santa Cruz for the ferry back to los Christianos arriving back at 19:15. This was a really enjoyable day out. We booked through Tenerife First excursions after seeing positive reviews. It was easy enough to do online. We were in touch with Kim who made everything feel no trouble at all. I would definitely use Tenerife first excursions again👍👍. They are very professional and know there stuff, thanks for your help Kim.
