    We booked a 4.5h whale + dolphin watching tour through TFE, and Sue was very helpful with all the details. The tour ended up happening via Freebird catamarans (dunno if directly or using their boats), and I was a little skeptical since there were old reviews of bad experiences, but our trip was very pleasant. We managed to snag one of the first sunbeds (first come basis when you board the boat for 25EUR, very much recommend this), so we got to enjoy a beautiful view of the island and Los Gigantes, and a ride on the waves. The captain said the ride is a bit choppy, but it didnt seem too bad - all our stuff stayed in place, just make sure to put something heavy on your towels if you get up so the wind doesnt blow them away. We were served a nice rice+chicken lunch, and had access to free drinks. The crew entertained us with excellent music selection, and on the way back we managed to watch pilot whales for about 20 minutes, quite close at times (captn said 99% chance of seeing whales when we went in November). Our only "complaint" is that we wish more time was spent with the animals, but I think we just need a different tour for that - this was 90% relaxing, sightseeing, and swimming (which we still thoroughly recommend)

    Unforgettable experience What can I say…… WOW what an experience from start to finish Sarah was amazing 🤩 Easy to book through WhatsApp and payment link with tickets sent instantly! Couldn’t have been made any easier! Even answering the phone to me when I got lost on the pier trying to find the submarine 🫣🤣 The submarine itself is just incredible, the efforts and lengths this business has gone to create truly magical experience for all is one of the best! I’m not sure who enjoyed it more being honest, me or the kids 😂 honestly could not recommend an excursion more. Can’t believe we’ve never done it before!

    Great boat trip - we saw the whales & dolphins We had a lovely time in the Opera 60, unlike other boat trips there was loads of space and only about 14 guests. We got to see the whales & dolphins and swim in a lovely bay. The Captain was knowledgeable and a little eccentric, he provided drinks and served a lovely lunch of chicken, rice & salad. Having done other boat trips in Tenerife, this is my favourite due to it being so intimate - other boats can pack you in like sardines. This boat on the choppy waves did make some a little sea sick! I’d do this trip again and again :0)

    Amazing, 100% recommended I can't praise Daniel and his team of professionals both in the office and at sea. We too a trio with a crazy Irish man on his yacht. Food and drink provided. Most important thing was the respect this man had for the dolphin, whales and turtle we say. It was the most amazing thing ever to see these majestic animals in their own environment absolutely amazing. I was like a child. Couldn't recommend these absolutely professionals. 100%.
