    Linda the best 💖 We were looking for the best excursions to celebrate my birthday, and that’s when I found Linda honestly, the best decision ever!She guided us so well from start to finish and truly made my day beautiful. We booked a boat tour where we were lucky enough to see whales and dolphins, which was absolutely magical 🐋🐬.The next day, we went on a tour covering the islands of Spain all the way to Masca, and it was breathtaking. Linda even gave us a discount, which we really appreciated.Her customer service is the best — so kind, helpful, and professional. Thank you so much ❤️💖 for making our trips so beautiful and unforgettable!

    I booked two trips with first excursions tenerife. A boat trip to see whales and dolphins and kayaking to see dolphins and turtles both trip where fantastic well organised and excellently ran events. Daniel is friendly, professional and very honest. He pointed out that seeing the wildlife was not a guarantee. Thankfully he was wrong, both trips delivered on the dolphins, whales and turtles. I can't recommend Frist Excursions Tenerife and his advice and trips highly enough. 10/10 to Daniel and his team.

    A big thank you to Tenerife First Excursions and a special mention to Lisa Fay for being absolutely brilliant in helping us book our activities! From start to finish, Lisa was very attentive and knowledgable- not just about the activities but the whole island itself! We instantly felt very comfortable and confident with the bookings we made! She reiterated that if we had any issues with our activities, Tenerife First Excursions would do whatever they can to find a resolution which was very much appreciated! The best surprise was that we booked the same boat trip on the same day as Lisa!- and so the party and fun continued and we had the best day with Lisa and her family. We’ll definitely be back on our next trip to Tenerife! ❤️❤️

    Smooth booking experience with knowledgeable staff! We were enjoying a drink at chill box in PDLA when we saw Tenerife First Excursions next door. Before we went on holiday we knew we wanted to use this company after seeing videos online and all the great feedback they had. We were more determined to use them after we checked into our hotel and the receptionist told us to be aware of a lot of ‘scam’ excursion companies out there. We started speaking to Lorena and she asked if we had any trips planned. We wanted to go to Loro Parque but with it being the other side of the island we weren’t sure how to get there. We looked on our TUI excursions and it said you have to make your own way there and it was ticket price only, so we almost gave it a miss. When we spoke to Lorena she informed me that she could book transfers for us for only €20.50pp. Which is minimal compared to what the taxi fare would of been to go to the other side of the island. I went into the office, booked the excursion all within around 5/10 mins. She printed off all of our tickets and sent a digital version to my phone incase I lost the paper. She then circled on the map where our pick up point was for the transfer and gave me it so we knew exactly where to go. All in all it was just such an easy and smooth experience and will 100% only use Tenerife First Excursions when we go back one day. Loro Parque was amazing as well by the way and definitely worth the 1.5 hour transfer 100000%.

    Wunderbarer Bootsausflug Ein sehr gelungener Ausflug (wenn man den Wellengang verträgt :D) Der Tourleiter ist sehr humorvoll und locker und wertet dadurch die Tour nochmal auf. Wir haben einige Wale und Delfine gesehen. Der Anblick auf dem Meer war einfach traumhaft. Das Boot bietet reichlich Platz und Möglichkeiten sehr schöne Fotos zu schießen. Der Badestopp war sehr schön und das Essen war sehr gut! Es wurde sogar Essen für Vegetarier angeboten, sehr schön. Alles in allem absolut empfehlenswert, Top!

    Brilliant tour with great Captain 👩‍✈️ Thanks for the nice tour and the great Captain Jie (hope I wrote correctly). The daughter had the best birthday and nature lesson. She learned a lot of new things about the inhabitants of the water.
