    Amazing boat trip This was such a lovely boat ride! Patrick was an amazing guide and super pleasant to be around. We saw pilot whales and a few turtles. The boat does go quite slow, so something to keep in mind if you get sea sick easily as it was very bumpy!

    A must do excursion Very enjoyable experience. The boat was spacious with only 15 passengers and everything was well managed. There was plenty to drink and the food was better than the usual snacks offered. We saw lots of pilot whales and had a great swim in the sea in a little cove where we ate. The captain was fun and attentive . The boat also has a blue license that allows it to track the whales unlike many other operators. Would definitely do the trip again and would definitely recommend.

    10/10 We popped into the shop in Costa adeje and Lisa Fay is the one who dealt with us, it was our first time in there and I would highly recommend popping in she was amazing, welcoming and gave us the best advice on where to go. Travelling as a young couple she made us feel so safe and let us know if we need anything we could go to her I will definitely be using this place to book activities again highly recommend

    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

    Very efficient (Booked day trip to La Palma) We booked a day trip to La Palma through Tenerife First Excursions. Lisa at the booking office could not have been more helpful. She rang the company that actually runs the trip, because, although the volcano had stopped, she advised that it was always best to check the latest details. There isn´t a pick-up service for this excursion so she gave us the number of the local taxi firm and full details of where to go. Would book through them again
