    Fantastic service, down to earth and very easy to book an excursion with. I selected other as I did 4 excursions with Tenerife first excursions. I booked parascending, paragliding, half day teide and stargazing. All excursions were done very professionally, and were breathtaking. Kim and Daniel looked after you and made booking a excursion so easy and effortless. If you ever need an excursion, I 100% highly agree using Tenerife First Excursions and they will make your stay on Tenerife enjoyable and one you will always remember. I wished I could give more than 5 stars as they deserve a 10.

    Bonne expérience ! La ballade fut tres sympa ! Le personnel est aimable et à l’heure comme indiqué. Les instructions sont claires. Nous avons eu la chance de voir des dauphins ainsi que d’autre type de delphinidae. Dans le respect de la nature. Et même si nous n’en avions pas vus, la ballade est très calme et agréable ! Le bateau est bien, en petit comité !

    A brilliant well priced tour We booked the “ Premium All Inclusive Whale & Dolphin Watching Experience” with these guys and as soon as we had booked they were in communication detailing where to meet and what to bring. This was done by WhatsApp and email which worked really well.The yacht was lovely and we had around 11 people in our group so there was loads of room for us all to spread out.There are seats at the back of the yacht if you prefer or you can sit along the side and front to get the full experience.Our captain was wonderful, explained everything to us and we just chilled as we sailed out of the port.You definitely need sunscreen, you are provided with waters, sodas and beers with a sandwich if you want it.At first we were lucky enough to see dolphins which was amazing and then further out saw baby whales with their mom. Was incredible, I’ll never forget it.Then we sailed to a quiet cove where some people got in for a swim and we just caught some sun.Then a slow cruise back along the coast to port, all in all 3 hrs.Really recommend this cruise, was around €50 each and well worth the money.Will do another tour with them when we return to Tenerife.One thing; they were very clear at the start that We might not see everything and as it’s nature, that can’t be helped. Also you only stay near a group of animals for 5 mins before moving away which felt enough time to see them without it being too much.

    The most amazing and understanding service! I booked a surprise private boat excursion for myself & my husband for his birthday! Unfortunately due to me becoming pregnant & having awful sickness we couldn’t fly out to Tenerife! I contacted the lady I had booked with and she was very understanding & issued a full refund immediately! I can’t thank this. I can’t thank enough & when we can get over to Tenerife I will 💯 be booking any excursions with this company! Many Thanks again for your wonderful & understanding service xxx
