    We did the sunset quad bikes last night, what an experience. It was so exhilarating to self drive the quad bikes up the mountain. It really immersed you into the environment. The guys running it were great, really looked after everyone and put safety first. It’s the third excursion we’ve booked with first excursions ( via Kim) and they have been brilliant, we always feel safe and secure booking with them. We met Daniel and he was a great guy, clearly cares about his company and customers. Cannot recommend this company enough, Kim you are a star 🌟! Thank you so much again for another excellent experience!

    Discovering the gorgeous island of Tenerife Wow oh wow! What a time we had in Tenerife. Such a gorgeous island to explore and discover the local culture. On one of the days, we decided we had to see the island from the water - as our European forefathers once did as they discovered the beautiful island of Tenerife. I am a bit nervous about boating, but Patricia was so so helpful. She explained everything to us in detail so we would know what to expect and this helped my nerves. She clearly has an excellent knowledge of the excursions and the terrific island of Tenerife. A splendid day was had !!

    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.
