    Freedom in the sea Abbiamo affittato una barca self drive (senza aver bisogno di patente) con Patricia ed è stata una esperienza fantastica!! La barca è nuova e comoda, siamo stati prima a largo a rilassarci con buona musica e qualche drink e poi ci siamo spostati a la caleta dove abbiamo messo ancora e ci siamo fatti il bagno. Un’esperienza unica sicuramente da provare , grazie Patricia!!!

    Excellent service, excellent range of excursions and a very friendly, personal, bespoke vibe. Unlike many excursion operators, TFE only sell deals on the best quality tours which they have vetted personally so others might be a couple of Euros cheaper but you are taking the risk of encountering lower standards. You get what you pay for.Dan the amiable Irish owner takes his personal reputation very seriously and his staff are also excellent. They will do you a package deal discount if you book three or more trips. Couldn’t recommend them more.

    Lovely boat trip and a fantastic experience We had a great trip on the Atlantic Star and saw two different family pods of Pilot whales, including a really large male swimming right next to the boat. The captain and our host were really knowledgeable and friendly. They made our 8year old feel really comfortable when feeling a little worried about the trip. We missed out on seeing any dolphins but that is just the chance that you take. We’d recommend the trip to everyone

    A lot of excursion reps are a bit annoying and just want their commission but not Matt at Tenerife First Excursions, he took the time to just talk to us of course he did tell us about the excursions we enquired about but on the whole we chatted and this made us go back the next day and book with him
    He was so helpful and a thoroughly a good guy, go see him
