    Holiday trips Booked a catamaran trip and the sunset stargazing tour with mark,pickup from hotel for stargazing and a short walk to pickup point for the catamaran,boat ride went great drinks and lunch included,stopped to admire some pilot whales,great trip and experience,sadly the stargazing was called off due to cloud cover(apparently very uncommon,only 10 or so times a year it happens)it’s agreed that if this does happen you get half your money back and a money off voucher if you can’t rejoin it on another day.had to go back and spoke with Patricia,once we sorted out the booking day and found receipts Patricia sorted out the refund(voucher gets emailed)very promptly,all round a great experience and wouldn’t hesitate to use this company again when I hopefully get to return to Tenerife.
