Catamaran dolphins & wales - Great friendly staff, knowledgeable about the area. We were lucky to see dolphins and wales in February. Worth the money for this experience.

Fun family day out on a catamaran - Boat was huge and plenty of space to move around . Staff are so considerate and try to find Dolphins via radar and calling all other boats . They make sure you really do get to see a pod of dolphins or whales !

Best day ever! - We had the most incredible time on this trip. Make sure you pay the little extra for the sunbeds, we were some comfortable I could have slept! But the views were so stunning and there was so much to see! We saw sea turtles, tonnes of flying fish and pilot whales. It was so amazing, the swim stop was just delicious too, the water was so warm but refreshing. I’m always worried about being able to get back into the boat after swimming but the freebird had great steps that went right down into the water so it was no issue. Great service to your seat for drinks and food too. Just book it! AND incredible service from Tenerife First Excursions, I won’t book with anyone else now. I love the ease of what’s app for booking, simply great! We booked the History of music show too, an absolute must!

Playa de las Americas branch - Found this close to our hotel and came highly recommended. Lorraine (hope i spelt it right) was amazing. Wife has disabilities and uses a rollator to walk. The trips we booked, Lorraine phoned each one to make sure they were disabled friendly/accessible before taking the bookings. Absolutely first class service that shows they put their customers above "getting the sale". Went on 3 trips with them . Each one exactly as described. Top quality service.

Better than expected - So the weather, which of course can't be controlled, had been awful. It was very windy and cold the few days before our trip. The conditions were that bad, we thought the trip was going to be cancelled. Luckily our day dawned sunny with only a light breeze. The sea had a 2 to 3 foot swell but the catamaran handled it well and for the most part, the journey was smooth enough to stand up and move around. The boat was full, I assumed previous trips had been rescheduled. We weren't interested in the sunbeds, it was going to be too cold but had it been warmer we might have considered paying the 30 or so Euros they were asking for. We sat along the side of the boat but there were also seats inside and on an upper deck. The crew were very helpful and the information given out about the trip was very informative. It was given out in all the languages of the passengers on board. We saw Pilot Whales and 2 types of Dolphin. It got a bit rougher when the boat slowed so we could watch them. Soft drinks and some alcoholic drinks were included in the tour price but the ice creams (Cornetto's) were 3 Euros. The lunch was a rice dish, we didn't fancy that because badly stored rice rice is a major source of food poisoning. The bread rolls and bananas were good though. Overall we enjoyed our trip

Beautiful vistas along the way - It was a beautiful 4 hour cruise with many vistas and a decent meal with free beer and soft drinks; minimal whale and dolphin sightings and not much communication about what you were seeing along the cruise. Did offer a swim at a beautiful cove which we didn’t partake in, but everyone looked like it was enjoyable.
