Great experience!

Henrik_G, Apr 2024

Great trip with friendly staff who really care about the animals and are happy to answer questions. Highly recommend :-)

Great trip

Jackie_S, Apr 2024

This was well run trip that did exactly what it advertised "No Chase". The staff were great and the skipper was very knowledgeable about the local and International oceans. She was passionate about human impact on the ocean and we learned a lot about various common practices that are either cruel to wildlife or damaging to the ocean environment. We saw lots of pilot whales which was great. Thank you and thoroughly recommend to anyone.

Didn’t see the dolphins...

Rashima_S, Apr 2024

Didn’t see the dolphins but saw some whales. Glad we didn’t chase them. I would have loved to see the dolphins, but so happy seeing the whales😀

Fantastic

Nigel_T, Apr 2024

Super

Daniele_G, Apr 2024

Muy profesional y el tour muy bien echo! Very professionals we saw a lot of whales a full family but no delfins.

Whales everywhere!

Ursula_M, Apr 2024

What a great trip! We were probably only 20 minutes from shore when we saw our first pilot whales, then had loads of other sightings, including dolphins! Crew were great, boat was comfortable and not too full and was one of the most successful whale watching trips i’ve done. Would thoroughly recommend and really good value for money - a lot cheaper than a number of other tours I looked at in Tenerife.

Shivani_J, Apr 2024

Learnt about cruel treatment of whales and dolphins and good work done by Sea Shepard and Dolphin project to protect these beautiful creatures! It was nice to be in a sailing boat and see whales and dolphins in their natural habitat where they rightfully belong.

The waves were very high...

The waves were very high and a lot of people were seasick, a pity because the weather was very nice, we saw some dolphins but we have to go back because of the high waves

ship was fine, big, with a lots of places to seat. we saw a few whales but unfortunately no dolphins.

Just another boat trip selling you a “wild life tour” is….

James_R, Feb 2024

Just another boat trip selling us a “wild life tour” is what we thought. But it turned out to be very much the opposite to our delight. Firstly a very enthusiastic, experienced crew conversing in multiple languages. A beautiful Tenerife morning and a calm ocean with the odd rambunctious ripple. We sailed into the February sun and we didn’t even have to leave our seat as we came across dolphins and a very big group of them at that. As we circled around them we then headed to the fish farm that again had another dolphin species and in this case the bottle nosed dolphin. Super happy and excellent price Thank you again!

Great activity!

Roman_Z, Feb 2024

Amazing short activity. Booked it two hours before the actual time and the whole family was not disappointed! On our two hour ride we saw around 8 pilot whales and 6/7 dolphins! Very calm and friendly atmosphere! Surely recommended)

2 hours well spent

Mary_H, Feb 2024

Boat was full but not uncomfortable. Guides were enthusiastic and fun. Made a nice break from the beach and all the restaurants! Good value for money too!

Thank you for amazing...

VinetaAnna_S, Feb 2024

Thank you for amazing experience. We saw dolphins, whales and turtles. Staff was friendly and helpfull. 😊

Whales and Dolfins guaranteed!

Aloysius_S, Feb 2024

Nice crew. Multi language guide. They make an effort for tourists to see as many Dolfins and Whales as possible. Close up. Great.

Too many people crammed in!

Diane, Jan 2024

The crew was good, but the tour operator allows so many reservations that there were more people than seats on the boat. I made my reservation 2 hours before departure and they were still taking bookings when they clearly should have limited the number. Many guests had to stand and were uncomfortable when the sea got a little choppy. When dolphins were spotted, everyone would cram over to that side of the boat and it was impossible to see anything. I would NOT recommend this tour.

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Hi thanks for your review- As this review has extactly the same title and almost same content, we have copied and pasted the answer to previous review. hope you dont mind. We do have a number limit on passengers which is always strictly adhered to, it was a very busy week as we had nearly a week where the boat did not go out due to bad weather conditions. It is very difficult to please everyone, and as we are the most reputable company in the harbour we did try and please everyone when we were able to go out as the weather got better. We are sorry to hear you feel like this.

Loved it

Tomas_M, Jan 2024

Loved the experience and the crew! Everything was amazing, and we spotted many whales! 🐳 Overall - highly recommend the experience.

Not very memorable 2 hours trip.

Pilot whales and Dolphins sight-seeing

Ileana_O, Jan 2024

We had a great time on the boat. The team was informative and nice! They kept us entertained and offered all the needed details. We ended up seeing some pilot whales and dolphins. Thank you!

Lucky trip

It was a nice trip, saw dolphins and pilotwhales. Even the sea was rough, we were lucky to see them.

Zeljka_R, Dec 2023

Very well organised and not crowded at all! The crew was great and the captain approached the animals in a slow and non-disturbing manner.
