Tenerife Whale and Dolphin Watching + SWIM STOP

Susanne_B, May 2026

We have been living in...

We have been living in Tenerife for 10 years and we have done many whale-watching-tours. This was the best experience. "Thor" and the crew had been vey friendly and professional. They also had very good information about the whales and the ocean. We will be back with my sister in law and her husband in June.

Submarine Tour Tenerife: 1-hour Underwater Experience

Melissa_H, May 2026

A must do 10/10

This was our second time in the yellow submarine and the children loved it. To see all the different fish and life beneath the ocean was amazing. Each passenger gets a seat and headset with an audio guide in your preferred language. Can not fault it, the staff were equally amazing too.

Tenerife: Whale and Dolphin Watching with a Plunge

Sandra_W, May 2026

Super experience - a must do

From start to finish, enjoyed every part of the experience. Although I opted for pick up, the boat is so easy to find in Los Cristianos harbour. Loved being on a ‘pirate’ ship and it was clearly sailed by a competent team who really did look after everyone. Out for 2 hours, we saw the whales & dolphins and we had the chance to take the ‘plunge’ ….many did & loved it. Big thank you to everyone & Viator for ease of booking as always.

4-Hour Eco Mountain Safari Tour with Electric Car in Tenerife

Kendra_K, Apr 2026

My 13 yr old son & I absolutely loved this tour!!

I picked this excursion because my 13 yr old son wanted to ride in a twizy. But, it ended up being our favorite one in Tenerife. The cars were super easy & fun to drive plus we covered a lot of ground in the time we were together. Our guide Dan was extremely knowledgable on every aspect of the tour & we learned a lot about the history of the island & its native people which was fascinating. I highly recommend this tour!!

Costa Adeje : Cetacean sighting in Tenerife South

Raynald_C, Apr 2026

Fantastic Cetacean Tour

The marine experts shared fascinating information about the marine life in a way that was easy to understand, engaging, and never overwhelming. You could tell they truly care about the animals and educating their guests. The boat ride itself was very smooth and comfortable. We were lucky enough to see both dolphins and pilot whales up close! Highly recommended for anyone visiting Tenerife!

Teide by Night: Sunset and Stargazing with Telescopes Experience

Olena_F, Jan 2026

Worth a trip

Great tour to see Teide park and enjoy stars! Tour is well organized, you get to see lots of nice spots in the park during the day, catch sunset above clouds, enjoy dinner and see night sky in one go. Shout out to our guide Izabella who was very informative and made us laugh all the way! It’s a pity that we had full moon that day so we saw less stars than expected but overall experience is still nice.

Buggy tour to Teide in Tenerife

Michelle_L, Aug 2025

Really nice excursion,...

Really nice excursion, cool and funny guide. Only note is that the buggies are louuddd so if you’re sensitive to sound, earplugs are advised or those headphones for children because it is a long excursion and yeah the buggies are loud. But I would definitely recommend it! We stop a couple times for snacks and bathroom, also to see the view. Note: You do need a driving license as we drove on the main road

Most Famous Catamaran in Tenerife Island - Unlimited Drinks

Stephanie_T, Aug 2025

We had a brilliant time,...

We had a brilliant time, saw loads of pilot whales and the guys on the boat knew loads about them! The weather was choppy so it was a bit rough on the boat but they couldn’t have done more to make everyone feel comfortable! It’s the second time I’ve been on this boat and would recommend it to anyone!

Sunset and Stargazing Experience from Teide

Mayra_S, Jul 2025

Amazing night sky

It started with an on-time pickup by our lively and friendly tour operator, Ozzy, then a lovely local lunch with roasted chicken, wrinkled potatoes (their specialty) with a small salad and various mojos, also a specialty. Then off to go up around 1400 meters in Teide National Park to watch the sunset above the clouds and take lovely pictures (extra charge). From there we went up to 2000 meters to get ready to star gaze. Lots of equipment set up was necessary, but they were organized and had a contact with a truck offering hot chocolate, beer, wine and snacks (extra charge) I would highly recommend a jacket or sweatshirt as the temps dropped. There was a very large group (the only issue I would have as it was a bit too large), so while one was star gazing, the other was taking a second set of pictures with the mikyway right behind, amazing! (Also extra charge). We learned quite a bit about the night sky, say shooting stars and even satellites moving around. It’s unbelievable how much is visible under such a dark sky. Would recommend.
