“Moses was an excellent guide in all respects. A good safety and procedures briefing in a relaxed but engaging manner. The conditions were ideal for smooth paddling and we were treated to sightings of 6 turtles and a pod of 4 bottle-nosed dolphins. The open water snorkelling near to the cliffs was excellent with unlimited visibility and plenty of fish to see. All in all a great 3 hrs, not too strenuous and enjoying plenty of marine information from our excellent 5* guide Moses. One to do again on our next visit to Tenerife.”

“We had an absolutely amazing experience on this trip! It started with spotting dolphins, where the guide respectfully kept a distance and allowed us to enjoy the moment – unlike others we saw who were “chasing” them. Huge respect for that. I did feel a bit seasick at one point, but the guide was right there to help. I even dropped my Insta360 to the bottom of the sea, and once again the guide came to the rescue. We honestly got everything we hoped for – and more! If I could give them 10 stars, I would. When I return to Tenerife, this will definitely be the company I go…”

“Dan was fun to tour with; we were not lucky to see dolphins and instead just a turtle when snorkeling; snorkeling is not compulsory and it is possible for a single person from a double kayak to do it without tipping the other over. We could store anything pre-tour; were given a drybag for the kayak and also a bag for water bottles; a public toilet is nearby. Bring flipflops or similar else you walk barefoot from the garage to the sea.”

“When reading the description we thought that we were booking kayaking to go and see turtles, when in reality, we may as well not have bothered. During the briefing our guide, David, gave us the safety instructions and told us all to stick together to make it easier for them to help us in the event of emergency. He had a colleague with him as a second hand who I assumed would stay at the back of the group whilst David stayed at the front. In reality, as soon as David saw the pace of the quickest kayakers, he stuck with them. There were 2 occasions where we were left…”

“(VIATOR UN DESASTRE) Shaka surf fantástico. Recomiendo reservar por fuera de viator, directamente con Shaka surf. Viator nos modificó sin preguntar la fecha (claramente porque sobre vendieron) y cuando quisimos volver a la fecha original, no habían mas lugares. Pedimos que nos lo solucionaran y se lavaron las manos, no hicieron NADA. Llamé a Shaka Surf y en dos minutos lo solucionaron. La excursión hermosa, por supuesto hay que tener suerte para encontrar a los animales, aun sin encontrarlos (nosotros vimos dos tortugas) la experiencia es hermosa y bastante económica para lo lindo que es.”

Juju and his partner are a wonderful couple; organized, passionate, and a perfect pair to run such a smooth, welcoming experience. Our guide Manuel was fantastic truly born for the sea, he shared his knowledge with genuine care and made everyone feel comfortable and enjoy conversation. It’s clear this company chooses people with the right spirit, which really sets them apart. The tour was beautiful, and we loved the option of photos for a small fee so we could just enjoy the moment. A couple of tips: don’t eat too much before (to avoid feeling queasy) and…”
