Ended up booking this directly through the company cheaper than the holiday rep. Ended up doing the 2 hour trip on the speed boat style trip. This did not disappoint! We saw numerous dolphins in their own habitat they looked majestic. The captain tried his best communicating with other boats to find some whales and his perseverence was worth it. We saw 2 whales which was magical. We had a short stop in a cove for a swim. Suitable to all ages, we went as a couple but there was also a young family. Would highly recommend!

We took the local bus from Adeje to Los Gigantes for 8 eur and as the place is quite small, we took the rapid 1.5 hour (20 eur per person)tour to see the dolphins and admire the coast. Wonderful experience- we saw dolphins and pilot whales and we able to admire the view of the cliffs. Its quite fresh out there so take a sweatshirt/jacket. Wonderful service from the lady selling the tickets who loaned me her sweatshirt for the trip! Simply exhilarating!

On the last day of our holiday in Los Gigantes, we decided to take a late 5:30pm boat trip to try spot some wales and dolphins. The flipper uno arrived about 40 minutes late (but at no fault of there own due to a delay early in the day from a boat catching fire in the harbour, therefore delaying each trip for the rest of the day). But while we waited we spoke to one of the reps. She was incredibly friendly and could speak in 5 languages!
On the boat they played some cheesy pirate music to begin with followed by a mixture of pop music which was great. We didn't spot any wales but we got to see plenty of dolphins. Free drinks were provided to everyone too which was a great added bonus. After the dolphins we stopped for 30 mins close to the shore for people to swing of the rope and into the sea, this is great for the families as you could see the children were loving it, but a bit boring if you were on the trip just for the nature spotting. Overall it was a great trip, at only €27 each with unlimited drinks, really friendly crew and made you all feel welcome and included.

After we had paid for the Masca Express and stood at the pier ready to board, we were told that instead we would be going on the Flipper Uno (Pirate ship with loud music). We said that we really would prefer to go on the boat that we booked, and paid for, but were told that they couldn't fill that boat after all so we could go another day or go on the pirate ship. As expected, the pirate ship was super phony and a pretty bad experience.

Me and my boyfriend booked our tour to seeing dolphins in advance, the company confirmed it, but after we arrive from Puerto de la Cruz, they told us that we are only 2 persons and that it is not enough so we need to pay for 4 persons or we won't go. We were willing to pay for 3 persons but that didn't help. The worker looked very uninterested and overall we are very angry and dissapointed with such a horrible customer service.

This is an amazing trip and great value for money - 2 hours of great views of Los Gigantes, whale/dolphin watching, drinks, paella and snacks, all for €25. The ship is wooden and a copy of a pirate ship with rigging and crew members dressed as pirates. The crew were friendly and helpful. However, a word of warning, if you are at all unsteady on your feet you would be wise not to try and walk around unaided. Also, beware of the foot high wooden strip across the toilet doors - there is no warning it is there and easy to trip over.

Travelled with my daughter and 4 year old granddaughter. We saw many dolphins but no whales. Staff were great and very friendly and we felt at ease. The swim in Masca bay was great swinging off the trapeze into the water. The water is too deep and choppy for small children but the staff assisted my granddaughter down the steps to experience the water lapping on her legs. When a swell came and swilled her face it was time to retreat!
Don’t forget your sunscreen and swimming costume
A great day our all round.

We took 2hrs trip for 25eur per adult (half price for kids) and that was amazing. You get 2 hours of watching dolphins, whales (if lucky) and beautiful cliffs of Masca bay, few cans of beer, full plate of chicken paella and one shot of spanish brandy. It's crazy!

Spent the morning on board ship.
Food and drink poor quality cold rice and a warm soft drink or beer.
Stopped to swim and jump off the boat which can be done any where.
We did see lots off dolphins and that was the main attraction of the visit.
Not great value for money there are other boat trips if you just really want to see the dolphins.

As a family of 8, we assembled to wait to board the boat. Unfortunately, my daughter fainted with the heat as we were about to board. The boat crew were outstanding with their assistance and could not do enough to help. After deciding it would be better to give the trip a miss. They arranged a full refund, no questions asked. And also gave all of us a lift back to our resort. I cannot thank Adolfo and his staff enough for their caring and understanding. We will definitely be using Flipper Uno on our next trip to Tenerife and would recommend to anyone considering this fabulous company

Kan je dagelijks boeken voor de dag erna? Wat zijn de kosten voor volwassenen en kinderen?
You can book from day by day. but it is recommended to pre book at least one day before. due to limited plazes. The price is 34€ for adults and 50% for the kids. you can always contact them directly via their website.

Are the boat trips suitable for young children? If not, can anyone recommend a boat trip that might suit a family with a 4 year old boy?

We paid a bit less than 32 euros in a special deal they were doing but I know they also do a fast ride out see whales which is cheaper if you don’t want to be out for 3 hours and drink and eat and also see a bus picking people up from hotels bit further away which ever you choose all people selling will help you choose best for you and all work through uno themselves
hola, querría saber si hay aseo en el barco
