What people are saying about Las Galletas

Amazing - saw loads of families of pilot whales!! Unfortunately no dolphins but there in the wild so we weren’t getting our hopes up as it wouldn’t have been fair. I was very nervous about the trip, I was made to feel at ease & I enjoyed every second! We had sandwiches, crisps, a big selection of fruit. There wasn’t much to see when snorkelling but it was lovely to have a refreshing swim and there were a couple of fish. Transfer was perfect too! Worth every penny!

We had a wonderful time! The skippers were very knowledgeable! We had the chance to see dolphins and Whales which was such a magical experience! We felt slightly sea sick but were helped by the skippers to feel at ease, they even offered to give us a free lift back to our hotel! I would recommend this tour to everyone going to Tenerife!

Nice small group. Beautiful boat. Plenty of food and drinks. The captain and first mate were very kind and knowledgeable. We saw whales, it was an exciting trip. Would take this trip again.

The activities are nice and also the instructor and drivers are excellent

A great experience for a family with a lovely and attentive crew
