    In my over 40 years of traveling I have offered exactly 3 reviews and only when the service exceptional. This is the first time where I write to warn my fellow travelers to avoid abusive tour operators. My wife (who is recuperating from stage 4 cancer ) and I booked this sailboat whale watching tour, operated by the captain/owner in the hopes of finding some peace, and tranquility on the ocean in the company of a smaller grupo. What we got instead was a breathtaking level of abuse that was extended to our group of 8. I will sum it up: we were exactly 5 minutes late due to roadway construction and my wife, who boarded first, was verbally berated for our tardiness and because she did not move quickly enough to his liking in her weakened state. I came up behind him her and politely pointed out that we had call twice to alert him of our delay and that his protestations were understandable but that his tone and manner were not. No matter, I sad to my wife, we would make the best of a beautiful day. Throughout the trip, he proceeded to ignore the entire group, which included a family with a 4 year old and a visibly pregnant mother. He blasted his music and smoked rancid cigarettes even though both the mother and child had become very seasick. When finally the entire group requested that he turn off the noise explaining that even the child had asked that it be done, he refused to do so and instead, he lowered the volume and growled: (and this is so unbelievably callous that I could not believe my ears) “there now, she looks much better” and gave the little girl a garbage bag to vomit into. The child was crying in distress and pushed his hand away from her. His disregard for her suffering was evident even to a child. When it was time to eat, he laid out a stale assortment of unappetizing dried meats and withered fruit. Nobody ate. When he offered drinks, I requested water and he pointed to the ocean and said ”there’s plenty there”. There he came back with soda cans and lukewarm water for everyone. He offered no commentary on the beautiful pilot whales we encountered, passing a one page laminated paper with information on the creatures. In fact he spent most of his time talking on his phone and very little of it concerned with the comfort and wellbeing of his passengers. And we the passengers were all in agreement that the the location was beautiful, but that the service by this captain (no crew) was on the whole, a disaster.

  • Fabulous trip

    We had an amazing experience on this small-group sailing trip! The boat was comfortable and not overcrowded, which made the experience feel very personal and relaxing. The highlight was, of course, seeing pilot whales in their natural habitat—such a beautiful and unforgettable sight. Our captain was fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the ocean and its wildlife. He made everyone feel welcome and went out of his way to ensure we had a great time. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a more intimate and respectful way to experience Tenerife’s marine life!
