With miles of seafront scenery to enjoy, the south coast of Tenerife deserves to be seen up close. On this sightseeing cruise aboard the Royal Delfin, you'll get to enjoy the jaw-dropping landscapes and catch a glimpse of the marine life in these sun-kissed waters.

We saw lots of whales and dolphins. Crew very professional Would advise sea sickness tablets to be taken though as 2 members of our group were very sick and it ruined their experience

We had a fabulous time on this trip, the transfer arrived on the exact time stared and the trip overall was brilliantly run! We even saw a flying fish!

The only problem was the times stated for the trip. Tui stated 09:45 sailing so be there 30mins before. We were there at 09:15 as advised. We didn't board until 10:00 and didn't sail until 10:45. Most other people didn't arrive until after 10:00 so they well knew what time the sailing was, but, obviously Tui got it wrong! We needn't have rushed as we did.

The tour was very well organised. All the staff were very friendly and happy to answer any questions people had about the whales/dolphins etc too. The only small complaint would be the time it took for the transfer. We were first on the bus and it took an hour to pick everyone else up around the town.

Transfer never arrived, by the time we walked down boat had departed. Booked excursion for autistic son who loves sea animals, and now dealing with his disapointment and wasted half a day of our holiday. Booked via tui for customer service, only offered 50% refund as "we should have phoned up to check booking details"?! Too late to rebook as we fly home tomorrow. Very poor communication and customer service.

Really enjoyed the two hour Royal Delphin. We did see Dolphins and Whales and had a nice relaxing trip. The guide was excellent. Fantastic knowledge and impressive language skills
