Organised to dive with Amarilla Divers before we got to Tenerife by doing some research and wasn't disappointed.
I spoke to Mary to book the trip and dive dates, she was lovely to deal with and communication was excellent. Nothing seemed to be a problem. She even organised a boat dive when i asked even though it's not advertised on the website.
Neil was always on time to pick us up every morning. Safety is key with Neil which I like because things can go wrong if things get missed.
I really enjoyed diving with Amarilla Divers, my only slight criticism is that it took me 3 days to get Neil to smile.
Great dive center, great people and I would dive with them again on a heart beat.
Thanks for some really great dives.

Highly recommended, just reached my 40 dives today and completed deep diving certification, look no more, the two instructors are amazing, keep you safe (not all centers make sure of that and it is a shame) and ensure you have a great fun at all time by making you dive in greatest spots.

This Park is awesome and caters for all ages, the rides are anything between gentle meanders and hair raising high speed slides in the dark or under sharks. Food is a little over priced but the park is fantastic

Benjamin was a client friendly, patient, safety-conscious guide who led 9 of our family members from age 16 to 56 with half the group in their 20's. The views inside the Canyons were incredible, the adventure was spectacular. The hike back was along some ledges not for the faint of heart. Overall wonderful day, a highlight of our visit.

Vila Flor

Reviewed By eleanola - Scotland, United Kingdom

Been to Tenerife countless times over the past 30 years, but never been to Vila Flor before, as it is rather out of the way.
My 2010 AA guidebook said it was full of 'flowers everywhere: in dooryards, along the top of walls and in little plots along Calle Santa Catalina', and that they also grow grapes and potatoes - it wasn't, in fact there were fewer flowers there than just about anywhere else on the whole island.
There were empty terraces on the hillsides - perhaps they grow flowers there, but no sign of anything at all growing in them in August.
We drove beyond town first of all, looking for the Ermita de San Roque, from which there is a viewpoint, but we didn't find it.
We did stop to photograph the Pino Gordo, which is a very wide tree, but there is not a good vantage point, to see it well. There are, of course, many lovely Canarian Pines on the hillsides as you drive.
Back down at Vila Flor, there are gates into a free gravel car park, just next to the Iglesia de San Pedro, and a mansion opposite it. (Curiously, there is a climbing wall in the car park.)
It was late Sunday morning, and the town was very quiet, but we had a good stroll around, looking for the promised flowers! It is quite an attractive little town but, other than the church, we found nothing of interest, except an excellent little bar called Bar de Siempre, where we enjoyed coffee and Flan.
Including our coffee stop, we spent 31 minutes in Vila Flor.
I wouldn't bother going again, but if you do, I would suggest a Sunday in August is probably not the best time.

We have just returned from a wonderful night of entertainment, humour, singing, dancing, magic, good food and drink and a generally great evening.
On arrival we were greeted by the staff and characters -Elsa and Olaf. All were more than happy to have photos with my daughter including a waitress dressed as an elf! Everyone kept checking all was ok and that we had enough drinks - and we weren’t even on a premium table. It was no trouble for a server to check the food was ok for my daughters with different allergies.
The show was just terrific. All the cast put their best into it with smiles throughout. The singing was good and we could join in and clap where appropriate. There were acts that made us laugh and magical acts which made us stare in amazement and wonder and other acts for which the dancing and manoeuvres impressed us beyond belief.
At the end a few kids were welcomed onto the stage and my daughter was so excited, she didn’t stop talking about it throughout the taxi ride back!
To congratulate and praise every member of the cast at the end was a lovely touch. Well done to EVERY member of Showtime Live and thank you to all of you for making the evening special.
I don’t think a review can say how amazing this show is, you have to go and see it for yourself!

Reviewed By Simone D - West Babylon, New York

If you're looking for a ranch that values safety and their horses, this is a great place. I had booked a 2 hr advanced ride, but had underestimated how long it had been since I had ridden English style, so I was downgraded to a beginner ride which was only offered in 1 hr. I was more disappointed by the change in time from 2 hrs to 1hr than from advanced to beginners (safety is the most important thing).
My real issue is with the ride itself. I love to travel and like a guide the tells you a lot about the area. There wasn't much of that, so I asked a lot of questions instead. I felt like I was more a nuisance than anything else, especially when during the scant 1 hr ride, my guide (the owner) spent much of his time taking phone calls. I looked forward to an education and some scenic pictures. What I got was a strictly no nonsense guide who was constantly on his phone and didn't seem to consider pausing at any point for any of us to take pictures. The one good this that came from my ride was a dinner recommendation that offered me a chance to get those pics I wanted.
The ride ended with carrots for the horses, which is very sweet, and in the end, I was refunded 75% of the money I should have gotten, losing a 3x inflated fee because I had paid with PayPal.
In the end? A nice stable, but overrated trail ride on an island with so much to see and do.
