2-hour guided double jet ski safari in Tenerife with a boat ride, safety briefing, a possible Los Gigantes run, plus a swim and snorkeling when conditions allow.

However due to the weather + only couple of 5 min breaks we both ended up with friction burns. Would have been better if they offered to reduce the length + returned some of the money.”
