Incredible experience Pol and Dee really made sure it was catered for us so we got the best experience
From start to finish Guillaume was incredible, it felt like he had tailored the experience to us, if your looking to scuba dive look no further. We saw lots of sea-life, was at ease the whole time and felt taken care of. The pictures and videos were amazing and so clear. We were picked up from our apartment and taken to the car park near the dive sight, we where guided through the whole process and he really made the day perfect, special, safe and most importantly – fun! We are planning on booking again in the future when we return and have told friends and family about it so they can book. We would 100% recommend!
But, of course, there are a few things to keep in mind—like the fact that it’s not suitable for children under 8, pregnant women, or those with certain health issues.

The Details of the Tour: What You Can Expect
This private scuba experience in Tenerife is built around your comfort and curiosity. The process begins with a hotel pickup in Los Cristianos, where your instructor will gather your details and prepare for the day.
We had a fantastic time scuba diving with Guillaume. He took his time explaining all of the safety measures and made us feel so safe throughout the dive. The dive site he took us too had lots of marine life and there were basically no other divers around. Would high recommend this over a bigger group diving option any day!
Well, what can I say? From the moment I got picked up to the moment I got back to the hotel, my instructor was sensational and made me feel so at ease! What an absolute pleasure and amazing experience this was. I couldn't rate this experience highly enough. I enjoyed it so much, I'm looking into doing my PADI open water license. 10/10! If you're thinking about booking this experience, do not hesitate, you won't regret it.
Great experience scuba diving in Tenerife! Well-organized, including pickup and dropoff. Guillaume is an awesome instructor! Also appreciated having a souvenir at the end with photos from the dive.
You’ll then travel in a comfortable van to one of Tenerife’s top dive sites, roughly a 30-minute drive away. The journey itself is a welcome chance to relax and get excited for what’s ahead.

The Itinerary Breakdown
Stop 1: Pickup at Los Cristianos
This is where your adventure kicks off. The host will confirm your pickup time, and from there, it’s a short drive to the dive site. The scenery along the way often makes the drive part of the overall experience—expect views of the coast and possibly some local stops.
Stop 2: Arrival at the Dive Site
Once at the site, your instructor will give a full safety briefing and explain the equipment. Unlike group tours, this is all about your individual needs, so the instruction feels tailored and unhurried. If you’re new to scuba, no worries—this is the perfect setting to learn or refine your skills in calm waters.
Underwater Exploration
The actual dive lasts around two hours, but the time feels much shorter because you’re so immersed in the surroundings. Expect to see vibrant marine life, and if conditions are right, maybe even rays gliding past. The water’s clarity and gentle currents make for a smooth, relaxing experience.
The instructor was really patient and explained everything in depth, he was really chill and managed to relax us as well, making the experience amazing. Very good English, communicating was no problem. Overall a 10/10 experience as first-time divers. Thank you for everything!
such polite staff and very helpful ! explained everything really well. The whole process from when turn up to the briefing was so simple and friendly . I cannot recommend Jose enough as took time to explain every detail in detail and in easy ways to understand such a great guy took me on a great route to see so many different types of fish and took some amazing pictures and videos of me too. If thinking of going diving choose these guys !!

Everything was explained so well.. and the help was amazing when needed !.. It also being one to one makes it an even better experience knowing you’ve got the help as soon as when needed!!

Photos & Videos

That means you can focus on enjoying the moment, knowing that beautiful memories are being captured.
Post-Dive & Return
After your underwater exploration, you’ll have a chance to debrief, talk about the experience, and review your photos. Then, in a relaxed manner, you’ll head back to Los Cristianos, where your hotel awaits.
Why This Tour Stands Out
Unlike crowded, large-group diving excursions, this experience emphasizes personalized attention. The certified instructor stays by your side, guiding you through each step, ensuring comfort and safety. This setup is especially valuable if you’re new to diving or simply prefer a more intimate, stress-free environment.
Participants have raved about how the instructor made them feel safe and supported. As one reviewer put it, “Best diving instructor ever! My boyfriend and I did this introduction dive and immediately after, we started to get our diving certificate because of the amazing experience.” That kind of encouragement and professionalism really makes this tour shine.
We had an incredible experience! As a first-time divers, feeling safe and at ease was a top priority—and this team delivered. We were lucky to be paired with Amadeo and Pep, and honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better instructor duo. They explained everything clearly, made sure we felt secure at every stage, and guided us through the entire process with patience and professionalism. We would highly recommend this duo and the experience 🤩🤩
José is an amazing instructor—friendly, professional, and incredibly patient. He put a lot of effort into helping me, and the experience was excellent!
Best diving instructor ever! My boyfriend and I did this introduction dive and immediately after we started to get our diving certificate, because of the amazing experience. If you are thinking about diving, you should definitely do it here! Thankyou friend for this experience!
The inclusion of professional photos and videos is another standout feature. It’s a thoughtful touch that turns an exciting experience into lasting memories—no extra charges, no fuss.
The Flexibility & Convenience
This tour is designed to fit into your Tenerife itinerary smoothly. With hotel pickup included, you don’t need to worry about logistics. Plus, the duration of around 3 hours makes it a perfect half-day activity, leaving room for other adventures or relaxation afterward.
