What people are saying about Costa Adeje

This is the second time we booked with Maxicat and we will be recommending them for their wonderfully professional and welcoming approach. Manolo our guide seemed to have coordinated everything so well and smoothly, everyone felt included and looked after. The group of visitors on board is a perfect size, not too large; the staff really showed their experience by looking after everyone’s safety and enjoyable experience at all times. The lunch on board was really tasty both times we went, Manolo has such personal approach to every visitor. We were lucky to see both whales and dolphins on our cruise. The entire crew were really synchronised, we loved everything about this cruise including the swim with the fish towards the end of our experience.

Very good outing, the crew is very friendly, we were able to see dolphins and tropical whales. The only downside was that the meal was served late and was quite light, but apart from that, it was a great time.

The whole experience was awesome. The team was being so helpful to all of the guest even when they were seasick.

Fantastic experience, the best thing was the cordiality of the crew, they Were all very kind and professional.
