The trip lasts 2 hours total. It’s quick but covers the main highlights: whale watching, cruising past the cliffs, and a swimming stop at Masca Bay.

We have four departures every day at 11:00, 13:00, 15:00, and 17:00. Pick whichever fits your schedule best.

The boat departs from Puerto Los Gigantes. The address is Calle Poblado Marinero 26. You’ll need to make your own way there as we don’t offer hotel pickup.

Gladiator U can take up to 36 passengers. It’s definitely a group tour, not a small intimate experience. If you prefer smaller groups, you might want to look at other options.

The waters around Los Gigantes are known for pilot whales and dolphins, and we see them on most trips. That said, they’re wild animals, so nothing is ever guaranteed. The 2-hour format means we can’t wait around for long if they’re not showing up quickly.

We stop at Masca Bay, which sits beneath the Los Gigantes cliffs. The water there is clear and calm, perfect for a quick swim. It’s a stunning spot.

With a 2-hour total trip, the swimming stop is relatively short, maybe 20 to 30 minutes. It’s enough for a refreshing dip but not a lengthy beach session.

No, you need to bring your own snorkel and mask if you want to snorkel. We provide the swimming stop but not the equipment.

You get the boat trip, whale watching, the swimming stop, one drink (water, soft drink, or beer), and insurance. That’s it. Pretty straightforward.

Bring a towel, sunscreen, sunglasses, and goggles if you want them. If you plan to snorkel, bring your own gear. Don’t forget a hat, the sun can be intense on the water.

Yes, Gladiator U can accommodate wheelchairs. Let us know when you book if you need any assistance.

Absolutely. Children aged 2 to 11 get a reduced rate at €18. Kids under 2 are free. The 2-hour duration works well for families with younger kids who might get restless on longer trips.

The crew speaks Spanish and English. You’ll get all the important information in both languages.

You can cancel up to 24 hours before departure and get a full refund. Cancel any later than that and you won’t get your money back.

Yes, we stick to the schedule. If you’re late, the boat won’t wait. With four departures daily, we need to keep things running on time.

The boat moves at speed and there can be some chop on the water. If you’re prone to seasickness, take medication beforehand. The 2-hour duration helps, at least it’s not a long ordeal if you do feel queasy.

We’re Blue Flag certified, which means we meet environmental standards. Past passengers have mentioned crew members picking up floating plastic, so there’s genuine care for keeping the ocean clean.

No, it’s budget-friendly whale watching. You get what you pay for. The crew is friendly, the boat is functional, and you’ll see the highlights. Just don’t expect champagne service or gourmet snacks.

Adults pay €28, children (ages 2 to 11) pay €18, and babies under 2 are free. That’s the full price, no hidden fees.
