Meet The Team
Meet Ian
Ian started the Company 7 years ago with a lot of hard work and determination, he sourced the trikes from Germany, and managed to get them over to Tenerife, a lot of paperwork and headaches later…it was worth it as the trikes are so unique.
“My favourite tour is the 3T’s (Triple Tipple Tastings) as it’s a very interesting tour and you get to taste different craft beers, different gins and rums which are local to the Island. The venue that we go to are so knowledgeable about their local products. We try all our tours before launching them, so we know first-hand how amazing these products are.
When we find the different venues or tours to do, I then build the route/tour to make sure they run smoothly.
There is so much more to Tenerife than places like Las Americas, it is nice to try the real Tenerife, we do so many different tours, we try to ensure there is something for everyone.
We have a great team and without each individual member of staff then it wouldn’t work like it does, which as a Company is wonderful to see as every team member has an important role to ensure our customers have a wonderful experience and make fabulous memories.”
Meet Maria
Maria has been driving the trikes for the tours since the beginning, 7 years ago now.
“This is a great job, meeting lots of different people and it never becomes boring as there are so many tours that we do so one day you could be doing Wine Tasting, the next tour could be Teide, and then maybe a Hollywood Tour so very varied which makes it interesting every day.
I have 2 favourite tours, it’s impossible to choose just 1, the first is the Wine Tasting at a traditional Bodega because you take the customers on the tour, and they thoroughly enjoy the wine and come out completely different with lots of laughs.
My 2nd favourite tour would be the Mystery Tour to the 16th Century Village because it is back in the hills, it is completely away from any tourist routes and is something that you wouldn’t normally see, alongside some history of the Island.
When I am not on tours, I am always looking for different excursions that we can do to add to our list of tours which means I find a certain place and will try it myself such as the food for example and see if it is something that I think our customers would enjoy.
It’s great to have a job that you enjoy and one that is so varied visiting different locations every day. What more could you ask for!”
Meet Marco
Marco joined the Team in May 2022, originally from Italy, Marco is one of the Chauffeur drivers for the tours and loves his job which certainly shines through to the customers.
“My favourite Tour is the Wine Tasting and Tapas Tour because of where we take you, but not only that, you will have to join us to see why….
When I am not working, I like cooking, especially Italian, Spanish, French, Thai, Mexican and Japanese cuisine. I enjoy hiking the Tenerife forests as well as long walks along the coast plus a bit of training at the gym. I love music but I’m very bad at singing.” (Yes Marco, we have the videos somewhere to prove this, ha-ha)
I’m also a proud member of the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride which is a worldwide organisation who raise money for mental health and prostate cancer, you can check them out here www.gentlemansride.com
See you all soon!”
Meet Andy
Andy began driving the trikes and joined the Team in November 2022 and it’s safe to say he loves his job (you can see there is a bit of a pattern here).
“I’ve been living in Tenerife for over 20 years, originally I’m from Milton Keynes, I’m a long suffering Luton Town supporter, after moving to Tenerife I began following CD Tenerife, so go up to Santa Cruz as much as I can to watch them play, I also play for a darts team, so most Friday nights you’ll find me playing darts whilst enjoying a pint or two. Big fan of 80s music, love a bit of Paul Weller.
I was delighted to join the Boom Team; I have been riding scooters since I was 17 and had many Vespas over the years. This is a great job, in fact it doesn’t feel like a job, it’s great to meet different people daily, seeing how much they enjoy the tours, everyone always has a brilliant time, no matter which tour they choose, it’s great to help them make some fantastic holiday memories.
My favourite Tour is the Mystery Tour, and I recommend including the stop for Tapas, it’s not too far away from the tourist areas but undiscovered, it’s a mystery!
Hope to see you all soon for the ride of your life!”
Meet Shaun
Shaun is the newest member to join the Team, he joined us in January 2025 driving the trikes for the tours, and you guessed it, he’s loving it!
“I’m Shaun but answer to Sean too. I’ve been riding motorcycles since I was old enough to do so, I had several when I lived in the UK but sold them all to move to the Canary Isles back in 2011. My passion has never died just rested.
Back in December 2024 an opportunity arose with a vacancy here at Boom Trikes. Well, I applied, and the ball has started rolling again. Loving the Job, the outdoor experience, the interaction with the public and the satisfaction of making peoples TOUR special for them.
I don’t really have a favourite tour, but I love Teide as well as any of the Mountain tours as the scenery is out of this world. The popular Hollywood tour is a nice relaxing tour that always pleases the customers.
Although I have to travel over 2 -2.5 hours every day commuting to and from work, it’s worth it. Looking forward to driving for you in the near future!”
Meet Fiona
Fiona joined the company in March 2024, working in the office taking the bookings, liaising with the customers, assisting them with enquiry’s and helping with the day to day running of the tours behind the scenes.
“I absolutely love working at Boom, it’s a great team to be a part of, and although I don’t get to meet the customers face to face, I feel I build a good rapport with them during the booking process. Hopefully you all agree.
I have had the pleasure of helping build some of the newer tours such as the Cocktail Making Experience and Booming Marvellous Tapas Tours, I love a good cocktail so the Cocktail Making Tour would have to be my favourite. The Mixologist is phenomenal and so passionate about his work.
I love receiving the amazing feedback from our customers, quite often as soon as they step off the trike, it’s great to work somewhere where everyone enjoys what we do.
When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my husband, teenage daughter and our rescue dog. I enjoy going out for meals and cocktails here in Tenerife, I am passionate about visiting other countries and cultures also. I also love Christmas and Disney so I guess you could say I am just a big kid at heart.
Look forward to hearing from you all soon.”
