Look, good people!... - If you are ready to travel back in time and experience a chivalrous epic, the dinner show at Castillo San Miguel is sure to be the night not to be missed!
Warmly welcomed by the King and Queen in person, we had the honor to visit their property as well as pose for the souvenir photo.
Then cool off while waiting quietly and patiently for access to the space where the show was going to take place. The room was almost full (more than 500 seats!). I think the organization is super well organized. Once everyone settles down, "must the show go on!" A quality of sound and light, actors who are 200% full of eyes! Stunts, stagings just WAOUH! And, a hot hot hot audience: it was crazy! The stars: horses, of course! The menu is well dosed - you could feel the taste that the chicken was well marinated, seasoned, YUM:-D! We didn't see the evening pass!
E-P-O-U-S-T-O-U-F-L-A-N-T!
P.S. 1: with my daughters, we are sensitive to animal welfare and just hope that horses are treated well <3...
P.S. 2: review to asthmatics, plan your Ventoline!

Great experience - Something different and was very entertaining, food was OK and lots of wine! Great value for money and worth a trip. Only down side is the travel time from Puerto de la cruz is about an hour and a half but that's no fault of the venue.

Family night out - We were a family of six. Grandparents, parents and a 10 and 4 year old. We drove to the castle. I wasn’t expecting to enjoy the evening as much as I did (family choice to go). It is a brilliant evening- we all agreed.
We were a little uncertain of where to go to begin with. You enter the castle, are given either black or yellow tabards and then head to a bar area. The entrance to the arena is to the right of the souvenir shop and opens around 7:10pm.
Do not go expecting a gourmet meal !! It is a medieval meal- veg soup and roll for starter. Chicken leg, sliced potatoes and tomatoes for main and a slice of vienetta ice cream for dessert (children get chicken nuggets and chips for main). All served on metal dishes (but you do get cutlery). Drinks included are water, white and red wine and fizzy orange (again in a metal cup). Also expect to eat in low/dark lighting.
The entertainment is beyond brilliant. Expert horse riding, jousting, falconry, fire dancing and such fun audience participation. You are up and down out of your seat, screaming and booing the whole way through. The actors clearly love what they are doing.
Opportunities for photos with the actors after. Would thoroughly recommend this evening.

Fantastic show and experience - Brilliant night, must for anyone visiting Tenerife. Not suitable for under 10s imo but anyone else should take the time to go and spend a night there.

Immense Fun! - Your picture is taken on arrival, which you can buy during the meal for €10. Prepare to shout and cheer for your team, either black or yellow, It's so infectious, jousting, sword fighting, falconry and a woman playing with fire! Food is served to you, soup and a roll, chicken , potatoes with tomato slices and ice cream for desert. You get a bottle of wine, water and orange fanta with your entrance fee, beer is extra but reasonable at €2.50 a bottle. All in all was great fun, would definitely recommend 👌.

Fantastic night! - I am honestly quite shocked by some of the negative reviews.. some people expect the world for pence.. in my opinion this is a very reasonably priced excursion for what you get! Yes the transfer took a little while (only 45-60 mins depending on where your hotel is - we booked via TUI) but it's so worth it! We paid a little extra and got VIP tickets which was only a few pounds extra but were sat at the front with a glass of Champagne. However even for normal tickets you do get unlimited free water, Fanta, choice of wines, they also come round selling beers (which aren't expensive!) We thought the food was great, large thigh of chicken cooked beautifully and Garlic potatoes. My son is 7 and absolutely loved it, he got so much attention from the knights and they made his experience fantastic. The horses are all beautiful and you can clearly see they are well looked after! I had come here many years ago and it has changed slightly but in my opinion it's improved. I Would recommend to anyone, if you have even half a personality you will love it! If your dull and don't know how to have fun then don't bother 😅

Pleasantly surprised after reading other reviews - Hesitant to go after reading review but pleasantly surprised.
I’ll start with the bad points. You get held for too long to get drinks. The food is reasonable given the huge amount of people. If you vegetarian it’s a veggie lasagne that looks like a toasted cheese sandwich layered in cheese. There’s plenty to drink. We were fortunate enough to sit near a fan. These are spread out at regular spaces, however was a little concerned when they began spraying fine mist of water as if these pipes are not religiously disinfected to an extremely high standard then this is a risk for legionnaires disease. When I recognised water coming out I covered my drink with a napkin as was concerned about the risks of this happening. Luckily as I type this the following day nothing untoward has happened to me yet.
Anyway the show is very good and the skills of the horseman are incredible. I was a little concerned after reading one review about how stressed the horses looked and one even dies in the show (for real) so was slightly concerned. However it was clear the riders lived their horses so no concerns there.
I took my 16 year old son and his gf and they seemed to enjoy it. The audience participation is a must and everyone really got on board.
I would recommend this as a good place to take the family, however. I’d say drive yourself there and get there for about 7.15 as it starts about 7.45 by the time everyone is seated. Don’t get there at 6.30 as requested.

So so show. Great food. - My mother was in a wheelchair and the staff were very helpful.
The food was great.
The show itself was very repetitive but with great audience participation.
Excellent horse riding.
