Rental car
By far the most flexible. Toll-free motorways link both airports to all major resorts and to Teide. Allow 90 mins from south to Anaga. Park in resort hotels (most include free parking) and pay-and-display in old towns.

Getting Around Tenerife
Tenerife is the largest Canary Island — driving end-to-end takes two hours. Here's how to get around without losing half your holiday in transit.
Public transport
TITSA buses cover the entire island with the Ten+ card (€19 + per-trip 50% discount). Tranvía tram between Santa Cruz and La Laguna runs every 5 mins. Great for car-free urban stays.
Taxi and rideshare
Taxis are metered and reliable; no Uber. Cabify operates in Santa Cruz and parts of the south.
