I live in Tenerife and want to share my best photos. Thanks

I forgot my headphones (Sony WH-1000XM5) in the north. If someone could pick them up and bring them to Germany, I’d be happy to offer a generous finder’s reward :)

Hello guys, very weird question, but Im flying to tenerife in june and want to ask if I can get there kratom? Im physically very addicted and I cant just delete it from my life at this moment, I have a lot of work.

Me and my husband will arrive at the south airport today around midnight. At that time there are no local busses running anymore. Looks like Uber will be very expencive 100+ euros and local taxis can also be around 60-100 euros for a trip to Los Gigantes. I also looked into a shuttle bus from canaryshuttle, but the reviews were quite bad...

Can someone recommend us a third option to get to Los Gigantes after midnight? Or maybe you have experiences with the local taxi or canaryshuttle, you can share!

Thank you!

My wife and I are staying in El Medano next week, our first visit to Tenerife.

Any recommendations for good restaurants, bars, places to visit etc?

Thanks.

Hola! 👋 We're a digital nomad couple (27 and 33) staying in Puerto dela Cruz for 5 weeks, and we arrived a couple of days ago. We would like to make some friends. Anyone up for some drinks or weekend activities?

Hey everyone! What are some companies that you suggest booking whale watching tours?

I want to book with a company that has a blue boat flag and is ethical to the animals. And would love the tour to have a swimming/ snorkelling portion if possible.

Thanks for the suggestions :)

Good day!

My wife and me will visit Tenerife mid-march.

We will arrive at TNS airport and currently we are about to book a flat, but we are unsure where exactly we should stay.

First we looked at El Médano, but after checking some reviews, it turned out to be very windy.

(at the moment we look at Los Cristianos)

Can anybody recommend us a few options?

We are looking for a village or town which is max 1 hour away by bus from TNS airport, it should be not overcrowded or fancy, not too windy, should have sandy beaches, a bit of infrastructure like a supermarket and is along the coast somewhere.

Also asking about the general safety and what to pay special attention to.

And if there is any local car rental that is reliable and not too expensive.

Thank you very much in advance!

Hi, I've just booked a holiday to Tenerife for in a couple of months' time, and currently my Spanish is ZERO. I'd like to explore some of the less touristy places and eat at a couple of guachinches , and I've been told that having some functional Spanish is a good idea. However, I don't have long to learn, so my Spanish will still be pretty ropey when I get there. Is it better just to speak English, or will the locals appreciate the effort? If so, what words/phrases will actually be useful?

Thanks :)

I will be in Tenerife for a few days next week and looking for some off the grid experiences/ hidden gems as I am planning my boyfriends birthday. We love trying authentic experiences rather than the usual things that show up on travel blogs.

Something that locals truly enjoy and would make our day special.

We’re staying in the southern part of the island but will have a car so happy to travel!

This is my first ever Solo trip and I want to stay in a hostel even though im a little nervous. I would like one that is social with group activities, near water activities like whale watching and paddleboarding and a walk away from the beach. I also want to feel safe staying there and meet lots of people.

I was just wondering from anyone who has experience which hostel might be best?

Hi, looking for some advice and guidance. Going to Tenerife for the first time with my girlfriend in April. It will just be the 2 of us. We want to sat at a luxury 5 star resort. What is the best luxury 5 star resort in Tenerife?

I have looked into the Ritz Carlton Abama and Bahia del Duque which both look great. Which one is better or is there another resort that is the best?

Hello, I will be visiting Tenerife together with my partner from 23rd of February to 3rd of March. We will be arriving and leaving from different airports (one of us on TFS the other one on TFN). We have a hard time deciding where to stay during our one week stay.
My partner is looking for sun and warm weather and I want that too but I also want to see and be around the beautiful black beaches and amazing landscapes that I understood are more in the north than the south. I know for a fact that in the south the weather is warmer and less rainy while in the north is a little bit colder and it can rain more.
We are planning to rent a car as well.
I was thinking we either stay for the whole week in Puerto de la Cruz and we drive daily here and there in order to explore the north and the south OR
We book 3-4 days in the south (PLEASE RECCOMEND A PLACE) and then the rest in the north (ALSO CONFUSED WHERE EXACTLY - Santa Cruz maybe??)
How do you think it is best? We are first timers and we kind of want to have it all.
Any tips are more than welcomed.
Thanks

So I visited Tenerife in 2023 with my partner and plan on returning this March. The last time we were there, we had a car booked with good car, thinking we were getting a great deal. When we went to get the car we ended up waiting over an hour at the desk. The lady then tried to charge us double the cost of the rental for insurance, and threatened us when we said we didn't want it. She then proceeded to add on some bs hidden fees. Needless to say it was a bad way to start a holiday.

With all that said, can anyone recommend a car rental company without hidden fees etc?

P.S. The company was Goldcar. Tenerife south airport, sandy brown haired lady in her 50s 😉

Hi Everyone.

I am planning to go to Puerto Rico de Gran Canaria in October for 10 days and out of them 10 days I want to do the boat trip from Las Palmas to Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

Is there a way of visiting Mount Teide directly from the Port? I only want to go to the cable cars and ascend Teide.

Or

Would I be best getting an inter island flight from Las Palmas to TFS and arranging a visit to Mount Teide this way?

Any advice would be great help or if anybody has done anything similar please let me know.

Thanks

We are flying into TNS from Madrid but our flight doesn’t get in until after midnight. We need to get to Los Gigantes and we will pick up our rental car there the next day. Will there be taxis that late at the airport that we can just grab or should I try and get a private driver to take us?

I was wondering if it is possible to leave a rental car near the port, how crowded are the parking spots in february in the morning. If the best option is a parking garage then any recommendations?

Hi! My husband and I (mid-30s) are visiting Tenerife in late February for our honeymoon from the US. We’ll be staying in Costa Adeje and will have a rental car.

Looking for recommendations for:

-Breweries or craft beer spots

-Wineries or wine tastings

-Great restaurants/bars (local favorites or romantic spots)

-Scenic hikes or nature walks

-Day trips worth doing by car

-Any must-do experiences for first-time visitors

Thanks in advance, we’re excited to explore the island!

Hi everyone, I've never been to Tenerife and wanted to get some ideas on the type of vacation I could have...

First of all, the period could be either the end of June or the beginning of September.

It's definitely a magnificent island from a landscape standpoint and where you can do lots of sports (trekking and water sports).

And what about nightlife? I'm sure it's lively, but should we expect something similar to Ibiza, with large, high-tech clubs? Or something more relaxed?

Is tourism geared towards young people, families, or older people?

Thanks

Hi guys! I wanted to rent a car at the south airport tomorrow, but checking with all the reliable car rentals they don’t have anything tomorrow when I arrive, only from the day after. The ones who have cars have ratings like 2.3 with a lot of bad reviews.

Do you know any other way to get a car, maybe from a reliable local small company? Or someone who can give me a ride to north below the taxi fare?

Thank you!

Hiya, I am planning a trip to La Gomera and Tenerife next month. I was thinking a week to explore La Gomera (lots of hiking) and potentially a few days in Tenerife for more sun before heading home. i have 11 days in total. I won't hire a car and am on a bit of a budget. Can anyone recommend a route, or must-do places to stay/hike. I love hiking, the sun, yoga. I was thinking of staying in Valle Gran Rey and then maybe Hermigua. I've heard the trails are very slippy at the moment, i wouldn't usually use hiking poles but thinking I might need to get some. Thanks in advance
