Tenerife North & South, Self-drive

Puerto de la Cruz → Santiago del Teide 8 days Up to 60

About this trip

This is a self-drive route around Tenerife, taking in the island's north and south at your own pace. You get a hire car and a route to follow, with the freedom to stop where you like.

Expect a mix of volcanic landscapes, old town streets and coastal villages, from the lava fields of Teide to the cliffs above Masca.

It suits families or couples who want to see a lot of the island without joining a group, moving between bases over the eight days.

What you'll do

  • Walk the historic streets of La Orotava
  • Drive through the volcanic landscapes of Teide National Park
  • See the ravines and cliffs around Masca
  • Explore Puerto de la Cruz's old town and fishing pier
  • Time on Tenerife's beaches
Good to know
  • Self-drive and self-guided — you need a valid licence and are happy navigating on your own
  • Easy pace, well suited to families
  • Private trip, so it runs on your own schedule rather than with a group
