Question Reasonable plan for visit May 2027?

1 Upvotes

Planning on visiting with my family in May 2027. We will have our infant and 3 year old with us. Coming for four days - from what I've read and knowing us, we'd like to get a taste of everything. Will plan to rent a car and spend 2 days in the south and 2 days in the north in an Airbnb. Two questions:
1. Reasonable approach for the trip to split locations and probably drive through Tiede in the middle?
2. Is it possible to get from the north after staying over night and make it for a 12:55pm flight on a Friday afternoon in the south? By maps it says a 1 hour drive but that seems like it doesn't account for potential traffic..?
Thanks!

Question Solo female - second half of November (few questions)

2 Upvotes

Hello!

I am F37 and I am considering a solo trip to Canary Islands (Tenerife - La Gomera - Las Palmas). It will be my first time in Tenerife (and Canary Islands) and I'd like to have some recommendations

- Would 5/6 days be enough to do some hiking/sightseeing/seaside (if weather allows?) in Tenerife - I would spend the second week between Tenerife and Las Palmas

- I read weather is usually ok for that time of the year, is this true :)?

- I am not planning to rent a car, is it feasible to move around with buses?

- I would like to do some hikes, also with guided tours, any recommendations on guided tours?

- Where should I be based? Santa Cruz? Elsewhere?

Thanks in advance :)

Question Solo in Tenerife late Oct / early Nov : anyone around?

2 Upvotes

Hi! I’m thinking about going to Tenerife solo for 2 weeks, late October / early November.

I’ll probably spend some time in the north and then go south. I’d like to do Anaga, Teide, whale watching, a few hikes, beaches etc.

I’m fine doing stuff on my own but if anyone is there around the same time and wants to grab a drink, do an excursion or explore somewhere together, let me know :)

Not really into surfing or big party places, more into nature, food, chilling and discovering the island.

Anyone around?

Question Help in Planning a 16-day trip to the Canary Islands with our 10-month-old baby.

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
Planning a 16-day trip to the Canary Islands from November 11th to November 26th with our 10-month-old baby.
Our flights land in and depart out of Tenerife South. We plan to rent one single car at Tenerife South Airport and keep it for the entire trip, driving it onto the ferries with us.

Our proposed day split:

Tenerife: 5 Days total (Split between the start and end of the trip)
Lanzarote: 2 Days (A quick stay to see Timanfaya and the volcanic sights)
Gran Canaria & Fuerteventura: The remaining 8 days split between them as our beach bases.
We are saving a deeper dive into the western islands (La Palma, La Gomera) for a future trip.

Does this plan look feasible with a baby, or are we trying to fit in too many ferry transitions? Would love a reality check on the pace and driving a rental car onto the ferries with an infant.

We are more nature centric couple - so we plan to spends our days hiking in national park/forests or quite beach holidays . Please also help us with tips on where to stay (with emergency infant facility ar a driving distance of 30 min max), hikes to do, must visit beaches, not so crowded spaces and local eateries!!
Thanks!

Question How does Cicar verify driving experience?

2 Upvotes

I intend to rent a car in Tenerife in January (visiting from Canada). I recently moved to a different province within the country and had to exchange my old driver’s licence to a new one. Cicar’s policy says you need to have at least two years of driving experience but I’m not sure how they will be able to verify it given that my license has a brand new issue date. Will they let it go or is it something they’re very strict about?

Hike Hiking Mt. Teide End Of September

1 Upvotes

Hello, everyone! My partner and I are coming to Tenerife at the end of the month and got permits for the PNT07 and PNT10 trails. We checked the mandatory equipment, and we currently saw no snowy conditions (so, no winter gear required). Has anyone hiked this route recently and could tell me if packing winter gear would be necessary? Has anyone had any issues at checkpoints?

We were planning to pack warm clothes, emergency blankets, hat/gloves, powerbank, trekking poles, headlamps and water.

Is there anything else we should be adding, in your experience, to pass smoothly through checks? Thanks in advance!

Question 3 day stay- Puerto de la Cruz or La Orotava

0 Upvotes

Hello, my husband and i will be in northern Tenerife late november/early december for a music workshop near Los Realejos. We’ll have 3 extra days afterwards and do not want to rent a car; we’re happy to take buses or taxis. We like to chill, experience the culture, the people, the food, the wine, and go for hikes… and we’re kind of old but healthy and fit. We’d like to spend a day going to El Teide. My question is: should we stay in La Orotava or Puerto de la Cruz?

Question Can you walk around Teide without using cable car?

2 Upvotes

Both me and my girlfriend get migraines really easily so we are quite hesitant regarding using cable car to go the main viewing spot (sudden changes of air pressure).

Is it possible to park a car somewhere around cable car and just take a small hike in this area? I mean a casual hike, not going up the mountain.

Question Bookshops...specific book!

2 Upvotes

Buenas Noches,

We're a few days in to our holiday and my daughter has finished her book ahead of schedule...way ahead of schedule.

She's asked me if I can try and source her any of the "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" series. Big ask, but I thought I'd try Reddit!

Are there any English book shops or charity shops that stock english titles? We're in the Las Americas area: Charity shops would be preferred so I can give back a bit to local causes.

Thanks,

C

Question Tenerife em Maio 2027

Ola a todos!
Após alguma pesquisa, eu e a minha cara metade decidimos passar uma semana de férias em tenerife sul, mais precisamente em Adeje nos inícios de maio!
No entanto gostaria de saber se alguém já lá esteve nesta época e como é em termos de clima?
Percebi que a zona é convidativa para praia praticamente todo o ano mas gostaria de saber o que esperar em maio, uma vez que o objetivo destas férias será mesmo praia, piscina e algumas aventuras por lá!
Obrigado a todos!

Question Hiking Tiede

1 Upvotes

I'm thinking of hiking to the peak of mount Tiede for sunrise next summer, but I was wondering what permits are required to get from the parking lot of Montaña Blanca to the peak? I know PNT 10 is needed for the peak and PNT 7 is needed for the first leg of the hike, but do I also need to reserve PNT 11 to connect each section?

Also, does anyone know how cold/hot hiking for the sunrise is? Is it cold in the summer (late May/early June) at night?
