Tenerife is one of the most popular destinations for UK travellers. So, we make sure that car hire in Tenerife is a seamless experience, starting with our friendly English-speaking agents. We cover the major areas and towns on the island, including Costa Adeje and both Tenerife North and Tenerife South Airports. With SIXT you can enjoy this sunshine paradise in one of our premium, yet affordable hire cars – our convertibles will enhance your exotic holiday experience, or you could explore the island with your family in an MPV with large windows. All of our cars are from top brands and only three months old on average, offering you affordable luxury to help you get the most out of your trip.
Our Tenerife car hire branches across the island offer you all types of vehicle suited to the local terrain. For scooting around quickly and hassle-free, choose a compact or economy model, and throw in a sat nav as a bookable extra to guide you. If a saloon or luxury car is more your style, the good roads on the island make these a pleasure drive. Travelling in a larger group or on holiday with the family? You can have a minibus or MPV, with child seats available as an extra you can book. And whether you need a weekly rental or a long-term rental, we have that and everything in-between.
Tenerife is one of the most popular places to visit in Spain due to its natural beauty and year-round sunshine. The island’s diverse landscape is made up of forests, rocky and sandy beaches, as well as Spain’s highest mountain and volcano, El Teide. Teide National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a must visit on the island, especially if you enjoy watching the sunset over the low-lying clouds, perfect for those time lapse video fans. A great place for hiking too, with green valleys and pine forests as well as the volcanic landscape to keep you company, with breathtaking views of Tenerife and the surrounding islands from the top. While for hikers, Masca Mountain is another fantastic route and one of the most popular. Another great activity in Tenerife is whale and dolphin watching, with daily boat excursions departing Los Gigantes, Los Cristianos and Las Americas beaches, where you can also enjoy a lovely beach day with the family. If you find yourselves near Los Cristianos, especially when travelling with children, it’s worth checking out Siam Park, which is a water-based amusement park with slides and an enormous wave pool.
With its year-long warm climate, you're not really restricted during winter, but this is perhaps the time to explore indoor spaces and do some sightseeing from your hire car. Drive over to the west coast to marvel at Los Gigantes, the 2,600 ft-high cliffs towering over the sea. Then there's the Museum of Nature and Man where you can discover Tenerife's aboriginal culture. The intriguing 19th-century Pyramids of Guimar are also well worth the drive in your hire car to this little town on the east side.
