Local Tips

  • Los Cristianos and Playa de las Américas resorts are very close — short, affordable taxi rides.
  • TITSA bus 711 connects TFS to Costa Adeje and Los Cristianos in ~25 min.
  • Uber doesn't operate on Tenerife — use Cabify or licensed taxi only.
  • TITSA Bonobús card saves significantly on TFS↔resort trips if you're making multiple bus rides during your stay.
  • TFS drivers prefer card payments; cash works but receipts are slower.
