It makes sense to rent a car in Tenerife. The roads are great, the price of petrol is reasonable and there’s nothing quite like the freedom of your own four wheels. Cheap car hire in Tenerife is easy to find at any time of the year, bringing the whole island into view without putting a dent in your bank balance.
Language: Spanish | Currency: Euros (€) | Avg. Flight time: 4.5 hrs
Whether you fly into Tenerife North Airport (TFN) or Tenerife South Airport (TFS), you can collect your Tenerife car rental directly from the airport. North Tenerife car hire is handy for holidays in Tenerife destinations such as Puerto de la Cruz (25-minute drive), while a rental car from Tenerife South enables easy access to the resorts of Costa Adeje, Playa de las Americas (both 15-20 minutes away), and Los Gigantes (40 minutes by road).
After customs, you’ll find international car hire brands, including Avis, Europcar and Hertz, as well as a number of local car hire firms.
It’s best to book online in advance, where you can check for hidden extras and be sure that you’re getting a cheap deal. Not only that, but arranging cheap Tenerife car hire in advance will make the arrival process much quicker, getting you behind the wheel and away from the airport in half the time.

Car hire firms with desks at Tenerife South Airport include:
Rent a car in Tenerife, and you can explore parts of the island that other tourists just can’t reach, giving you the chance to get beyond the guidebook. Discover abandoned fishing coves, moon-like volcanic plains, hidden villages and remote vineyards, all at your own pace.
If you’d prefer to give it a day or so before hopping in a Tenerife hire car, there are plenty of other places to pick up your wheels. In addition to both airports, Avis and Europcar offer convenient car hire pick-up points in Playa de las Américas and Puerto de la Cruz, as well as a couple of smaller towns. This means that whether you’re staying north or south in 2024 you’ll never be far from your own set of car keys.
There’s far more to the island than beaches, something that will become instantly clear when you get behind the wheel of your hire car in Tenerife.
On a sunny day, nothing beats the road trip into Mount Teide National Park, riddled with hairpin bends and rapidly changing landscapes. Far more memorable than sitting on a sweaty tour bus, cheap Tenerife car rental gives you the chance to make photo stops and pause for picnics, giving you all the freedom of the open road.

No, excess insurance is not a condition of car hire in Tenerife. But without it, you are liable to pay a higher excess should you damage the car. Rental companies usually offer excess insurance at the desk, but it may be cheaper to sort out a policy with a third-party insurer.
Yes, you can rent a car with a debit card in Tenerife, but it is not always easy. Many rental companies insist on taking a credit card as security. It’s always best to check before you book. Whatever card you use, you need enough funds to cover the cost of the booking and the security deposit.

At Tenerife South Airport, you’ll find AutoReisen, Cicar, Hertz, Europcar, Goldcar and InterRent, Sixt and TopCar.
