About Renting a Car at Tenerife Las Chafiras

Las Chafiras lies in southern Tenerife's industrial heart, near the motorway TF-1, and is an excellent starting point for exploring the entire island. From here you can reach Los Cristianos and Las Américas in just a few minutes, while the magnificent Teide volcano and the national park of the same name await after approximately one hour's drive north along TF-28. Take the coastal road east towards El Médano, a relaxed beach resort known for windsurfers, which is just a couple of kilometers away.

If you want to experience the green and humid northern side, drive TF-1 towards Santa Cruz and continue towards the Anaga peninsula, where dramatic mountain trails and ancient laurel forests offer a completely different Tenerife than the sunny south.

We compare prices from all major providers at Tenerife Las Chafiras so you can see the total cost upfront - including insurance, fuel terms and any extras. Most bookings include free cancellation up to 48 hours before pickup, giving you flexibility if your plans change.
