Cyclists book their own flights. Tenerife has 2 airports Tenerife South (TFS) which is 1 hour and 20 minutes away from the start and end Cycling Trip location (Puerto de la Cruz) and Tenerife North (TFN) which is 20 minutes away from us. We recommend arriving at TFN if possible. That will be possible, especially if you have a layover in Spain or Portugal.
If your flight is not a direct flight to Tenerife and you have a layover somewhere in Europe then pay attention to the layover time, it should be 3 to 4 hours ideally so you don’t miss your connection and you avoid luggage delay also.
The airport transfers are provided by the Hotel. All we need is for you to send us your name, the number of people traveling and the number of pieces of luggage, if you have the bike with you, the name of the airport you are arriving to (TFN or TFS), flight number and flight landing and take-off days and times.
The driver will wait for you outside the baggage claim area at the airport with a sign.
