Your Fast and Scenic Route

- The TF-1 Motorway: Your taxi leaves the airport and joins the TF-1 motorway, heading directly west on a smooth, fast-moving 15-kilometre stretch.
- The Volcanic Horizon: Look out to the right to spot the striking, arid volcanic hillsides that define Tenerife's unique southern landscape.
- Costa Adeje Backdrop: As you near your destination, the spectacular peaks of the Adeje mountain range rise up ahead in the distance.
- Direct Resort Access: Your driver will exit the motorway directly onto local links like the TF-481, bypassing the busiest traffic routes to drop you straight at your hotel or apartment doorstep.

Private door-to-door transfers between Tenerife Airport and Playa de las Americas start from £10.00. Meet & greet in arrivals is included on every booking.
Every transfer has a dedicated vehicle — you don't share the car with strangers, you don't wait for other flights, and the price you see at booking is the total you'll pay.
One trusted driver from arrivals to your door
A shared shuttle drops six or seven parties off along the way — yours is usually last. A private transfer is you, your luggage, the driver, and the road. The 20-minute run to Playa de las Americas is exactly that, no detours to other hotels.
Especially useful with children, older travellers or an early-hours arrival at Tenerife Airport when the last thing anyone wants is a group waiting-game outside the terminal.
Most people arrive at Tenerife Airport for Playa de las Americas with more luggage than they think — suitcases, buggies, duty-free bags, and the odd surfboard in season. The vehicles we use on this route carry the family + bags without the roof-rack gymnastics you'd get from a smaller car.
Car seats can be added at the extras step; if you need one and your booking is close to pickup, drop us a note and we'll radio the driver directly.
Planning the return leg
For the return from Playa de las Americas to Tenerife Airport, we suggest a pickup around three hours before your flight time — enough of a buffer for the 20-minute drive plus airport check-in and any queue at security.
Booking both legs together at the point of purchase gets you the round-trip fare, one confirmation email, and one driver number for the whole trip.
