KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in El Médano

  • Car hire in El Médano provides an ideal opportunity to explore the town and the greater Granadilla de Abona area of Tenerife without trying to figure out how the public transport system works or trying to find a taxi driver that'll take you everywhere without charging you a fortune. There are various places worth driving to that'll take less than an hour, including the famous Paisaje Lunar close to the centre of Tenerife, or Boca Tauce, which is about a 20-minute drive from Paisaje Lunar. You could also take a 45-minute drive towards the northern tip and check out Santa Cruz de Tenerife.
  • Most companies offering car hire in El Médano also provide services at Tenerife South Airport, which is likely to be your arrival and departure point, so is a great place to grab a hired car to avoid public transportation. Companies like Avis, Europcar and Goldcar all have company desks located in the Arrivals Hall on the Ground Level of the airport. Booking El Médano car hire online through KAYAK is one of the best ways to save money and time at the airport and have a representative meet you when you arrive as in-person hiring can be expensive.
  • The car hire process in El Médano is as easy as it gets, but driving on the streets can prove a little harder. The roads on the outskirts are well-maintained and wide enough to accommodate most vehicles, although inside the centre of El Médano, the roads become a lot more narrow and there are many cars parked along the side of the road. Pedestrians walk along the roads as if it were a pedestrian zone, and bicycles and motorbikes weave in and out. Remember to stick to the right-hand side of the road, which could take a bit of getting used to if you drive on the left at home.
  • The biggest difficulty with driving in El Médano is the narrow roads in the town centre and the lack of traffic lights and roundabouts to direct traffic. Avoid driving at night if you can, there is little lighting on the roads and it's difficult to see in the evening. Be aware of cyclists and pedestrians in and around the town centre, and take care when you're around local drivers who tend to change lanes without warning. Cars park along the side of the road in the town centre, which makes the streets narrower, so drive slowly in these areas.
  • Book your rental car in El Médano at least 4 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Economy rental cars in El Médano are around 23% cheaper than other car types, on average
