Our Service
We have a large amount of useful extras to make car hire in the Canary Islands a breeze. Our range of convertibles available at each branch on the islands are perfect for driving with the top down, to fully immerse yourself in the glorious weather. Plus, you won't get lost with one of our handy Sat Nav systems. Families are well-catered for, with roomy estates and minibuses, and child seats are available to hire. We also offer benefits such as unlimited mileage, so you can explore the islands to your heart's content; and the driving can be split among other passengers with our additional driver package. We also have an app that can be used at certain branches, that allows our customers to place a booking, add extras, and reserve a vehicle- even up to 30 minutes before collection.
Traffic Information
Visitors arriving at Fuerteventura Airport will need to head out on the FV-2 motorway to reach nearby areas such as Puerto del Rosario. This motorway travels all the way up the east coast of the island, connecting most of the small tourist seaside towns.
If you're flying into Lanzarote Airport, the LZ-2 motorway will take you to Arrecife, which is only a short drive away. This motorway connects most of the major towns and cities on the island, but you may need to take smaller roads to reach the west coast- this is where a Satnav system may come in handy!
La Palmas Airport is not connected to any major motorways but is close to several smaller roads. The LP-5 will take you north, with the LP-2 heading south. The main city, Santa Cruz de la Palma, is just a few miles north of the airport.
Finally, we have the well-connected Tenerife branch at the Tenerife South Airport. Visitors will need to take the TF1 motorway, which will take you directly to famous tourist areas such as Playa de las Americas, as well as the major city of Santa Cruz de Tenerife in the north.
Sixt Tip
The Canary Islands have been a hugely popular tourist destination, and it's easy to see why. Packed with family-friendly fun, each island offers something a little different. This group of four islands is located off the coast of Africa, but are a Spanish territory; blending various cultures with the hot, sunny weather of north-western Africa. Thanks to the huge influx of tourism, the Canary Islands may feel like a home away from home. Although you will find traditional Spanish food and the aforementioned stunning weather, many locals speak English and it's possible to find home comforts in the variety of pubs, shops and restaurants.
Sightseeing Destinations
When you hire a car in the Canary Islands, it is easy to reach a variety of beautiful seaside towns filled with fun attractions. Whether you fancy venturing out of your resort for a few hours, or a whole weekend, there is so much to see and do. On the island of Tenerife, just hop in the car for a short journey to reach Playas de las Americas. It is one of the most popular places to visit, due to its bustling centre and sandy beaches.
