Details

Tenerife, the largest of Spain’s Canary Islands, offers a dramatic blend of volcanic landscapes, vibrant coastline, and cultural richness centered around Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Renting a scooter from Get Holiday gives adventurers the chance to traverse this varied terrain with ease, from the island’s bustling capital streets to its rugged black sand beaches and scenic landmarks.

Get Holiday specializes in three-day scooter rentals featuring reliable models from Piaggio and Honda. This mode of transport strikes a balance between freedom and practicality, allowing visitors to cover more ground efficiently without the constraints of public transit or the hassle of larger vehicles. The open road reveals Tenerife’s distinct lava rock formations etched by millennia of volcanic activity, alongside the lush greenery of forested ravines and the glistening Atlantic surf cutting into the shore.

Riders can practically craft their own itinerary, stopping to admire natural highlights like Playa Jardín’s striking black sand or the historic streets of La Laguna, a UNESCO World Heritage site a short ride away. The island’s unique microclimates mean a quick climb inland transports you from warm sea breezes to wind-cool mountain air near El Teide National Park, home to Spain’s highest peak.

What makes Get Holiday a standout in Tenerife’s outdoor scene is its blend of accessible transportation with the thrill of independent discovery. Motorbike rentals provide more than mobility—they invite a deeper connection to the island’s diverse environments, from volcanic seabeds to age-old towns. The company’s hands-on approach and quality fleet enhance safety and enjoyment, helping travelers maximize every day under the Canarian sun.

Adventure Tips

Carry a valid driver’s license

Ensure you have a motorcycle or scooter license valid in Spain to avoid interruptions during your rental.

Bring a helmet – safety first

Although helmets are provided, bringing your own can ensure a better fit and added comfort on longer rides.

Monitor weather forecasts

Sudden changes in weather can happen, especially near higher elevations, so check forecasts before heading out each day.

Fuel stops are limited inland

Fill up in Santa Cruz or other coastal towns, as gas stations are sparser near mountainous routes.
