If you rent a car on Tenerife without this specially designed guide, you run the risk of missing the very best parts of the island. Real Tenerife Island Drives is about showing visitors to Tenerife that there's much more to this island than just the sun soaked beaches of the coastal developments. There's history, beauty, culture and tradition set in a landscape that varies from lava strewn crater, through pine coated forest and vine covered terraces to coastal banana plantations, rocky shores and fine sand, palm tree lined beaches.

May is marked by the Fiesta of the Cross, especially in Los Realejos and Puerto de la Cruz. Flypa has become a major part of the weekend's celebrations when the daytime skies are filled with the multicolored chutes of paragliders, the nights rock to fireworks and top Latino bands like Orishas and, if sunbathing on beautiful Socorro beach, you can never be sure who, or what might drop in.
