Tenerife Buses - TITSA - Transport

Most Tenerife buses (called guaguas pronounced 'wah wahs' by the locals) on Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain are run by TITSA. These Tenerife buses are very cheap, more comfy than many UK public buses.The Tenerife buses run frequently over the island's main roads. The bus service can be infrequent off the main roads.

Bus routes are called Lineas in Spanish.Buying a pre paid Bono Bus ticket approximately €12 euro for several trips saves between 30 to 50% of the fare, a great money saver.

A Tenerife bus route map and timetable is available. Check at the bus station near to the San Marino apartment complex in Los Cristianos see Map

www.titsa.com
On the titsa site select the Union flag.
Maps and timetables discount details are available on the website. Files can be downloaded.

A different Time table is available from Tourist information centres. The one for the Arona area has Maps showing the location of Tenerife bus stops in:

  • Los Cristianos, Playa de las Americana, San Eugenio (use for Puerto Colon), Torviscas, Playa del Duque
  • Las Galletas and Costa Del Silencio

Thebus services information on the 2 different sheets is displayed in different ways.  You may find it easier to use one over the other. 

Tenerife Information - Bono Bus - Save money

Bono Bus logoBono Bus is a pre paid ticket that allows you to have discount fares on Tenerife buses, the Green TITSA Tenerife buses on Tenerife, as follows:

  • Long  journeys  over  20 km 50% Discount
  • Short journeys under 20 km 30% Discount

The Bono Bus ticket is a card, slightly smaller than a credit card. You place the Bono Bus card into a small green machine near the bus driver, and tell the driver your destination. The Bono Bus card is printed with the discounted fare and the balance that is still available to be used on the card.

You can purchase Bono Bus Tickets from bus stations, bus terminals, and various retail outlets, often newsagents, look for the Bono Bus sign above right

Bono Bus Cost

Bono Bus Cards cost either €12.00 or €30.00.

Bono Bus Rules

The Bono Bus card can be used by more than one person
Valid until either the remaining balance is used up, the card becomes full (room for about 18 journeys) or valid for 1 year.
You can pay cash for the amount not covered by the Bono Bus card when the balance left on the card is small.

Buy the Bono Bus card from

Bus stations, and other outlets. A list is available on the Tourist information centre leaflets

Or ask locals they nearly all use the Bono bus card. You can't buy them on Tenerife buses.

 

Tenerife Information - Tenerife buses Tips on the bus routes

  • Each bus route (Lineas) has a number such as 473. The same number is used for Tenerife buses running in both directions on the route.
  • Because of one way streets or the layout of the bus routes, you can find that buses for both directions may use the same bus stops, or you may have bus stops several metres appart but on the same side of the road. Can be confusing so double check the bus destination on the front of the bus.
  • The route number and route is displayed on the front of the bus. The route includes where the bus came from and the destination. The lower name is the destination and on some Tenerife buses the lettering is larger for the destination. If you get on the wrong bus the driver will tell you.
  • The English of some drivers is not very good. Spanish pronunciations of destination names can be very different from English ones. Tip write down the destination name before hand and show to driver.
