Travel and transport agencies Las Palmas De Gran Canaria

Car rental. Also at the airport

The Canarian company Binter Canarias allows you for your inter-island flights of Gran Canaria in Lanzarote, Tenerife and Fuerteventura. Attractive prices if you find boat trips too long.

Inter-island maritime transport, Iberian peninsula and Moroccan coast. Not much longer than Fred Olsen to reach Las Palmas from Tenerife and you avoid the Agaete-Las Palmas journey. If the new model no longer has a mini-terrace, to the great displeasure of users who regret it, the equipment remains correct: cafeterias, bars, television room. A mini-cruise for a low price that allows a nice overview of the different islands. The arrival is at Muelle Mandela, a little off-centre. But with taxis waiting a few meters from the boat.

From Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, it is from here that all the buses that serve the towns and villages of the whole island leave. A service provided by the company Global Salcai Utinsa. On its website, you will find all the information on routes and fares as well as the name of the stop that concerns you by entering your destination and your travel time. Some routes: 60 for the airport (direct) and 12 for Telde; 5, 30 and 50 for the faro of Maspalomas; 91 for Puerto de Mogan (direct); 11 and 21 for Aguïmes; 105 for Gáldar.

This shipping company is present in almost all the islands. From Las Palmas, it serves Fuerteventura with daily trips, arriving in Morro Jable, in the south of the island. As well as the island of Lanzarote, also with daily routes. You can also go to Tenerife, Santa Cruz, in the north of the island or Los Cristianos, in the south. This company has the reputation of having slightly faster routes than Naviera Armas, but this is not obvious. On the other hand, arrivals and departures are made from the port of Agaete.

Car rental. Also available at the airport.

This is a serious address to rent a car at a competitive price. Airport/port transfer (contact the agency 48 hours in advance); VIP service with driver (you will have to book a week in advance). All vehicle models are available, recent, well maintained, and of excellent value for money. Rental car rental is flexible, reservations are flexible, with the possibility of returning the vehicle to a different city. Several options are available: insurance, child seats, GPS and unlimited wifi on board.

Created in 1988 by Ibéria to serve the entire Canary Islands, this historic airline company allows you to make your inter-island flights, from the Canary Islands to Lanzarote (a dozen daily direct flights per day), to Fuerteventura (more than a dozen direct flights per day) or to Tenerife (a quarter of direct flights per day). For the other islands, there will often be flights with stopover in Tenerife South. If you wish to continue the adventure to Senegal, please note that it also offers direct flights to Dakar.

You will soon learn that this is what buses are called in the Canary Islands. Yellow in colour, they cross the whole city and are an economical way to travel the longest distances. You will find the main stops near the Pérez-Galdós Theatre and San Telmo Park, close to the Triana and La Vegueta districts, or at Santa Catalina Park, close to the Paseo de las Canteras and the boat terminals. Lines 1, 12, 13 and 17 will take you from the beach to the old quarters.

Created in 2008, this company, headquartered in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, began with flights between the islands and the peninsula, but since 2012, it has been offering inter-island flights to the six other islands besides Gran Canaria. These prices are more or less identical to those of Binter, the oldest company on the market. You can also check out his promotions on his website. Prices are of course higher than those of boat trips, where they exist. On the other hand, the journeys will sometimes be shorter.
