They are pretty good and on time..they are also air conditioned which is good. If you are going to use them a lot while you are here then get a bono card, it gives you discount o the travel. _________________ Find out more at www.myspacetenerife.com

Try to avoid them when schools have just finished because you will feel like a sardine. And your journey will take longer.

I actually don't know cos mine all run out quickly seeing as I use so many buses - some days as many as 7 buses!
I totally recommend the Titsa buses apart from occasionally they don't run last buses and ones on Sunday to out of the way places.
In my experience this has happened 3 times, which isn't many in thousands of journeys. A last bus from Las Americas to Silencio failed to arrive, 2 buses out of Masca on a Sunday afternoon didn't turn up, and most recently a 3pm bus from Güímar on a Sunday also didn't show but the 4 o'clock one did!
The drivers are amazing and handle very steep climbs, hairpin bends and thick cloud on some mountain roads! |

When the cloud is thick enough you can't see anything much outside the windows including steep drops into valleys below so you don't have to think about how high it is! |

And then when you get above the clouds you can't see the drop either.
