Tenerife Carnival 2024 – Travel with children tips
Look for accommodation away from the capital (hotels raise prices significantly).
Travel with us and Club Canary – you won’t have to worry about how to get there, where to park your car, etc. Why should you choose a transportation service? It can be difficult to find your way around the carnival. Public buses are often overcrowded. Taxis are hard to catch and expensive. If you drive yourself, prepare for long traffic jams, tiresome search for parking. Our partner transfer service is the best choice as it will ensure that you are close to the festival without any worries. With our discount code, you will get an additional discount when traveling with children!
You can also go to the capital by public transport. You can find public transport schedules on the TITSA page.
Carnival Museum
While visiting the capital’s carnival events, visit the Carnival Museum too.
The museum has a permanent exhibition with costumes and unique elements of the carnival. Without a doubt, a visit to the Casa del Carnaval will be a unique experience thanks to the various digital programs that allow the visitor to experience how Carnival is celebrated in Tenerife.
Registration for a visit is available here. Visiting the museum is free. Online pre-registration is required. Open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. You will find the exact coordinates in our “Traveling with Children ®” Tenerife attractions map.
