Car Hire from Callao Salvaje - Poulsauto is a car hire company based in Callao Salvaje and 10 minutes walk from our apartment if you prefer the option of hiring a car part way through your visit.
Car Hire from the airport - We have used Autoreisen a number of times,and although some of the fleet is a little tired, we have had no major problems with them overall. A local company,usually the cheapest but expect a car with a few scrapes and dents (the norm in Tenerife!)
