La Laguna, Tenerife

#1

Post by rita17 »

I have been looking for something to DIY on our forthcoming call at Tenerife. Wondered if anyone has taken the tram to La Laguna. If so, was it easy to do and was it worth going?

Yes we have done it a couple of times. You buy your ticket from a machine at any tram stop. The cost is €2.50 return. English instructions are available on the machine. The trams run about every five minutes and you want the one going up the hill to La Trinidad which is the Main Street in La Laguna. The journey takes about 35mins and there are some good views as you climb up the mountain. La Laguna is the old capital. Not a great deal to see but its interesting to walk around.

Thank you for your reply Brian. Think we'll give it a go seeing that you thought it worthwhile going there for a second time.

Just returned from our cruise where we used the tram to go to La Laguna where we spent a pleasant morning. It was easy to do although we couldn't work out how to buy a return ticket so paid for single tickets at 1.35 euros each.

Thanks again Brian for your helpful information.
