Tenerife Off the Beaten Path – Sustainable Travel in a VW T3 Camper

Tenerife – Discover the Island Beyond Mass Tourism with a VW T3 Camper

Tenerife, the largest of the Canary Islands, is a paradise of contrasting landscapes, idyllic villages, and the majestic Teide – Spain’s highest mountain. But if you want to explore Tenerife beyond the crowded tourist hotspots, a campervan trip is the perfect alternative. Large hotel complexes overload the infrastructure, rising living costs hit the local population hard, and the environment suffers. With a VW T3 camper, you have the freedom to experience the island sustainably and authentically – far from the masses.

Why explore Tenerife with a VW T3 camper?

1. Travel sustainably and protect the environment

Hotels in Tenerife consume enormous amounts of resources – especially water and electricity. With a VW T3 camper, you have a compact, mobile home that is not only stylish but also resource-efficient. Our campers are equipped with practical features like solar panels, allowing you to travel sustainably and self-sufficiently.

2. Support the local economy

Instead of spending your money at large hotel chains, traveling by camper allows you to directly support the local economy:

  • Buy local products: Visit vibrant farmers’ markets like those in La Laguna or Tacoronte to buy fresh fruit, vegetables, and cheese directly from farmers.
  • Dine locally: Experience Canarian cuisine in small, family-run restaurants instead of relying on all-inclusive buffets. The legendary papas arrugadas with mojo sauce taste even better in a traditional guachinche.
  • Use campsites and camper spots: Stay at community-run camper spots or campsites like Monte de las Mercedes to support local infrastructure.

3. Enjoy the freedom of an authentic adventure

With a VW T3 camper, you’re flexible and can explore Tenerife beyond the usual tourist routes:

  • Teide National Park: Stay overnight near the famous volcano and witness an unparalleled starry sky.
  • Remote beaches: Drive to hidden beaches like Playa de Benijo in the Anaga Mountains, far from the crowds.
  • Charming villages: Visit picturesque places like Garachico or Masca, where you can still feel the authentic spirit of Tenerife.

4. Retro charm meets comfort

Our VW T3 campers are perfect for adventurers who love the feeling of freedom and appreciate style. With space for two to four people, a cozy sleeping area, and a practical camping kitchen, the camper offers everything you need for an unforgettable trip – with a touch of nostalgia.

Tenerife’s infrastructure is often overwhelmed by mass tourism. With a camper, you can explore the island without adding to the burden. Our VW T3 campers use eco-friendly systems, helping you reduce your environmental footprint.
