The practical part
Here’s how to get there.
Start at Santa Cruz Intercambiador
Choose line 15 shown for La Laguna Intercambiador, rather than a service that only follows part of the northern corridor.

Check the day table
TITSA publishes separate working-day, Saturday and Sunday/holiday information. The timetable on this page has all three, each with the day it was read.

Walk from the interchange
La Laguna’s historic centre is known for its pedestrian streets, so use the interchange as your bus reference point and continue on foot.
Use the interchange endpoints
TITSA names Santa Cruz Intercambiador and La Laguna Intercambiador on line 15. Those endpoints make the route a clearer choice than a bus that only shares part of the TF-5 corridor.

Why visit La Laguna
WebTenerife identifies La Laguna’s historic centre as UNESCO World Heritage and highlights its walkable streets.
Tram line 1 as the alternative
Metrotenerife runs two tram lines in the Santa Cruz–La Laguna metropolitan area. Line 1, Santa Cruz–La Laguna, serves the main public offices, cultural and educational centres, hospitals and shopping areas of both cities, with separate weekday and weekend timetables at each stop. Line 2 runs across line 1, linking La Cuesta, Taco and Tíncer, the most densely populated districts of the two municipalities.
One card for bus and tram
TITSA says its ten+ Day and 7-day travelcards give unlimited trips on buses and the tram across the island, and that a ten+ Wallet balance is valid on both. Cards are sold at airport ticket machines, TITSA stations and the tram’s ticket machines.
