Post by: Salbag777 on September 12, 2014, 16:45:56 PM
Does anyone know if any of the company's allow collection airport Fuerte then left at
Arrecife airport? I have friends coming over who want to do 2 weeks here then Lanz for last week. And anyone know ferry cost, obviously non resident!

Cicar certainly allow it, Autoreisen don't - you need to ask and you need to get their express permission to change islands, even if you're returning it to the same one. For the ferry prices, look at their sites: Armas and Fred Olsen. You may get slightly better deals from the port or from an excursion company but I don't suppose there will be a vast difference.

If you use Cicar, they have offices at both Corralejo and Puerto Del Carmen ports. You could do it as 2 separate bookings and then just get the ferry as foot passengers, that will save the cost of the car on the ferry. :D

I think Cicar have an office in Playa Blanca as well which is handier for the ferries.

You're right Tamara, I meant Playa Blanca. I always get those two mixed up.   :-[

Payless has its headquarters on Lanza, it works with them.
They also have an office at Playa Blanca

So is it possible to pick a car up at airport then leave it at harbour, if they want to go as foot passengers to Lanza then they can hire again?

Yes.
But only with the companies that either have an office at the harbour (Cicar) or a company that allows you to leave it there (payless but you have to ask(!))

Bear in mind that hiring a car for 7 days is nowhere near 7 times the cost of one day's hire. You can probably pay the small cost for it on the ferry and still end up quids in.
