Tenerife: Loro Parque & Siam Park Entry Ticket with Transfer

Tenerife’s best family double act is a full day at Loro Parque followed by a separate day at Siam Park. One ticket gives you parrots, orcas, dolphins, sea lions, orchids, and animal exhibits in Puerto de la Cruz, then a Thai-themed water park packed with slides and wave pools.

I like two things right away: transport to Loro Parque is included, which saves you the trouble of crossing the island from Costa Adeje or Playa de Las Américas, and the twin ticket gives you the freedom to visit Siam Park before or after the zoo. The main catch is the coach journey. With many hotel-area pickups, the ride can take close to two hours each way, and sometimes longer on the return.

• Two separate park days: Use one ticket for Loro Parque and another for Siam Park, in whichever order suits your holiday.
• South Tenerife pickup: Collection is available around Playa de Las Américas, Costa Adeje, and Los Cristianos, though your bus stop may be a short walk from your hotel.
• Loro Parque’s animal shows: Plan around the orca, dolphin, sea lion, and parrot presentations, with plenty of time for birds, orchids, and other exhibits.
• Siam Park’s long queues: Arrive early if you want the biggest selection of slides, and consider a fast pass if waiting in the sun is not your idea of fun.
• Simple second-park entry: Fingerprints are taken at the first park, then checked with your valid ticket at the second park.
• Good family value: At $115 per person, the package can be a practical buy if you want both parks and need transport to Puerto de la Cruz.

Two Tenerife parks, two very different days

This package works because the parks do not feel like copies of one another. Loro Parque is a landscaped zoo and animal attraction built around exhibits, gardens, and scheduled shows. Siam Park is a full-on water-ride day, with slides, raft rides, a wave pool, and quieter places to float or rest.

You should allow two separate days rather than trying to squeeze both into one. The ticket is designed that way, and it gives each park the time it needs. Choose the Loro Parque date as your reservation date, because that is the date tied to the included coach transfer. You can visit Siam Park before or after.

At $115 per person, the value depends on your plans. If you already intend to visit both parks, adding the Loro Parque transfer makes this much easier than arranging separate admission and transport. If you only want one attraction, this is not the right ticket.

The package is especially useful for families staying in the south. Siam Park is close to the main resort area, while Loro Parque is in Puerto de la Cruz, on the opposite side of the island for most south-coast visitors. The included bus turns a potentially awkward day into a straightforward one, even if it does not make the island any smaller.

The coach from Costa Adeje to Puerto de la Cruz

Pickup is available from hotel areas in Playa de Las Américas, Costa Adeje, and Los Cristianos. You need to give the supplier your hotel name when booking. The exact meeting point may be nearby rather than at the hotel entrance, so check the confirmation email carefully, including the spam folder.

The coach collects people at several stops. That is convenient for a wide group of hotels, but it is also the reason the journey can be slow. Some pickup runs take just under two hours from Playa de Las Américas. Other journeys have taken longer because of extra stops and the order in which passengers are collected and returned.

The return trip deserves special attention. Depending on where you are in the drop-off sequence, it can be around one hour and forty minutes or close to three hours. One practical tip is to bring water. Drinks inside the park can cost more than you expect, and you will want something for the ride home.

The upside is that you do not need to drive, find parking, or work out the island’s roads. Several pickup runs have been reported as prompt and well organized, and the local team has sent clear directions and bus information through WhatsApp. Contacts mentioned in connection with bookings include Natalia and Rodrigo, while Cori has led an English-language park experience for some visitors. The exact staff member you meet can vary.

Bring comfortable shoes. You will be on your feet for much of the day, and Loro Parque alone has enough to see that a quick stroll is unlikely to do it justice.

Making the most of Loro Parque

Loro Parque is the more time-sensitive part of the package. You are taken to the park in the morning and given several hours before the return coach, with one common schedule allowing access until around 4 pm. That is generally enough to see the main areas and scheduled shows, but families with young children may need to choose carefully.

Start by checking the show timetable. The orca and dolphin presentations are major draws, and the sea lion and parrot shows add a lighter, family-friendly rhythm to the day. If you simply wander first and look at the schedule later, you may end up crossing the park to catch a presentation or missing one altogether.

The orca show can be wet, particularly in the lower seating areas. A €3 poncho has been useful for some visitors, and you may want to sit farther back if you would rather keep your clothes dry. Getting splashed is part of the fun for many people, but it is better to know before you take your seat.

Between shows, allow time for the bird areas, other animal exhibits, and the orchid garden. The park is clean and carefully maintained, with enough detail to reward a slower walk. If you enjoy birds and gardens, you may find the quieter sections just as satisfying as the headline presentations.

I would not treat Loro Parque as a quick stop. The attraction’s appeal comes from combining the shows with the exhibits and gardens. A short visit focused only on the orca presentation would leave out much of what you paid for.

Food is available inside the park. One useful price reference puts lunch at roughly €10, although menus and prices can change. Water may feel expensive, so carrying what you are allowed to bring is sensible.

The main drawback is the distance from the south. A long coach ride cuts into the day, and delays can happen when the bus is collecting passengers. Still, the park itself usually earns the travel time for people who want animal presentations and a full zoo day. Plan to arrive with a clear idea of the shows you want, then use the gaps to explore.

Using the twin ticket at both entrances

The ticket system is simple, but you need to treat the ticket as valuable. You receive a combined ticket or QR code for both parks, and you still need to present a valid ticket at each entrance.

At the first park, staff take your fingerprints for identity control. The second park uses the fingerprint check along with the ticket, so remember which finger was scanned and keep the ticket available. This is not a reason to worry, but it is one more detail to understand before you arrive.

Your selected entry dates cannot be changed after booking because each park controls capacity. Pick your Loro Parque date carefully, since that date also controls the coach transfer. Then decide if you want to visit Siam Park on the previous day or the following day.

The arrangement is handy for a two or three-day stay in Tenerife. You can put Siam Park on a day when you want to stay near the south coast, then use the coach for the longer trip to Loro Parque. It also spreads two demanding days apart, which is easier on children and adults alike.

Siam Park: slides, queues, and Thai-style design

Siam Park is the high-energy half of the ticket. The setting uses Thai-inspired buildings and decoration, while the attractions range from family rides to serious slides. The Wave Palace, Naga Racer, Mai Thai River, Kinaree, Bodhi Trail, and Coco Beach are among the named attractions visitors have enjoyed.

There is plenty for different ages, but height, health, and confidence matter. The biggest slides may not suit everyone, and pregnant women cannot use all the slides for health and safety reasons. If you are visiting with children, check the ride rules at the park and expect to divide your time between gentle attractions and more intense rides.

Queues are the biggest variable. On a quiet day, some people get through rides with waits of 15 minutes or less. In busy periods, waits of 30 to 40 minutes are possible, especially for popular slides. That can mean a lot of standing in the sun, so arrive early and decide which rides matter most.

A fast pass can help, but it is not included in this package. One visitor reported paying about €27 for one, though prices may change. Fast passes can sell out, so arriving around 9:30 or 10 am has been suggested as a practical strategy. You can also choose to skip the extra cost and accept a slower pace.

Do not assume you need a fast pass to have a good day. Some people have managed all the main rides without one, particularly by arriving early or visiting at a less crowded time. The right choice depends on your priorities. A family with one day in the park and a long wish list may value the extra expense. A group happy to swim, relax, and choose rides as queues change may not.

The park can be hot underfoot in places. Water shoes are available to buy, and a waterproof phone holder is a useful extra if you want to keep your phone with you. These are optional purchases, but comfortable footwear and sun protection make a clear difference.

What the schedule feels like with children

The package suits families because both parks offer more than one type of activity. At Loro Parque, children can move between animal exhibits, gardens, and shows. At Siam Park, they can use family attractions and water areas while older children or adults tackle bigger slides.

The pace can still be tiring. A full day at Loro Parque involves walking and waiting around show times, while Siam Park adds queues, stairs, wet surfaces, and repeated climbs to slide entrances. Comfortable shoes are not a minor detail.

If you have small children, build in pauses and do not try to see every show or ride. One young couple reported seeing everything they wanted at Loro Parque within the available hours, while a family may need longer or a more selective plan. That is normal, not a flaw in the ticket.

The bus journey can be harder for very young children, particularly on the way home. Bring drinks and anything your family needs for a long ride. The benefit is that you can sit back instead of managing the drive after a tiring day.

Where the package saves money and where it does not

The strongest value comes from combining both admission tickets with Loro Parque transport. If you are staying in the south and would otherwise need to arrange your own journey north, the package removes a major practical task.

The $115 price is less compelling for someone who only wants Siam Park or only wants Loro Parque. It is also worth remembering that lunch, drinks, and any fast pass are extra. You may also spend more on water shoes, a poncho, or a waterproof phone case if you decide you need them.

Still, the package covers the two main costs most people are comparing: admission to both parks. The included coach is particularly useful because Loro Parque is not a quick hop from the south. For a family, the saving in time spent organizing transport may matter as much as the ticket price.

The parks also give you two distinct types of day. You are not paying twice for similar entertainment. Loro Parque is slower and more exhibit-focused, while Siam Park is active and ride-led. That contrast helps the ticket feel worthwhile over a longer holiday.

Who should book this twin ticket?

I would recommend it to families, couples, and groups staying in south Tenerife who already want to visit both parks. It is also a good fit if you do not want to rent a car or plan a complicated island crossing.

You should think twice if you dislike long coach rides, dislike animal shows, or have no interest in water rides. The journey to Loro Parque is the unavoidable trade-off, and Siam Park can test your patience during busy periods.

For a short holiday, choose your dates carefully. Put Siam Park on the day that best matches your energy and weather plans, then reserve Loro Parque for the date when you can handle the coach and a full day on your feet. Once the dates are selected, they cannot be changed.
