Plan the Perfect Days Out in Tenerife (For Families)

Not sure what to choose? Here’s how to pick the right experiences for your family

🌴 Two of Tenerife’s best family days out

When visiting Tenerife with children, two experiences come up again and again:

  • Siam Park
  • Loro Parque

Both are incredible — but they offer completely different types of days.

👉 Choosing the right one (or combining both) can make a big difference to your holiday.


💦 Siam Park – A big, exciting day

Best for energy, fun and unforgettable moments

Siam Park is all about:

  • Water slides and family rides
  • Beach-style relaxation areas
  • A full day of activity

👉 It’s usually the most exciting day of the holiday

Works best if:

  • Your kids love water and adventure
  • You want a “wow” experience
  • You’re visiting on a hot, sunny day

Things to consider:

  • It can be busy (especially in peak season)
  • A bit more planning helps avoid queues
  • Younger children will still enjoy it, but pacing is important

🦜 Loro Parque – A relaxed, easy day

Best for slowing down, exploring and enjoying together

Loro Parque offers:

  • Animal encounters and shows
  • Shaded walking areas
  • A calmer, more flexible pace

👉 It’s often the most relaxing day of the holiday

Works best if:

  • You have younger children
  • You want a break from busy, high-energy days
  • You’re visiting on a cooler or cloudy day

Things to consider:

  • The park is large — take your time
  • Planning show times helps you get the most out of it

🔄 Why they work so well together

This is the part most people don’t realise:

👉 These parks are not competitors — they complement each other perfectly

  • One is high energy
  • One is low stress
  • One is in the south
  • One is in the north

Together, they give you:
✔ Variety
✔ Balance
✔ Two completely different experiences


🎯 What most families do (and why it works)

Families who enjoy their holiday the most usually:

  1. Do Siam Park first (while energy levels are high)
  2. Take a rest day
  3. Then enjoy Loro Parque at a slower pace

👉 This avoids tired children and makes both days more enjoyable


⚠️ Common mistakes to avoid

  • Trying to do too much in one day
  • Visiting Siam Park without a plan (queues build quickly)
  • Not checking show times at Loro Parque
  • Booking everything too close together

👉 A little planning makes a big difference


💡 So… which should you choose?

If you want one standout day:

  • 👉 Choose the one that fits your child’s energy level

If you want the best overall experience:

  • 👉 Do both, on separate days

That’s how you get:

  • One exciting day
  • One relaxed day
  • A better overall holiday
