Spend about six hours at Loro Parque after pickup from southern Tenerife.

“Overall experience was good - enough time to explore Loro Park and clear communication. Only thing to consider is the time spent in the bus - for us it was 2+ hours per trip (4,5 h round trip) as the pick ups take time. Also there is no food policy in the bus. We left 8:15 am and got back around 7:15 pm (from Princess Inspire hotel).”
