Gran Canaria - traveling to Puerto Rico by bus

Traveling by bus is cheap in Spain. For example traveling to PUERTO RICO, the ticket costs about 2.50€, and it takes about half an hour. Many tourists use bus or even rent a car or motorcycle.
Petrol prices are in Gran Canaria and on the Canary islands much cheaper than on the European continent. One liter of petrol costs less than 90 cents. Tourists who rent a car or motorcycle to drive by themselfes,have a much higher accident risk. Often the roads are unknown serpentine. But the bus drivers in Gran Canaria know the routes well, so traveling by bus is much more safe.

In 'Playa del Ingles' at the bus-terminal FARO-II near the hotel Tropical Garden', you can start your trip. Boarding is always possible, for example at the 'Avenida de Tirajana'. After the big road 'Avenida de Tirajana' in 'Playa del Ingles' you pass SONNENLAND, then you reach the bus terminal FARO-I in Maspalomas.

The bus ride continues from Maspalomas to ARGUINEGUIN. In Arguineguin live many spanish locals and it is very different to the tourist center in 'Playa del Ingles' and Maspalomas. Between Arguineguin and PUERTO RICO there are some interesting hotel facilities.

Much tourism, as before in Maspalomas, it is then again in PUERTO RICO.
