Siam Park doesn’t really need an introduction, but here goes. Built on the southern coast of Tenerife in Costa Adeje, this Thai-themed water park has won TripAdvisor’s Travellers’ Choice award for the world’s best water park every year since 2014. Ten consecutive years. No other park has come close.
The stats are ridiculous. Tower of Power is a near-vertical 28-metre drop that sends you through a transparent tube running through an aquarium filled with sharks and stingrays. The Wave Palace generates the largest artificial waves in the world — up to 3.3 metres high. Singha is a water coaster that uses jet propulsion to shoot you uphill. And the lazy river? A kilometre long, winding through Thai pagodas and tropical gardens.
But here is what catches people off guard: the ticket options. There is a standard entry, an all-inclusive with food and fast passes, combo tickets with Loro Parque (Tenerife’s famous zoo), and various premium add-ons. The price difference between the cheapest and most expensive ticket is over $200. Getting the right one matters.
I have broken down the different ticket types, picked the three best options for different budgets, and added everything you need to know about timing, lockers, and strategy for hitting the best rides before the queues build up.

Siam Park Ticket Types Explained
There are more Siam Park ticket options floating around online than you would expect. Here is what actually exists and what the differences are.
Standard entry ticket gets you into the park with access to every ride, slide, pool, and attraction. No restrictions. The Wave Palace, Tower of Power, Singha, the lazy river — all included. What is not included: food, drinks, towels, and lockers. You pay for those separately inside the park.
All-inclusive ticket adds a meal (buffet lunch), unlimited soft drinks, a towel rental, a locker, and — this is the big one — preferential access to attractions. That preferential access is not quite the same as a fast pass at Disney, but it does let you skip the main queue and join a shorter priority lane on the popular rides. On a busy August day when Tower of Power has a 45-minute queue, this alone is worth the price difference.
Loro Parque combo ticket bundles standard entry to both Siam Park and Loro Parque (Tenerife’s zoo and aquarium in Puerto de la Cruz) at a discount compared to buying them separately. The ticket is valid across multiple days — you do not need to visit both parks on the same day. At $92 it saves you roughly $20 compared to two individual entries.
Ticket with transfer adds hotel pickup and drop-off by bus from the main tourist areas. Useful if you are staying outside Costa Adeje and don’t have a car, but the bus takes a while because it stops at multiple hotels. If you can get a taxi or drive, skip the transfer and save the money.
Premium/VIP options exist but they are aimed at a different crowd — private cabanas, personal lockers, reserved sunbeds. The cabana packages start at around $294 for two people. Nice if you are celebrating something, but overkill for a standard park visit.
The 3 Best Siam Park Tickets
I have gone through the ticket options and picked three that cover the range from budget to premium. All three are through GetYourGuide, which offers free cancellation up to 24 hours before your visit — useful when Tenerife weather is almost always fine but you want the flexibility anyway.
1. Siam Park Entry Tickets — $52
Access: Full park | Duration: Full day | Price: From $52 per person | Includes: All rides and attractions
This is the one most people should buy. Full access to every ride, slide, wave pool, and lazy river in the park for the entire day. No restrictions, no blackout times, no limited areas. You walk in, you ride everything.
At $52 per person it is not cheap for a water park, but consider what you are getting. Tower of Power alone would be worth the entrance fee for thrill seekers — a 28-metre near-vertical drop through a shark tank is not something you find anywhere else. The Wave Palace generates waves you can actually bodysurf. Singha is a water coaster that defies gravity. And between the big rides, the lazy river, the Thai Village kids area, and the Siam Beach give you places to rest without getting bored.
What you will need to budget separately: lockers (around 5-8 euros), towel rental if you didn’t bring one (3-5 euros), and food. The park has several restaurants and food stands. Prices are what you would expect from a theme park — not outrageous, but not cheap either. A burger and drink will run you 12-15 euros. Bringing your own food is not allowed, but you can bring water bottles.
This is the right ticket if you are happy queuing for rides and don’t mind buying lunch inside the park. For a family of four, the savings compared to the all-inclusive option add up fast — even after buying lockers and food separately.
2. Loro Parque and Siam Park Combined Tickets — $92
Access: Full day at each park | Validity: 14 days to use both entries | Price: $92 per person | Includes: Standard entry to Siam Park + Loro Parque
If you are spending more than a couple of days in Tenerife, you will probably end up visiting both parks. Siam Park is the water park. Loro Parque, up in Puerto de la Cruz on the north coast, is a world-class zoo and aquarium with orca shows, a penguin habitat, a gorilla enclosure, and one of the largest collections of parrots on the planet.
Buying them separately costs around $112 total. The combo saves you roughly $20 per person, which adds up quickly for families. The ticket gives you 14 days to visit both parks, so there is no pressure to cram them into one day or even consecutive days. Visit Siam Park on a sunny Tuesday, then hit Loro Parque on Friday morning. The flexibility is the main selling point.
One thing to know: the combo does not include bus transfers between the parks. Loro Parque is in the north of the island, about an hour’s drive from Costa Adeje. You will either need a rental car, a taxi (around 40-50 euros one way), or the public TITSA bus which takes about 90 minutes. Some third-party sellers offer a transfer add-on, but it is usually cheaper to arrange your own.
This is the right ticket if Loro Parque is already on your list. Don’t buy it just for the discount — only get the combo if you actually want to visit the zoo.
3. Siam Park All-Inclusive Entry Ticket — $194
Access: Full park with priority access | Duration: Full day | Price: $194 per person | Includes: Fast pass, buffet lunch, unlimited drinks, towel, locker
This is the ticket for people who hate queues. The all-inclusive adds preferential access to attractions, which means you skip the main line and join a much shorter priority queue. On a peak-season day when the standard queues hit 30-45 minutes for the big rides, you will be walking straight on or waiting 5 minutes at most. Over a full day, that time saving adds up to hours.
Beyond the fast pass, you get a buffet lunch at one of the park restaurants, unlimited soft drinks throughout the day, a towel, and a locker. Work out the maths: standard entry ($52) plus a locker ($8) plus a towel ($5) plus lunch for two people ($30) plus drinks ($10) comes to about $105 per couple. The all-inclusive at $194 per person is nearly double that — so the fast pass is really what you are paying for.
Is it worth it? Honestly, it depends on when you visit. In July and August, when the park is packed with families and the big slides have serious queues, the fast pass is a game-changer. You will ride Tower of Power four times in the time it takes a standard ticket holder to ride it once. In October or February, when the park is quieter and queues are under 10 minutes, you are paying a premium for something you don’t really need.
My advice: standard entry for visits between October and May. All-inclusive for June through September, and especially for any week that overlaps with school holidays.
When to Visit Siam Park
Siam Park is open year-round, and Tenerife’s climate means the weather is almost never a problem. The south coast sits in a rain shadow created by Mount Teide, so even when it is cloudy and wet in the north of the island, Costa Adeje is usually dry and warm. Average temperatures range from 20 degrees Celsius in January to 28 in August.
That said, “when” matters a lot for crowd levels.
Peak season (July-August, Christmas, Easter): The park gets seriously busy. Families from mainland Spain, the UK, Germany, and Scandinavia all converge at the same time. Queues for Tower of Power and Singha can hit 40-60 minutes between 11am and 3pm. If you are visiting during these periods, either arrive at opening (10am) to blitz the big rides before the queues build, or buy the all-inclusive ticket for priority access.
Shoulder season (April-June, September-October): The sweet spot. Weather is warm, the park is open full hours, and crowds are manageable. You will wait 10-20 minutes for the popular rides, sometimes less. This is when the standard entry ticket makes the most sense — you get a full day of riding without the premium price tag.
Low season (November-March): Quieter, but the park still operates. Opening hours may be shorter (check the Siam Park website before you go), and the water can feel cool first thing in the morning — though it is heated. The upside: virtually no queues. You can ride everything multiple times without waiting. The downside: some restaurants and food stands may be closed, and the atmosphere is less lively.
Best day of the week: Avoid weekends if you can. Midweek visits, especially Tuesdays and Wednesdays, tend to be the quietest. Monday can be surprisingly busy because travelers often plan big activities at the start of their holiday week.
Tips for Your Siam Park Visit
Arrive at opening. The park opens at 10am. Be at the gates by 9:45. The first 60-90 minutes are golden — the big rides have almost no queues, and you can knock out Tower of Power, Singha, Kinnaree, and Dragon before the late risers show up at 11:30. After that, switch to the wave pool, lazy river, and beach areas while the ride queues peak, then go back for a second round of slides in the last couple of hours before closing.
Lockers and valuables. Rent a locker. You will need somewhere to keep your phone, wallet, and keys while you are on the rides. Lockers cost around 5-8 euros depending on size and are located near the main entrance. The cheaper option: bring a waterproof phone pouch (2-3 euros from any Tenerife tourist shop) and keep everything else in your hotel safe.
Sunscreen is your best friend. Same deal as any outdoor day in Tenerife — you are at 28 degrees north latitude with intense UV, and the water reflection amplifies it. Factor 50, reapplied every two hours, especially after rides. A lot of people underestimate this because they feel cool from the water. Then they spend the rest of their holiday looking like a lobster.
Waterproof phone case. If you want photos and videos on the rides, get a proper waterproof phone case — not a zip-lock bag, an actual sealed case with a lanyard. You can buy them at the park entrance shops or, cheaper, at any of the tourist shops along the Playa de las Americas promenade. Some rides like Tower of Power won’t let you bring a phone even in a case, but for the tube slides, lazy river, and wave pool, it works well.
Food strategy. If you don’t have the all-inclusive ticket, eat before you go and bring sealed water bottles (the park allows water). The food inside is decent — standard theme park fare — but priced at 12-15 euros per meal. Alternatively, take a late lunch break and walk to one of the restaurants near the park entrance on Avenida Siam, where prices are closer to normal.
With kids. The Lost City area is designed for younger children and has its own set of slides, splash areas, and shallow pools. It is big enough that kids can spend hours there without getting bored. For the main rides, there are height restrictions: most of the big slides require a minimum height of 1.10m to 1.25m. Children under 3 get in free, and kids aged 3-11 get a reduced price. The family rides — Sarasvati, Naga Racer — are the ones where adults and kids can ride together without height restrictions being an issue.
What to skip. The Siam Park bus transfer from your hotel sounds convenient, but it adds time to your day — the bus loops around collecting people from multiple hotels, and you could easily lose 45 minutes each way. If you are staying in Costa Adeje, a taxi to the park is under 10 euros. From Playa de las Americas or Los Cristianos, maybe 12-15 euros. Much faster, and you leave on your own schedule.
