Lanzarote Tour with lunch
The independent crossing is short, but Lanzarote’s major sights are not beside the ferry terminal. A cheap ticket becomes a transport problem if your real goal is Timanfaya. The organised day costs much more because it solves transfers, admissions and sequencing.

Lanzarote/Fuerteventura ferry ticket
The bus-and-ferry return at €44 is the middle choice for travellers who need resort transport on Fuerteventura. Read the pickup area carefully. None of these options makes a 15-hour day easy for small children or anyone who struggles with long transfers.
