Gran Canaria Buggy Tour

Enjoy an unforgettable experience on our buggy tour of Gran Canaria. Travel along some of the most beautiful ravines and admire the gorgeous landscape.

Have fun driving the buggies during a safari that includes asphalt roads and off-road adventure.

Driving these vehicles is easy and safe, but for your peace of mind, we do not do the tour with more than 8 buggies.

Come alone or with your partner, family or friends. Book online and take advantage of a 10% discount over the official price.

We will pick you up for free at your hotel in San Agustín, Maspalomas, Playa del Inglés and Meloneras. If you’re in Puerto Rico, Amadores or Mogán, we will pick you up but will not be able to bring you back to your hotel. And if you would like to come directly from Las Palmas or any other area of Gran Canaria, we are in El Tablero..

We only ask that you come with a desire to enjoy this adventure. If you are accompanied by a friend and you both wish to drive, you will be able to take turns throughout the journey as long as you both bring a valid driving licence.

We hope that the tour becomes an unforgettable experience and one of the best moments of your stay on the island.

What’s the route?
The usual route departs towards the Monte Leon area and then goes to the Barranco and Presa de Ayaguares, two of the most beautiful and charming sites on the island. A section of the route is off-road so you can enjoy driving the buggy on this type of dirty and stony surface.

Does the dune buggy tour pass through the Dunes of Maspalomas?
No, the Dunes of Maspalomas is a protected natural area and, therefore, driving buggies there is forbidden.

What’s the best buggy tour option if I stay in Anfi, Arguineguin, Puerto Rico, Amadores, Playa del Cura or Puerto de Mogan?
If you stay in these areas, the best option is to book this other buggy excursion since it includes both the pick-up and drop-off at your accommodation, and the tour is 100% off-road.

Will I be picked up in Playa del Ingles or Maspalomas? What are the collection points? What time will I be picked up?
f you want to be picked up in the Bahía Feliz, San Agustín, Playa del Inglés or Maspalomas areas, you only need to state the name of your accommodation when booking. Once we know where you’re staying and the day you want to do the excursion, we’ll inform you of the pick-up time at your accommodation.

What’s the best time to do the tour? What does the departure time depend on? Can I choose the departure time?
Throughout the year, we usually depart at 9:00 while at certain times of the year that involve greater demand, we make an additional departure at 13:00. In summer there’s also a third departure in the afternoon.

Therefore, we’ll usually offer you the first departure time, but if you tell us that you want to leave at another time in the comments field of the reservation, we’ll try to place you in that other time slot if that departure is being made and there are seats available.

What’s the maximum height to drive the buggy?
You can drive the buggy without problems if you’re up to 2 meters tall. If you’re taller, check with us.

Can I bring the driver's license certificate issued by the official traffic application of my country?
Yes.

Does the duration of the tour also include stops and pick-up?
The tour lasts 2 hours, from the moment the buggy safari leaves the facilities until it returns, which includes driving time and stops.

Are there extra departures in summer?
In summer there’s usually a third departure at 17:00.

Can I drive the buggy if my license is less than 2 years old?
No, both to rent a vehicle and to drive a buggy, insurance only covers drivers who have a minimum of 2 years of experience.

If you don’t have a driver´s license or don’t have enough experience, you can take a jet ski excursion, which you’ll enjoy, at least, as much as the buggy excursions.

If we both have a driver's license, can we both drive during the tour?
Yes, you can switch at the stops.
