Affordable, and a lot of fun!!
We are so glad we booked onto this buggy tour which is something we wanted to do since booking our holiday to Gran Canaria. The trip was an amazing experience from start to finish. The guides were full of energy and you could tell they love what they do! On the off road part, our buggy engine did cut out a few times but the guides assisted us quickly and made sure everything was okay. Many thanks to everyone involved who made us feel safe and comfortable throughout.
We had a very good experience,the tour was great. Absolutly worth the money. I will do it again!
Great experience, don't wear white trainers !!!good laugh by the the staff, fab day out..
This was a fantastic way to get up to the higher part of the island and see lots, and was great fun to drive and not worry about potholes! There is about 10 mins of driving on the roads, but you are in a convoy, so there is no real issue there if you are not confident of driving abroad. The team were great fun and kept the energy high. We've received our (bought) video which does include everyone on the same trip, so very little of it is us, but hey, we're not likely to be doing this again, so a great way to remember it. There are spare buggies following, so on our trip, one broke down, so they swapped them into the spare, so no time was lost on the event. Opportunities were given for swapping drivers a few times, so we both got roughly equal time. The only negative we had in the whole event was the Viator app - it gave a grid reference and map showing exactly where we had to stand to be collected. We were there early but no-one showed up. Messaged the company via the app, no reply, so phoned the number stated, ended up speaking with Viator. They got hold of Buggy Pirates who contacted me to find out where we were - well, right where we were told to stand as per the app! They sent Lucian out to collect us, so we missed the group safety briefing, therefore received individual briefing quickly before setting out. It is great to be picked up and delivered back, but if you book this, do ask for a what3words reference or exact road/hotel spot. You need to be prepared to get dusty and dirty, possibly muddy if it's been raining (very rare!) But do not wear white, and cover as much of the skin as possible - sunburn and windburn, plus possibly stones and gravel kicked up. The dust gets everywhere, so wear a snood and if you can, something over your hair - felt so dry afterwards.
Absolutely brilliant tour. By far the best off road buggy experience ive had. Sebastian our guide was great and encouraged us to have a laugh. Plenty of off road where you can really test the buggies.
Couldn’t fault any of it. It was jam packed with fun from start to finish.
Great atmosphere, enthusiast team, the thrill and enjoyment off driving around wind through you hair and the off road sections, just what I wanted. Great way to spend several hours.
That was great fun. I never done any research prior to this. I was guessing along the dunes. It was up the rocky mountain. These things are fast too. Brilliant experience. Remember your driving licence though. My partner never had hers but this was our fault. I not let that affect the company’s review but I’m not sure if it was on the booking when I went through tripadvisor. She could have swapped over for a bit when we were on the mountain though if she wanted.
Amazing adventure! Organisation is professional with a lot of room for fun. Amazing views in the mountains and fun deep off road. Must do!
