Very cool Tour with great views and insights

We were picked up by Phil directly from the cruise terminal. We agreed everything in advance. The tour is highly recommended. Riding the buggies is a great adventure. Regardless of the ride, the tour was very nice. First along the coastal road and then into the mountains. From there we had a fabulous view over the great landscape. In between, there were 2 stops in typical restaurants to treat yourself to a refreshment. Phil and the 2nd guide were very friendly. If you want to have a small, private tour with a lot of insight into the typical Gran Canaria, this is highly recommended!!!!

A Blast

In one way, it was a hard experience. The heavens opened with rain, there were no windscreen wipers, the roads were scary, height and hairpin bends to the fore...but, I loved driving this 70s car, it galloped around, stopped when asked, a FUN adventure (not sure our passenger in the back would agree as they got the rain and the mud from the road... take macs!)

Operator response

Thank you, Simon It was a real adventure because we are not used to see so bad weather… Thanks a lot for your nice comments and hope to see you again one day with nice weather and sorry for your passenger! Phil

Amazing amazing amazing. You will not regret it

I cannot rate Philippe and his tour any higher it is amazing. Collected from our hotel right on time and taken on a beautiful tour that took in everything from the sea to the high into the mountains. The tour just kept going and far exceeded the time we thought we would be out for. The buggies are well maintained and easy to drive, the roads are safe and with Phillippe to follow it’s a breeze. A real experience of the genuine Canary Islands. Thank you so much to Phillipee and Silvia.

Thanks a lot Anthony for you and all your family! Hugs to everybody! Phil

If there’s one thing you do in GC make sure it’s the 70’s buggy tour

Our family had some such a great day with Philippe. It was a great experience behind the wheel of the 70’s buggy hearing the engine behind you, our kids (6 & 9) loved it so much. The day was very relaxed and Phil is a very friendly guy who is hugely knowledgeable about cars. The scenery was amazing and you get to stop in authentic Canarian locations that you might otherwise drive past. It was nice to sit with Philippe and his partner Silivia to chat and have a laugh. I would highly recommend this unique tour. Thanks again for a great day!!

Operator response

Thank you I'm so happy about your coments, see you soon and hugs to all your nice family. Phil

The activity is very good...

The activity is very good and the course breathtaking. The vehicles are nice it's a return to the not so distant past. However, watch out for the central reservation. They absolutely wanted to speak in French and were wrong about the time of booking, and the number of vehicles booked. Which means that on arrival we had to pay extra for the second car

Operator response

Pardon pour la jeunesse de notre centrale de réservation.... J'espère que vous avez eu une bonne expérience avec moi!

Pretty rough Adventure

This was not the best experience. Firstly it's not mentioned on the site but all cars are manual no automatic so we found out when we got there only manual so all 3 of us had to sit in one buggy because only one person in our group could drive stick. Second the driver agreed to pick us up at the port but while on the boat 13 hours before we were set to go he tells. Us he will not be able to pick us up from the port because he had to wait for another group so instead offering another way he offered to cancel our event and refund our money. And then only after he canceled the group because their bus that he sent got lost he offered to take us back but then when the group finally made it he said he cant take us back because he needed to assist the other group. Basically we felt that because there would be more money with the other group he didn't want to lose out and not take them so he just left us high and dry. So we actually had to pay a taxi to get us there 200 euro. Lastly he showed up the pick us up at the light house a half an hour late and on the site it says it's a 2 hour tour when we got there he told us 3 hours. He also mentioned not all of the buggy worked so even if all of us did drive stick there likely would not be enough cars I would not recommend this activity to anyone. The ride was nice if you're willing to deal with all of this.
