About this tour
Tear across Tenerife's terrain in your own buggy on this 2-hour drive, including 40 minutes of genuine off-road work through sand and dirt. You'll pilot the vehicle yourself with a guide alongside, exploring trails that give you real control and genuine thrills. Based in the south near Los Cristianos and Callao Salvaje, this is steering-wheel adventure rather than passive sightseeing.

What to expect
You'll arrive at the starting point and receive a brief on handling the buggy before setting off. The first stretch covers easier ground to get you comfortable with the controls, then you'll head into proper off-road sections where you'll navigate sand, dirt tracks and uneven surfaces. The guide leads the way and can offer pointers on technique. Expect a mix of concentration and genuine adrenaline as you steer through natural obstacles. It's physically engaging—you're actively driving, not being driven—so stamina matters.
