Drive an open buggy through Fuerteventura dunes and volcano craters from Corralejo, with ocean views and a Don Pepe tapas stop.
“We had a fantastic time on the buggy tour. We had 2 buggies, our daughter has only been driving for a year and she found the buggy easy to drive as they are automatic and enjoyed driving throughout the tour. The majority of the tour is on the main rounds with around a 20-30 minute section off the road in the middle of the tour. We stopped at a little cafe so there was time for a quick drink and a comfort break, the ladies toilets were out of use, not sure if this is a usual thing but be prepared to use the gents as a unisex toilet instead.…”

“Awful. Waste of money. The sea was very choppy and the instructor just charged right off ahead until we almost couldn’t see him, he noticed we weren’t behind him eventually and came back, told us off for not keeping up then proceeded to do the same thing again. It was impossible to ride against the waves with how strong it was and it was very scary. After 10 mins we put our hand up and were taken back. We weren’t offered another chance to do it the day after when the sea was calmer which I think is very poor when you’ve paid €90 for an hour and only been…”
