\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDreaming of a buggy trip in Tenerife, around Puerto de la Cruz, to discover contrasting landscapes between sea and mountains <\/strong> on an island packed with hidden treasures<\/a>, along rural tracks far from the beaches and the crowds<\/strong>? Here, no racing, no rally driving<\/strong>: it\u2019s a guided ride in convoy, at a pace that suits everyone. You get to see the area differently, taking in a traditional banana plantation, tracks through the pine forest and a viewpoint over the Orotava Valley. It\u2019s an adventure open to everyone from age 7 in the back<\/strong> (you must be 18 with a valid driving licence to take the wheel), designed to explore the hinterland of northern Tenerife and its varied landscapes, with no off-road driving experience needed.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

My aim is to be 100% transparent with you: not to push an activity on you at any cost, but to make sure you have a great time and don\u2019t come away disappointed. It takes two minutes to read and saves you any nasty surprises. Here\u2019s everything you need to know before you book:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \ud83d\ude99 A guided ride, not a rally:<\/b> the pace is adapted to the group, with no chasing speed thrills. Travellers who\u2019ve done this trip mostly mention the friendly atmosphere in the convoy, not a race.<\/li>\n
  • \ud83c\udf0b You don\u2019t go up to Mount Teide:<\/b> this trip stays in the hills above Puerto de la Cruz, up to around 800 m (pine forest and a viewpoint over the Orotava Valley). Teide National Park is a protected area where off-road driving is tightly controlled: buggies that get close to it almost always stay on tarmac roads. If you\u2019re looking for a trip that climbs up to Teide (over 2,000 m), this isn\u2019t the one.<\/li>\n
  • \ud83d\udeab No hotel pick-up:<\/b> unlike some other trips, you need to make your own way to the meeting point in Puerto de la Cruz (opposite the Al\u00faa Tenerife hotel). Remember to plan your journey there and back.<\/li>\n
  • \ud83d\udd1e Driving is for adults only:<\/b> you must be 18 with a valid driving licence (category B) to take the wheel. Children can, however, come along as passengers from age 7, accompanied by an adult.<\/li>\n
  • \ud83d\udde3\ufe0f English- and Spanish-speaking guides:<\/b> the guides speak English and Spanish. If you need another language, it\u2019s best to check directly with the operator before booking.<\/li>\n
  • \u267f Accessibility to be checked case by case:<\/b> the meeting point is listed as accessible, but the nature of the activity (bumps, off-road) may not suit everyone with reduced mobility. It\u2019s best to check directly with the operator before booking.<\/li>\n
  • \ud83c\udf2b\ufe0f Dust, and some gear to bring:<\/b> part of the route is off tarmac, on tracks that can get dusty. Wear closed shoes and, if needed, bring a bandana for your face.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    The Canary Island pine you\u2019ll drive through by buggy has a feature that\u2019s unique among conifers: its thick, cracked bark protects it from the heat of wildfires, and it can sprout new shoots straight from the trunk shortly after a fire has passed. It\u2019s an adaptation that lets it survive the fires that regularly hit the archipelago\u2019s forests!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
