Buggy tours use two-seat side-by-side vehicles — think small off-road cars with roll cages — on guided convoys from the southern resorts into the hills or up to Teide National Park. Prices are per buggy, so two people split one price. A full car licence is required to drive, and kids from around 6–8 can ride as passengers depending on the operator. Compared with quads you get a steering wheel, seat belts and far better suspension — noticeably more comfortable over 3–4 hours. We match you with a licensed operator; you pay them directly on the day.

Who it's for (and who it isn't)

Couples (one price, two seats, swap drivers halfway) and anyone who finds quad seating uncomfortable. The Teide tour is the flagship. Drivers need a full car licence; if that is a problem, ask us — some operators offer guided buggies where the guide drives.

Honest tips before you book

  • Per-buggy pricing means couples pay half each — compare with two single quads before deciding.
  • The 3–4 hour Teide route justifies the extra €50: the coastal loop alone feels short.
  • Expect dust — sunglasses and a buff are essential kit.
  • Bring your physical driving licence, not just a photo of it.

Frequently asked questions

€100–130 per buggy for 2 hours and €150–180 for the 3–4-hour Teide route. Buggies seat two, so couples split one price.

Do I need a licence to drive a buggy?

Yes — a full car driving licence is required. Passengers need nothing, and most tours let couples swap drivers halfway.

Buggy or quad — which is better?
