Quad tours in Tenerife run guided convoys from the southern resorts up through pine forests to the lava fields of Teide National Park, or along the south coast's off-road trails. Prices are per quad: a double quad costs the same as a single, so couples split the cost. You need a full car driving licence to drive; passengers from around 7 years up can ride pillion. Helmets, insurance and hotel pickup are included. Tell us your date and whether you want the Teide or coastal route — we match you with a licensed operator and you pay them directly.

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

Couples and groups of friends who want scenery with some adrenaline — the Teide route is genuinely beautiful, not just a dusty car park circuit. Drivers must hold a full car licence; kids ride as passengers. If nobody in your group has a licence, look at the buggy tours instead — some operators there have different requirements, or join as passengers.

Honest tips before you book

  • The Teide route is the one to book: coastal-only tours are shorter on scenery.
  • Wear clothes that can get dusty, and bring a bandana or buff for the trails.
  • One double quad for two people is the best-value configuration.
  • Sunset slots cost the same and the light over the lava fields is worth it.

Frequently asked questions

How much is a quad tour in Tenerife?

Expect €80–100 per quad for 2 hours and €110–140 for the 3-hour Teide route. A double quad carrying two people costs the same as a single — so couples effectively halve the price.

Do I need a driving licence?

Yes, a full car driving licence (category B) is required to drive a quad on these tours. Passengers do not need one.

Can children join?

Yes, as passengers — most operators take children from about 7 years old riding pillion behind an adult driver.

What routes are available?

The two main ones: the Teide route (forest tracks up to the national park, around 3 hours) and the south-coast off-road route (around 2 hours). The Teide route is the more scenic.

What if it rains?

Light rain usually means the tour still runs — quads are all-weather. If the operator cancels for conditions, you pay nothing and we help you rebook.
