Exciting and unique driving tour - From beginning to end, Felipe was an excellent tour guide. He provides the best equipment (brand new Yamaha side by side) with helmets, gloves and even provided and extra waterproof jacket for my son. He led our small group from ocean through the mountains with stops for pictures and information about what we were seeing. The driving itself was highly adventurous but we always felt safe. Highly recommend!

Amazing Adventure!! - Fabulous day and amazing experience! We did the half day buggy tour and are so glad we chose to do this! The experience was totally unique in that you are going through the mountain trails in the side by side/buggy and can just appreciate being there. The weather was a little unpredictable, but our tour guide Filipe, was able to get us geared up and made sure we were as comfortable as possible. If you are up for adventure, don’t miss this tour!!! Filipe was a wonderful guide and we are so happy to have done this tour with him!

Best way to to see the views - Filipe was an incredible tour guide and took care of us throughout the experience as we had a lot of rain. Despite this, we enjoyed every minute of this unprecedented way to see some of the most breathtaking views otherwise inaccessible without an exhaustive hike! It’s the most fun you can have outside with your clothes on! Can’t wait to do it again in the summer.

A fantastic adventure! - We did this as the last activity before we left this beautiful island, and it was sooo much fun! We thought we had explored everywhere in our hire car until our knowledgeable guide Filipe showed us some amazing views and hidden gems. My 9 year old son was overthe moon about this experience. We definitely recommend!

Great tour for a family - We took part in the tour as a family. Our family had a vehicle for four persons.
The Tour alternated between driving on the road and off-road.
The route is also suitable for beginners.
There were a variety of viewpoints that you wouldn't be able to reach on foot in one day. The guide provided interesting information about each stop in excellent English. He always made sure that everyone was getting on with the vehicles.
The pace depends on the ability of each driver.
We really enjoyed the tour.
