Is the buggy tour guided, or can I drive wherever I want?
It is a guided safari. You drive your own buggy in a group and follow a lead guide who knows the safest and most scenic route through the south of Gran Canaria. This keeps everyone safe and means you still see the best spots without getting lost. It is an adventure at a steady, fun pace, not a free-for-all race.

What should I wear and bring?
Wear comfortable clothes you do not mind getting dusty and closed-toe shoes, as flip-flops are not allowed. Bring your original driving licence, sunglasses, and sun cream. Goggles for the dust are provided, and many guests like to bring a buff or bandana for their face.

💬 Club Canary's Honest Take
Real talk: a buggy safari is not a free-roam rental, it is a guided group ride, and knowing that up front is what makes people love it. You follow a local guide to spots a normal car cannot reach, you get dusty, and you have a proper laugh. Bring the original licence, wear closed shoes, and you are set.
We are Canary Islands locals, and we love these islands. Buggy tours are brilliant fun when they are run properly, with the right licences and respect for the land, so we work with a partner who does exactly that. Book with a local team that cares, not a global platform that does not, and everyone wins, you and the island.
For a buggy safari in Gran Canaria, this is the ride Club Canary recommends.
