The Villages

White walls, black stone.

Quiet country roads through the Timanfaya area pass small Canary villages and their white churches. Slow down, wave at the locals, take the photo.

La Geria

Wine country in the lava.

You drive past the bodegas of La Geria, the island wine region. It is a protected park, so you enjoy it from the road, not off it.

The Vines

Vines growing in black ash.

Thousands of half-moon stone walls each protect a single vine in volcanic soil. One of the strangest wine regions on earth, seen from an open buggy.

The Spring Bonus

Purple fields, spring only.

For a few weeks in spring, after rain, wildflowers cover the roadsides in purple. Beautiful, but seasonal. The rest of the year you get the black and gold version of the same road.

Lanzarote Sightseeing Buggy Tour, See Timanfaya And The Volcanoes

Drive yourself through the most beautiful part of Lanzarote. This is the scenic, on-road buggy tour that takes you around the Timanfaya volcano area, the Natural Park of the Volcanoes and the famous La Geria vineyards, with a stop on the dramatic volcanic coast. Smooth paved roads, panoramic views and no dust, in a comfortable buggy that seats up to 4. Perfect if you want to see the real Lanzarote at your own pace, whether you are a couple, a family or a group.

This is the sightseeing tour, all about the views and the volcanoes. Want dust, dirt tracks and speed instead? That is our off-road Buggy Safari, we split them into two so it is clear which is which.

Why Book Your Lanzarote Buggy Tour With Club Canary

Most sites bury this trip in a wall of confusing product names. We keep it simple. This is the scenic tour that actually goes to Timanfaya and La Geria. Pick it, see exactly what you get, and book in a minute.

Book online with a small deposit and pay the balance to the guide on the day. Best Price Guarantee, so you never pay more, and a real local team on WhatsApp if you have any questions.

From 160€ per buggy. Seats up to 4. Optional hotel pickup and drop-off from 5€ per person.

💡 We split our Lanzarote buggy tours into two clear pages. This page is the scenic sightseeing tour, on smooth roads through the Timanfaya area, the volcanoes and La Geria. If you want off-road, dirt tracks and more speed, that is a different trip, see our Lanzarote Buggy Safari. Some of our reviews are from guests across both tours, since they are run by the same trusted local team.

See The Real Lanzarote, At Your Own Pace

This is the tour for people who want to see Lanzarote, not just drive fast. You take the wheel of a comfortable buggy and follow a local guide on a scenic route through the island's volcanic heart. It is all on smooth, paved roads, so there is no dust and no rough terrain, just open-top driving with panoramic views the whole way. It suits couples, families with kids from age 7, and groups of friends who want to explore together.

The buggy seats up to 4 people and the price is per buggy, so a couple can take one and enjoy the space, or a family or group of four can share and split the cost. Automatic and easy to drive, with a full safety briefing before you set off. No experience needed.

The Journey

Where The Sightseeing Tour Goes

You drive through the areas that make Lanzarote famous, with the guide sharing the story of the island along the way. The exact order and stops can shift a little with the weather or road conditions, but this is what a typical tour looks like.

Start & Briefing

Check-in near Yaiza, a safety briefing and how to drive the buggy. Depart 09:30 or 13:15.

Timanfaya Volcano Area

Drive the scenic roads through the volcanic landscape and the Natural Park of the Volcanoes, with panoramic views of the craters.

La Geria Vineyards

The famous vines growing in black volcanic ash inside curved stone walls, one of the most photographed sights on the island.

Volcanic Coast

Down to the dramatic coast for a photo stop at Los Hervideros or El Golfo, where the Atlantic meets the lava (one of the two, depending on the day).

Villages & Views

Traditional white villages and open volcanic countryside, with the guide stopping at the finest viewpoints.

Back To Base

Return to the meeting point, relaxed and full of photos, after about 2.5 hours.

Honest note on the route: because Timanfaya and La Geria are protected parks, you cannot drive off-road there, and no company can. This tour stays on the scenic roads with panoramic views of the volcanoes, which is exactly what makes it beautiful. Routes can also shift for local events like the Ironman or the Roméria de Los Dolores, and the team runs a similar scenic route when that happens.
The Lanzarote sightseeing buggy tour is a guided, on-road drive through the Timanfaya volcano area, the Natural Park of the Volcanoes and the La Geria vineyards, with a photo stop on the volcanic coast at Los Hervideros or El Golfo. It runs on smooth paved roads with panoramic views and no off-road, lasts about 2.5 hours, and uses a comfortable buggy that seats up to 4 people from 160€ per buggy. Drivers must be 21 or over with a licence held 2 or more years, and passengers can join from age 7. Departures run at 09:30 or 13:15 from near Yaiza, with free parking and optional hotel pickup.

Your Buggy, Comfortable And Easy To Drive

You drive a comfortable automatic buggy that seats up to 4 people, with room for up to 2 drivers who can swap during the tour. It is easy to handle, with no clutch or gears, and you get a full briefing and practice before you head out, so it suits complete beginners. This is the relaxed, sightseeing side of Lanzarote, so the focus is comfort and the views, not speed.

🏎 Looking For Off-Road And Action Instead?

This is the scenic, on-road tour. If what you want is dirt tracks, dust and more speed, that is our separate off-road trip, the Lanzarote Buggy Safari, with the 2-seat Maverick Trail and the powerful X3 Turbo. Two very different days out, both brilliant. Can't decide? Do both, one to see the island and one for the adventure.

See The Lanzarote Buggy Safari

Great For Couples, Families And Groups

Because the buggy seats up to 4 and the price is per buggy, this tour works for everyone. A couple gets a comfortable buggy to themselves with plenty of space. Families love it, kids from age 7 get the fun of a buggy plus the volcanoes, and parents drive while everyone rides together. And a group of friends can share one buggy and split the cost. Planning something bigger, like a birthday, a stag or hen group or a company outing? We can arrange several buggies together. Message us with your group size, or email events@clubcanary.com for group and company bookings.

Lanzarote Sightseeing Buggy Tour, Frequently Asked Questions

The questions people ask us most about the scenic sightseeing buggy tour. Still unsure? Message our local team on WhatsApp, we help fast.

How many people fit in the buggy?

This is the 4-seat buggy, so up to 4 people ride together in one vehicle, ideal for a family, two couples or four friends. It has room for up to 2 drivers, and the price is per buggy, so you share the cost with your group. Just the two of you, or want more off-road and speed? See our 2-seat Lanzarote Buggy Safari instead.

What is the difference between the On-Road tour and the MIX tour?

The On-Road tour (2.5 hours, 160€ per buggy) is a smooth scenic drive on paved roads through the Timanfaya volcanic area, the villages and the La Geria vineyards, with photo stops on the coast. No dust. The MIX tour (3 hours, 250€ per buggy) uses the same 4-seat buggy but adds off-road dirt tracks and a 25-minute stop at Gran Karting, so it is more adventurous and you will get dusty. Both are guided and both seat 4.

Where does the buggy tour go?

You drive through Lanzarote's volcanic landscape, past traditional villages and the Timanfaya area, with a stop at the famous La Geria vineyards where vines grow in black volcanic ash. The On-Road tour also visits the coast at Los Hervideros and El Golfo, where the Atlantic crashes through lava caves. The MIX tour adds off-road tracks around Puerto Calero, Tías and Masdache with a break at Gran Karting. Routes can shift a little with weather or local events, but the guide always keeps it scenic.

Will I get dusty?

No. This is an on-road scenic tour on smooth paved roads, so there is no dust and you do not need a bandana or goggles for dust. Just come ready to enjoy the views. If you actually want the dusty off-road experience, that is our Lanzarote Buggy Safari, a different trip with 2-seat buggies built for dirt tracks.

What are the driver and age requirements?

Each driver needs an original driving licence, either a physical card, or a digital licence such as Gov.uk or DGT plus your physical passport or ID. Drivers must be 21 or over with a licence held for at least 2 years, and up to 2 people can drive one buggy. Passengers, including children, can join from age 7. No alcohol or drugs before driving.

Where does the tour start, and is hotel pickup available?

The meeting point is near the camel and horse-riding centre by Yaiza, with free parking, and you should arrive at least 10 minutes before departure. Optional round-trip hotel pickup and drop-off is 5€ per person, paid on arrival, from Playa Blanca, Puerto del Carmen, Costa Teguise and Puerto Calero. When you book, enter your hotel name, not an address, or the nearest hotel if you are in an Airbnb.

What is included, and are the photos free?

Included: your guided 4-seat buggy, a local guide, the safety briefing, safety goggles, a child booster seat when needed, fuel, and full insurance with no security deposit. The guide also takes photos on your own phone, so your photos are free. Not included: food and drinks at the Gran Karting stop on the MIX tour, and a bandana or buff, which you can buy on site.

What should I bring and wear?

Bring your original driving licence for each driver and your Club Canary ticket. Wear comfortable clothes and closed shoes, as flip-flops are not allowed for drivers. On the MIX tour bring sunglasses and a bandana for the dust, and a jacket and sun cream are a good idea year-round. Do not wear good clothes on the MIX tour, you will get dusty.

Can we book buggies for a bigger group?

Yes. The price is per buggy, so a bigger group simply books several buggies together, for example two buggies for a group of up to 8. It works well for a birthday, a stag or hen group or a company outing. Message the Club Canary team with your group size and preferred date and we will arrange it, and group availability shows in the booking calendar.

What is the cancellation policy?

Cancel for free up to 48 hours before (or 4 days before for 4 or more buggies). After that: cancel 24 to 48 hours before and you lose the deposit only; cancel 12 to 24 hours before and you lose the deposit plus 60€ per buggy; cancel under 12 hours before, no-show or arrive too late and you lose the deposit and still pay 90% of the balance, because the buggy and guide are reserved for you. The only exception is a same-day doctor letter, which only covers the person who is ill, not the whole group.

Can Club Canary arrange a private or company group buggy tour?

Yes. Club Canary can arrange private buggy excursions for larger groups, team-building or company outings. Message the local team with your group size and preferred date and we will set it up.

Does the sightseeing buggy tour go off-road?

No. This is a fully on-road scenic tour on smooth paved roads, so there is no off-road and no rough terrain. You drive through the Timanfaya volcano area, the Natural Park of the Volcanoes and the La Geria vineyards, with panoramic views the whole way. It lasts about 2.5 hours in a comfortable buggy that seats up to 4, from 160€. If you want dirt tracks, dust and more speed, that is our separate Lanzarote Buggy Safari with 2-seat off-road buggies.

Booking And Cancellation Policy
In short: Cancel more than 48 hours before and it is completely free. The closer you cancel to the start, the more you pay, because the buggy and guide are reserved and paid for your group either way. Cancel last minute or do not show up, and you pay almost the full price.

Deposit & Payment

  • You reserve with a small deposit online and pay the balance on the day at the base, cash or card. The deposit is part of the total price.
  • All buggies are fully insured, with no security deposit required.

Your Free Cancellation Window

  • 1 to 3 buggies: cancel or reschedule for free up to 48 hours before the tour.
  • 4 or more buggies: free up to 96 hours (4 days) before, because a bigger group is harder to refill.
  • Cancellations go by email to office@clubcanary.com.

After Your Free Window Closes

  • Between 24 and 48 hours before: you lose the full deposit. You pay nothing more.
  • Between 12 and 24 hours before: you lose the full deposit, plus a fee of 60€ per booked buggy. We send a payment link.
  • Less than 12 hours before, a no-show, or arriving too late: you lose the full deposit and still pay 90% of the arrival balance. Only the 10% for fuel you will not use is waived. We send a payment link.
  • The buggy and guide are reserved and paid for your group either way, so the deposit alone can never cover a late cancellation.

No Excuses, With One Exception

  • Traffic, an accident on the way, a missed pickup or simply running late are your own responsibility. No refund is given for these.
  • The only exception is a genuine doctor or hospital letter, dated the same day, stating that the person cannot take part in the activity.
  • Important: a doctor letter only covers that one person, not the whole group. For example, if four of you booked two buggies and one person is genuinely ill, at most one buggy may be adjusted, and even that depends on the situation. One sick person does not cancel the whole group's booking.

Driving Requirements

  • Each driver needs an original driving licence (a physical card, or a digital licence plus physical passport or ID). Drivers must be 21+ with a licence held at least 2 years.
  • No alcohol or drugs before driving. Anyone unfit to drive safely may be refused, with no refund.

Weather & Safety

  • If the tour is cancelled by the operator for unsafe weather, you are offered a new date or a full refund. You never lose money when the operator cancels.
By booking a buggy tour with Club Canary, you agree to these conditions. Please check you meet the driving requirements before booking. These rules keep every tour safe, fair and running smoothly. If something genuinely goes wrong, talk to us and we will always try to find a fair solution.

🎁 A free Club Canary collectible card. Every booking here comes with a free collectible souvenir card from The Club Canary Collection, the first collectible card set of the Canary Islands. You get a digital version by email, and you can collect the printed card in person at our Costa Adeje office.

Club Canary's Honest Take

Real talk from your local team in the Canary Islands

If you want to actually see Lanzarote, the volcanoes, La Geria, the coast, this is the one. You drive it yourself, at your own pace, on smooth roads with a guide showing you the finest spots. No dust, no rough terrain, just open-top driving and panoramic views. Couples love the freedom, families love that kids can come from 7, and it beats sitting on a coach every time.

Be clear on what this is before you book, and this is where we are more honest than most: it is a scenic, on-road tour. You pass close to Timanfaya and La Geria with beautiful views, but you do not drive off-road there, because it is protected national park and nobody is allowed to. If you specifically want dirt tracks, dust and speed, that is our off-road Buggy Safari. Two different days out, both worth doing.

See the volcanoes, drive it yourself, one easy booking. Message us if you are not sure which tour fits you.
