Tenerife is an island with so much to explore and what better way to do it than by dune buggy? For those of you with a need for adventure this excursion is not to be missed. Take in the sights that the volcanic marvel of Tenerife has to offer, at your pace in your very own dune buggy!
Tenerife is a volcanic island and offers many geological wonders to be explored during your holiday. From the villages located on the slopes of the volcano itself down to the stunning coastal towns, everywhere you travel there is a wonder just waiting to be uncovered.
According to the original inhabitants of the island (guanches) the devil known locally as Guayota captured the sun god Magec and took him into the bowels of Teide. The locals prayed to their supreme god Achamán who agreed to rescue Magec from the clutches of Guayota. It is said that he succeeded and plugged up the home of Guayota with a giant white plug that is now the last cone of the volcano.
Whilst driving around the island it is impossible to escape the colossal stratovolcano that appears to follow your every move and perhaps it would be good to remember the legend and what is lurking below the cone of Mount Teide.
On your travels you may visit the highest village in Spain, Vilaflor, travel through forests or visit the dried lava flows on your way to the spectacular viewing point at Las Cañadas. In choosing the buggy tour you may witness the breathtaking views of Mount Teide from below and from the heights.
