Doing the longer route next time! What a great time! 7 of us (mostly girls) went for the 3 hour east tour on 2x double ATVs and 1x 6 person buggy , and that was a great 1st exposure. Booked online with super quick responses even late at night and on a holiday. Check in at their shop was quick and easy up in their thatched muster space. After a quick instruction and check out on whether you could handle the ATV/buggy alright, we took off on the municipal road. Most were first time ATV riders. Brakes on the buggy could have been better, but good enough for us. About 40% of the driving for this tour was on the road with other cars, and the remainder was off road. Went to see the aloe plantation (I would have skipped that), "indian" cave and lookout, lots of cacti, rough ocean side and sea cove, windmills and finally the sheltered swimming lagoon/beach. Our guide Lorenzo, who looks like Johnny Depp, made it the best. Friendly and easy going, trying to make sure we had a good time, and helped our daughters when they got stuck in the mud. I would definitely go with these guys again, but choose a different tour for something different. Prices were on par with the others, but these guys had both covered buggies and ATVs, and the others did not.
TIP: Bring/buy a bandana to cover your nose and mouth for the dusty off road parts. Wear shorts/swim suit. Bring sunscreen! If you want to stay out of the sun, choose a covered buggy.
