Yuzana_C, May 2026

A stunning tour, with excellent guides. A great way to see stunning views and learn about the island.

It was an excellent tour with friendly, knowledgeable and experienced tour guides. Very well put together and we enjoyed every minute of it. As it was a small group, it felt intimate and private and a lovely way to meet like-minded tourists. Also a flexible tour programme which adapted to the rain.

Great Trip, Even Better Guide!

We had an absolute pleasure spending the day with Celeste. The trip turned out a bit different from what I expected—I thought it would involve more hiking—but it ended up being one of the best experiences we’ve had ! We learned so much about the history of Gran Canaria, and Celeste’s passion and bubbly personality made the whole day even more enjoyable. We truly loved every minute 😀 Even though there were a few difficult moments with other participants on the tour, Celeste handled everything professionally and always with a smile, which really stood out. She also has a fantastic road trip playlist, which was a great bonus! We’ll definitely be booking with Climbo again

A great trip, Victor & Celeste entertained an informed us through the trip through the ravine and rainforest. The trek wasnt to onerous and was manageable for all, although you had to make sure of your footing in places. Would recommend for those who like to take a walk off the beaten track.

Pavel provides a well...

Pavel provides a well managed, informative and attentive tour. His spoken English is excellent and he goes the extra mile to make sure everyone is happy and all questions answered. Would highly recommend this tour earlier on in your visit to Gran Canaria as provides a useful overview of the island and, in our case, a helpful guide to the some of the best hiking areas.

Speedy Brings the Energy!

We had a really enjoyable time on the Buggy Tour in Gran Canaria. Pick-up from the hotel was right on time and we were taken straight to the starting point. The group was quite large on the day, so the ID and disclaimer process took a little longer than expected, and I noticed a few impatient faces, but once the engines started it was well worth the wait. The staff were fantastic – welcoming, professional, and full of energy. A special mention to “Speedy” who definitely lives up to his name. He zooms around on his moped keeping spirits high and really adds to the fun of the day. The tour itself is very accessible, something anyone can take part in. Most of the drive is along winding tarmac mountain roads with amazing views, before switching onto a short dirt and gravel stretch for a taste of off-road driving. Personally, I enjoyed the tarmac sections most, but it was nice to get a little mix of both. It’s not a free-for-all but a structured drive in a convoy of 10–15 buggies, which makes it safe and easy to enjoy. Altogether, it’s a few hours of beautiful scenery, fun driving, and plenty of laughs with the group. Simple, safe, and great fun a brilliant way to see a different side of Gran Canaria.
