Lanzarote Jeep Safaris

With the Lanzarote jeep safari, discover the island’s most emblematic sites and unknown treasures

Nature, adventure, fun and spectacular places are the elements that make these tours so popular for getting to know the island.

Tour the island in 7-seater convertible jeeps with a professional driver-guide who’ll provide information about the most interesting places on the route. In general, unless it rains or is very cold, we’ll do the tour with the open-top jeep. That way, you’ll be able to better enjoy the landscape and good weather, and you will have a more intense experience.

The tours include a pick-up service at your accommodation if you’re staying in the island’s tourist centers: Puerto del Carmen, Playa Blanca, Costa Teguise and Arrecife.

We propose two different routes:

1.- Jeep safari to Timanfaya, Laguna Verde, La Geria, Los Hervideros and Papagayos Beach

On this tour, you’ll get to know the great tourist attraction of Lanzarote, the Timanfaya National Park. Even though we’ll arrive at a place known as the Islote de Hilario by jeep, once we get there we’ll get off to enjoy some amazing volcanic landscape, observe various experiments related to the still-latent volcanic activity, and take the park bus along the Volcano Highway.

Before leaving the park, we’ll be able to ride a camel, one of the most demanded activities which cannot be missed on our 4×4 route. This activity is optional, and you can hire it once we arrive at the starting point of the camel ride.

Once outside the park, we’ll discover equally interesting places, also caused by Lanzarote’s volcanic activity.

The Green Lagoon, also known as Charco de los Clicos, is one of the island’s natural symbols. In this colorful place you’ll find a small green lake that contrasts with the black volcanic sand that surrounds it, as well as the blue sea that lies a few meters away.

La Geria is the wine area, where the famous Lanzarote wines are made. Here, we’ll see the curious way in which the territory, composed of small volcanic stones, is used to cultivate vines.

In Los Hervideros you’ll see how the seawater, upon travelling through some large cavities, shoots up to the surface with such force that it reaches several meters in height.

The final point of the tour will be a visit to the famous Papagayo Beaches, made up of a series of coves, where we’ll have some time to walk around and, why not, take a bath.

2.- 4×4 tour to Teguise, La Geria, Famara Beach and La Santa Sport

On this jeep tour we’ll combine some popular places with more unknown corners.

On the visit to the town of Teguise we’ll get to know a charming town, one of the most beautiful towns in the Canary Islands which was also the island’s capital until 1852.

In La Geria, the wine-growing area of the famous Lanzarote denomination of origin wines, you’ll be surprised by the unique way in which the vines are cultivated on the island, where the benefits of the small volcanic stones of this area are used for growing the vines.

At Famara Beach, you’ll discover an immense beach, the largest on the island with more than 6 km in length and up to 100 meters in width. Near the beach, we’ll pass through an impressive tourist and sports complex known as La Santa Club.

And if the jeep tour is synonymous with adventure, what better way to end the route than by entering a volcano crater? This will undoubtedly be the ideal point to end a jeep route through the land of volcanoes.
