Tenerife: Romantico Tour in Buggy Sunset

Imagine cruising along Tenerife’s southern coast in a bright, open-top buggy, watching the sky turn shades of orange and pink as the sun dips toward the horizon. That’s the essence of the Romantico Tour in Buggy Sunset — a blend of adventure, stunning scenery, and intimate moments designed for couples or small groups looking to add a dash of excitement to their holiday. While some travelers might find the tour’s length and pace a little laid-back for thrill-seekers, those craving breathtaking views and a memorable shared experience should find plenty to love here.

What makes this experience stand out? First, the unique buggy design — whether you opt for the compact 2-seater or the roomy 4-seater Family Cartoon — adds a playful, lively vibe to the trip. Second, the spectacular sunset picnic atop a panoramic vantage point creates a perfect setting to relax, photograph, and simply enjoy each other’s company. A small but notable consideration: the tour lasts around 2.5 hours, so it’s a short but sweet escape rather than a full-day adventure. This experience is best suited for couples, small groups, or anyone eager for a scenic, slightly playful outing with an emphasis on beautiful views and a touch of romance.

An Adventure with a Romantic Twist

We loved the way this tour combines adventure with intimacy. Driving a buggy along Tenerife’s southern coast adds a playful, freeing feeling that’s hard to match. You’re behind the wheel, exploring areas that many travelers miss, and the open-air design of the vehicles makes for an immersive experience. Whether you opt for the 2-seater or the 4-seater, the buggies are Italian-made, with powerful engines (1,100 HP for the Beach Buggy and 1,800 HP for the Family Cartoon). All drivers need a valid B license and be at least 18, but passengers can also drive if licensed — a nice touch for couples wanting to share the driving.

The tour’s core highlight is the sunset picnic, set at a panoramic spot with views of the coast below and the expansive Atlantic beyond. You’ll be seated on soft cushions on a grassy lawn, with a tablecloth and a playlist managed via Bluetooth speaker. As the sky transforms into a canvas of oranges, pinks, and purples, you’ll enjoy typical local products, making for a relaxed, memorable moment. According to reviews, many participants appreciated the “magical” setting and the chance to take stunning photographs.

The guide’s engaging presence adds to the experience. They’ll steer the vehicle along scenic coastal roads, stopping at carefully chosen viewpoints, including the highlight—a spot with a comprehensive view of the beach below.

As you cruise along the southern coast, you’ll pass by some of Tenerife’s most attractive coastal scenery, with stops at viewpoints that showcase the island’s natural beauty.

One of the tour’s real gems is reaching the panoramic spot where the picnic will be set.
