It was a great experience. I am glad that I manged to overcome my fear and went a head and did it. There are two points to be ready for, 1st get ready to climb as you have to start the activity from the top of the hill. 2nd be prepared if you are someone who gets motion sickness! Other than that, Robert, your pilot is super friendly and knows how to calm you down

This excursion is an absolute must! My girlfriend and I did the slingshot 3 wheeler, Simon was our guide. This is by far the best way to see the island! An absolute blast, and the cars at 2.4 litres kick a real punch!

Fabulous experience, instructor was lovely and we got to see some amazing spots on the island. Would definitely recommend if you wanted to see most of Lanzarote in 3h!

Famara beach was nice place to surf also for a beginner and instructors were excellent. Eveything was well organized from the warm-up to the end.

The tour guide was amazing, couldn’t fault anything!!!!
