Three hours in an open-air Slingshot, switching drivers on mountain passes and volcanic terrain

You drive a Polaris Slingshot through Lanzarote's volcanic interior and mountain passes for three hours, switching drivers at service stops so everyone gets a turn. The guide leads the route through dirt tracks, paved climbs, and coastal views, covering terrain most island tours skip. You handle the vehicle yourself — the guide just shows you the way.

The Experience

The guide meets you at the pickup point and hands you the keys to a Polaris Slingshot X-Treme — and that's when you realize the seat belt is the only thing between you and the wind. The vehicle feels narrower than you expected, more exposed, but once you're moving through the central volcanic zone of Lanzarote, that exposure is exactly the point. The route winds through dirt tracks, paved mountain passes, and stretches of open field where the only sound is the engine and the air rushing past. You'll swap drivers at service stops along the way, which means everyone gets a turn behind the wheel instead of one person white-knuckling it for three hours straight.

The terrain shifts constantly — one moment you're climbing through volcanic rock with views down to the coast, the next you're dropping into a valley with the sea visible on both sides of the island. The guide leads the route, so you're not navigating; you're just following the line through terrain that feels more like a backcountry adventure than a standard island tour. Lanzarote's volcanic landscape and the way the roads cut through it make sense from ground level in a way they don't from a bus window. The beaches you pass aren't the crowded resort strips — they're the ones you reach by dirt road, with fine sand and water that's genuinely clear. The whole three-hour loop covers the interior, the volcanic zones, and enough coastal views that you get a real sense of how the island is shaped.

Service stops let you catch your breath, switch drivers, and let someone else take the Slingshot through the next section. If you've never driven one before, the guide's presence ahead of you sets the pace and shows you the line through each turn. The vehicle itself is the experience — it's built for exactly this kind of terrain, and the open design means you're not insulated from Lanzarote's landscape the way you would be in a closed car. By the end of the three hours, you've covered volcanic terrain, mountain passes, and coastal routes that most visitors only see from a distance.

Is this one for you?Right for drivers comfortable with open-air vehicles and terrain that feels more adventurous than a standard island loop. The three hours are spent mostly driving, not sightseeing from a stop — expect an active, hands-on experience rather than a guided commentary tour.
