Mad Max-style Adventure - The buggy ride in the Huacachina Oasis was one of the most incredible tourist experiences I’ve ever had, and I’ve traveled quite a bit. The adventure begins in a breathtaking setting, with stunning views of the massive dunes. The place is packed with buggies — or, as I like to call them, true Mad Max-style sand conquerors. Each buggy holds about eight people, and while it’s an adventurous ride, it’s surprisingly comfortable for what it is. But don’t forget: this is an adrenaline-packed activity! It feels like a rollercoaster in the middle of the desert, with the roar of the engine as you go up and down massive dunes that make your stomach churn with excitement. It’s worth every penny, and the price is surprisingly affordable for everything you get. And the best part? We made several stops to slide down the dunes on sandboards and watched a stunning sunset disappearing behind the golden, fine sands. Our driver was fantastic and very attentive. I highly recommend this experience, and I would gladly do it again!

Don’t miss this tour - Sam was a really nice guy. We booked 5pm tour, when we got Hotel Bamboo around 4:45pm, he was already waiting for us there, and then arranged us to storage bags, using washroom, leading us to the dune. Dune buggy is really a fun and must-have experience in Peru, don’t miss it, it’s absolutely worth you to take time and money to visit Huacachina Oasis. BTW, sitting on the moon evening dune and enjoying the outside music concert, is a really romantic experience.

Thriller Dune Buggy Ride - June 2024 - My husband and I had an amazing time on this dune buggy ride through the Huacachina oasis. Our driver drifted off of sand dunes and made our buggy ride a real thriller!! We also stopped a few times and went down on the sandboards on our bellies. Going later in the day was great as we got to watch a beautiful sunset as well. Worth the money, so much fun!!

Incredible Dune Buggy Experience - This was WAY more fun than we expected!! Samael was super helpful and organized, we used him for our wine tour as well. The buggies are fast and had all of us screaming the whole time! The sunset was incredible as well, highly recommended!

Highly recommended - The excursion is amazing. They took us in a buggy through the dunes, we did sandboarding and then they took us to see a spectacular sunset. Both Sam and our driver were super friendly and made us feel super comfortable. It's very worth it, we had a great time.

Very fun but short - Was very fun and the guide was nice. We had booked the tour of one hour, you then walked 5min to a car and after another 40min was dropped off again to walk back through the oasis. So a little shorter than expected and therefore not quite cheap. But you must have made it very funny. The oasis is very nice.
