A Dusty Adventure Begins

As a travel writer and a mother of three, I’m always on the lookout for family-friendly activities that promise both fun and a touch of education. When I heard about the Family Buggy Tour in the Mijas Countryside, I knew it was something my kids and I had to experience. The idea of exploring the rugged terrain of Mijas in a buggy sounded like the perfect blend of adventure and learning.

Our journey began at the base near La Cala hills, where we were greeted by our friendly guide. The kids were thrilled at the sight of the brand-new buggies, and I must admit, I was just as excited. After a quick safety briefing, we were off, following our guide into the heart of the Mijas countryside.

The first leg of our tour took us through winding paths surrounded by stunning landscapes. The kids were fascinated by the changing scenery, and I took the opportunity to point out various plants and wildlife native to the region. It was a bumpy ride, but the laughter and excitement from my children made every jolt worth it.

A Scenic Stop

About halfway through our tour, we stopped at a picturesque spot for a photo opportunity. The view was breathtaking, with rolling hills and a clear blue sky stretching as far as the eye could see. Our guide shared some interesting facts about the area, adding a layer of depth to our adventure.

This stop was also a chance for us to switch drivers. My eldest, who had just turned 16, was eager to take the wheel. With a little guidance from our guide, he was soon navigating the buggy like a pro. It was a proud mom moment, seeing him take on the challenge with such enthusiasm.

We were also treated to some refreshments, which were much appreciated after the dusty ride. The kids enjoyed their drinks while I took a moment to soak in the beauty of our surroundings. It was a perfect blend of relaxation and exploration, something I always strive to find in our family travels.

The Final Stretch

As we continued our journey, the terrain became more rugged, adding an extra layer of excitement to our adventure. The kids loved the thrill of the off-road experience, and I enjoyed watching them embrace the adventure with open arms.

Our guide led us to a small natural spring, a hidden gem in the mountains. It was a hot summer day, and the cool water was a welcome relief. The kids splashed around, washing away the dust and cooling off before we headed back to base.

The final stretch of our tour was filled with laughter and dusty trails. As we returned to the base, I couldn’t help but feel grateful for the experience. The Family Buggy Tour in Mijas had provided us with more than just an adventure; it had given us memories to cherish and stories to tell.

For families looking to explore the Mijas countryside in a unique and exciting way, this buggy tour is a must-try. It’s a perfect blend of adventure, education, and family bonding, and I can’t recommend it enough.
