Let's Buggy is a Calheta, Madeira-based adventure operator specializing in off-road Can Am buggy experiences. The company runs five distinct tours that showcase Madeira's coastal vistas, mountain peaks and Laurissilva forests. Signature trips include Trail Thril, a guided climb from Calheta beach to mountain ridges; Sunset Seekers, a route through waterfalls, valleys and remote viewpoints; Laurissilva, a high-altitude exploration with wildlife sightings and carved rock tunnels; Buggy Explorer, which ascends to Paul da Serra and Miradouro das Molinas; and Happy Hour, a short high-energy loop departing from Marina da Calheta.
Each tour departs from locations around Calheta and uses Can Am buggies capable of navigating narrow trails, dirt roads and rocky terrain. Trail Thril is described as guided by experts; other routes emphasize scenic panoramas, challenging tracks and access to viewpoints. Let's Buggy focuses on small-group experiences that combine adrenaline driving with island sightseeing.
Safety is integrated into every outing through vehicle choice and route selection tailored to local terrain. The operator highlights Madeira’s dramatic landscapes, from sea-level beaches to plateaus above 1500 meters, and points to wildlife such as partridges and falcons on higher routes. Bookings typically list clear meeting points like Calheta beach or Marina da Calheta.
