Before starting the tour, you will receive safety instructions on how to operate the mini buggies (easy-to-maneuver automatic vehicles). Please note that the maximum capacity of each mini buggy is two people, so you can enjoy the incredible route with your partner or a friend while taking in various panoramic viewpoints and spots perfect for taking amazing photos.

The first stop will be at Yumaque Beach, where we will have time to take perfect photos and stroll along the beach. Then we will continue driving through the coastal desert until we reach the Isthmus of the Peninsula viewpoint.
