Discover Shaka Adventure

Shaka’s routes are designed to show you the “other side” of the area — pine forests, mountain tracks, panoramic viewpoints, and inland villages that you simply wouldn’t reach on a normal sightseeing trip. You’ll head out from Calpe with a guide, get clear safety instructions, and enjoy a properly off-road experience with plenty of photo moments along the way.

They offer several standout options, including a longer inland adventure to Fuentes del Algar (with a stop to enjoy natural mountain waters), plus shorter mountain routes around Sierra Oltá, and a smaller-group sunset tour to a secret viewpoint.

Our tip: If you want the “big day out” experience, the Fuentes del Algar (4h) route is the one that feels like a real mini-adventure, not just a quick ride.

What adventurers say about Shaka Calpe

69+ Reviews with a 4.8 rating on Google.

Whole family 4 of us really enjoyed our 4hr buggy tour with Max from Shaka adventures. Easy going smooth organisation. Variety of terrain including rough trails through to fast tarmac. Buggy was excellent fun, easy to handle. Nice stop at the Algar waterfalls and complimentary drink thrown in. Waterfall was busy didn’t have to queue. Overall highly recommended and good break in middle of holiday.

I don’t often do reviews but I was so pleased with the adventure and the hospitality of the staff. We got to go through all the dirt roads of calpe, exploring the mountain ranges and going onto some cool roads.

We was then taken to a waterfall which was so beautiful and we spent an hour there, swimming and jumping into the water.

The most commendable part of the experience was the tour guide stopped off for a minute and ran and got us all a big bottle of water each as it was incredibly hot and he did not need to do that.

I recommend this buggy tour, 5* experience and a great day out! Thank you Shaka Adventures!

Johnny was great. We did the 4 hour trip off road and to the Algar Falls. 3 adults, 5 kids in two vehicles. Great fun, nice vehicles. Looking forward to our next time.

EDIT: Did another trip yesterday with family and friends and another amazing time. We did the two hour mountain adventure without the waterfall trip. Still highly recommended and will definitely do it again!
