Global warming is an issue that involves all of mankind. At Dune Buggy Adventour we believe that watching over our planet is the way for us to move forward to create a better tomorrow. Mexico’s biodiversity is one of the world’s largest and must be taken care of as we are host of over a 47,000 species of plants and animals. This is why we take extreme care of our protected natural areas. One of them is the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve, that  is part of the World Heritage Center of the UNESCO. Home of the monarch butterfly, this natural reserve watches as millions of butterflies fly from North America to the north-west forest of Mexico City. There they stay until spring when they make an 8 month migration to Canada where 3 or 4 successful generations are born. Another one of the most important natural reserves is the Loreto Bay National Park in Baja California Sur. This natural area is home to 30 different sea mammals species that make up 75% of the whole sea mammal population of Mexico. Down in Cozumel we have the Arrecifes de Cozumel National Park which is part of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef System that is the 2nd largest coral reef system in the world. This is home to the endangerd species including the sea turtles. We invite you to visit these Natural Areas to see for yourself the importance of them for our planet.

Here at Dune Buggy Adventours we build our buggys for them to be the most reliable and functional of among the competition. That’s why we build them with a four wheel drive (or 4X4).  This refers to a two-axled vehicle drivetrain capable of providing torque to all of its wheels simultaneously. These vehicles were first introduced in 1899, the first one was called the Lohner-Porsche, a hybrid car that used an electric motor at each wheel, powered by batteries, which were in turn charged by a gasoline-engine generator. This first model has been put up to a lot of changes through the years. Nowadays almost all new vehicles have the AWD system which refers to a system that applies torque to all four wheels (permanently or on demand) and/or is targeted at improving on-road traction and performance (particularly in inclement conditions), rather than for off-road applications. This type of system helps you with better control on your car and it can get you and your car through some tough situations. We invite you to experience our own 4×4 system in Dune Buggy Adventour.

At Dune Buggy Adventours we go on an off-road trail to visit some of the most amazing hidden and beautiful places in the island. But where should your next amazing off-road experience be? Here we narrow down your search to some excellent off-road locations around the world. First off we have Morocco in North Africa. There you can ride a dune buggy through the Sahara desert, the largest hot desert in the world. Next up  we have California’s Rubicon Trail which you can make your way on a Jeep through Sierra Nevada mountain range, for sights you will remember. Following our list we recommend Transylvania, which is known to be where Dracula lived is also known to be home of the Transfagarasan Road, has been called “one of the craziest mountain roads in the world”.  We can’t wait for you to try for yourself the off-road experience at Dune Buggy Adventour.

The history of the jeep starts in 1941 when the U.S. army asked for a four traction, fast, light and durable vehicle that could withstand difficult missions in Africa and the Europe. That is when American Bantam Car Company and Willys-Overland car companies started producing prototypes for the army. More than 600,000 Jeeps were fabricated during WWII and since then the original vehicle has been improved. The most famous Jeep, the Wrangler, was first introduced in 1987 with the 6 cilinder AMC PowerTech I6 242 engine. The Jeep was built for off-road as it was first designed to provide transportation to the U.S. Army and it has not let down since then. The Jeep now is a well-known car that has different uses , from rock-climbing to everyday use. The versatility of this vehicle inspires us to make our buggys as useful as a Jeep, for you to have an amazing time at Dune Buggy Adventour.
