Buggy Balade 66

Buggy Balade 66 offers guided and rental buggy outings from Rte de Montalba near Ille‑sur‑Têt, using easy‑to‑drive automatic 500cc (and occasionally 800cc) buggies for driver + passenger. Reservations are handled by phone or email; the operator is locally registered and listed in municipal leisure guides.

Rides run on off‑road tracks and rural roads with technical support and a safety briefing included. The base provides helmets and basic instruction; routes showcase nearby foothills, vineyards and panoramic views of the Pyrénées.

Expect a short safety briefing, fitting of helmets and a guided convoy led by an experienced instructor. Vehicles are automatic buggies for one driver and one passenger; drivers must have a valid driving licence.
