We consider correlated L\'evy walks on a class of two- and three-dimensional deterministic self-similar structures, with correlation between steps induced by the geometrical distribution of regions, featuring different diffusion properties. We introduce a geometric parameter $\alpha$, playing a role analogous to the exponent characterizing the step-length distribution in random systems. By a {\it single-long jump} approximation, we analytically determine the long-time asymptotic behavior of the moments of the probability distribution, as a function of $\alpha$ and of the dynamic exponent $z$ associated to the scaling length of the process. We show that our scaling analysis also applies to experimentally relevant quantities such as escape-time and transmission probabilities. Extensive numerical simulations corroborate our results which, in general, are different from those pertaining to uncorrelated L\'evy-walks models.
