Superb Tour of West Madeira!
What a brilliant way to see the west side of this beautiful island! We had an amazing day out visiting various points of interest. Our host Neli was fantastic, very friendly and knowledgeable. My 7 year old loved the shortcuts where we got to stand up in the open-top jeep! Other highlights included the thrill of standing on the glass floor at Cabo Girão, having a wander in the misty Fanal forest, and swimming in the volcanic pools at Porto Moniz. Would highly recommend this tour!

A Most Enjoyable Day
Fabulous day had with our guide and driver, Ben. Very knowledgeable and friendly and we both enjoyed our walk and the company of our group.
The walk itself is set mostly through trees and does have many steps, both up and down. Finishing with a walk through a 800 metre tunnel.
Highly recommended.

Nadia Nailed It! Beautiful Hike!
First, our host, Nadia greeted us warmly. Pickup was on time. She explained everything well on the drive up. She noted all of the best viewers and stopped at perfect moments (when we were exhausted) to give us great history of the area/island. It was a very tough hike at times (for me, 45 y/o male, average fitness). Lots of steep uphill climbs. Ultimately the payoff was at the end. You will be walking in the clouds.

Very good experience , is definitely worth it!. Mauricio is a fantastic tour guide and his driving skills are 10/10 literally felt like a little rollercoaster at times due to the curvy roads in Madeira. You get to see all the island with some amazing sights, Mauricio was very informative throughout the tour and drove us to multiple free locations where theres no charge and still had the same views ! Personally I loved this ! We did make a quick stop towards the end of the tour for some Poncha 😅 which was a great end to the tour . I would definitely recommend!

Sights of a lifetime🩷💚
Marco was awesome. He was knowledgeable, funny, courteous, engaging, and a wonderful spirit.
We saw so many amazing views. Got to try pancha for the first time. It was truly lovely❣️ Met some great travelers and loved every minute of it.
My only regret is that I had run out of euros during the trip, as I didn't plan ahead. I couldn't give Marco a tip. For this I'm sorry. Though my tip would be anyone booking this trip, I hope you get Marco!

Coastline and Cliffside Tour
A great chance to sample and see different parts of island life. Taking in scenic coastlines rugged cliff sides and forests along the way with the odd banana farms and vineyards. We had the bonus of having a local guide Joe giving an insight to his life on the island. He was informative and knowledgeable and amusing and gave us plenty of opportunities for snapping pics of Madeiras gorgeous landscape.

Whole day tour was fantastic!
Truly an extraordinary way to see the whole island highlights in one day. Carefully curated so your ahead of the crowds, allowed time to wander, take photos along the way. Better than I imagined. Luis explained things along the way, never rushed or hovered. He is native to Madeira and it shows the passion he has for this beautiful island. Hands down the best way to see the island in one day.

Tuk Tuk with John
We took the Tuk Tuk tour in Madeira and it was fantastic. It’s a great way to see the highlights of the city and learn about its history. John was our guide and did an outstanding job. He was so knowledgeable and friendly and fun. And I had injured my knee and he helped me in and out of the Tuk. We were never rushed so we had long stops to make sure we saw everything. Also took us to a bakery that makes this wonderful dessert. Can’t remember the name but this place makes the original. I would definitely ask for John if I was going on the tour

Dino was an excellent driver and guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the island, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We had more than enough time at each stop to explore, take photos, and do everything we wanted without feeling rushed. Overall, it was a fantastic tour, and we would highly recommend it.

Great tour.
This was a great trip. Christian was an excellent guide. There were only 8 of us in the van. The van was small but comfortable even for tall people. We made many stops as shown on the itinerary. We got picked up around 9 am and were back around 6 pm. It was a long day but definitely worth it b

Great open top jeep tour
We had a great time on this open top jeep tour. Our driver was great fun and took us to some stunning viewpoints. We also stopped off for a traditional Madeiran lunch as well as some rum tasting. One of the highlights was the off road driving and walking to the Balcoes viewpoint.

Best way to see Madeira
This is the best way to see the island. We had the same guide for both the East and West tour of Madeira and he constantly provided us with information throughout the tour. The scenery was spectacular and the ease of not having to drive ourselves made for a fabulous day.
