What are people saying about Madeira

Jeep Tour Amazing West to Natural Pools -Full-Day

Robert_G, Mar 2026

Beautiful Madeira!

Our guide Justino was amazing. Madeira is spectacularly picturesque and the tour hit so many wonderful spots. The only thing to watch out for is how full the Land Rover can be and where you sit. Ours had 8 people plus the driver and we were second last pickup so that meant we were on benches in the back.

Madeira Dolphin and Whale Watching on a Ecological Catamaran

Thea_M, Mar 2026

Incredible boat trip

What a beautiful trip! Being out on the boat for the morning was amazing, although chilly with the breeze - definitely take a jacket! We saw so many dolphins and later a turtle, sadly no whales (I'd really hoped). The views of Madeira as we sailed alongside were stunning and the captain was great at telling us all sorts of facts about the places on the coast. Absolutely recommend going!

Private Madeira Island Tour: The Most Complete 8-Hour Experience

Shannon_C, Mar 2026

• Five Stars Isn’t Enough for this tour

Our Madeira Island tour was absolutely unforgettable, and Luis was truly magnificent. From the moment we started, his knowledge, energy, and passion for the island made the entire experience feel personal and special. He showed us breathtaking viewpoints, beautiful hidden spots, and shared so much about Madeira’s culture and history along the way. What really set Luis apart was his thoughtfulness. When he learned I was celebrating my birthday, he surprised me with a bottle of champagne to take on my hike the next day so I could toast at the top. That kind of personal touch meant so much and made the experience even more memorable. Luis went above and beyond in every way. If you’re planning a tour in Madeira, request him specifically. This was easily one of the highlights of our entire trip. Highly recommended!

Well worth the money, our guide David was informative attentive funny and very professional. Saw far more of the island than we expected, lunch was delicious again worth the money although we were under the impression it was included in the price but it was only 20euros. All round a fantastic experience

Around The Island - Two Days Tour From 9am To 5pm (Each Day)

Craig_A, Mar 2026

Exceptional trip and very good for money!!!

I went on this trip solo and this trip was so accommodating. The drivers (on both of the days) were a fountain of knowledge - they knew the ins and outs of the island. The time at each stop was reasonable and the timing for lunch was long enough. There was plenty of time to capture pictures, ask questions and enjoy each location. I would 100% recommend this excursion with your trip to Madeira to make it an awesome holiday :) - Craig

Full Day Jeep Safari East - Pico do Areeiro - Santana - Ponta de são Lourenço

BonnieMarie_P, Mar 2026

Highly recommend this tour!

What a great day with Silvio. Although the weather for our first stop was not ideal - cloudy, wet, windy and cold- the rest of the day more than made up for a bit of poor weather. This was one of the most fun activities that we have done. Silvio’s sense of humour was infectious and we had lots of fun with his insistence that he really had no licence!! The off roading was great!! Silvio’s knowledge of all the things growing on the island was amazing! The rum factory was a great stop as well. All the look-outs with the exception of the first did not disappoint. All in all a terrific day!

Madeleine_C, Feb 2026

Amazing, friendly, wonderful!

having had a knee injury, we knew we didn’t want to do the full hike so when we saw this shorter route we decided to book. and we are so glad we did. luis, the driver was so lovely, kind and so funny, we had such a laugh on the way to and from the hike and he made us feel very welcome. he was informative about the route, showed us a map and also went above and beyond to give us recommendations for food, activities and more. i will be retuning to madeira and i will be booking with luis again! thanks luis! you made us laugh and hope to see you again one day.

Madeira Highlights: Toboggan, Garden & Cable Car (All-Inclusive)

Brian_M, Jan 2026

Toboggan and Skywalk in Maderia

Originally we were supposed to go on the Cable car and the Toboggan, but the cable car was closed for maintenance. Our guide took us on the Toboggan, then the Botanical gardens, then the Skywalk and finished the trip with a visit to a fishing village. We were extremely happy with th whole experience, it gave us a chance to see what a beautiful island Maderia is.

Taste Funchal: food, wine & cultural tour

ELIZABETH_A, Nov 2025

We really enjoyed the...

We really enjoyed the tour. Our guide was a local who told us some very interesting facts about the island, it's culture and of course food. We ate a lovely variety of things that were in the guidebooks as 'must try' and felt like we were getting them in proper local places and not just tourist traps. Would highly recommend!
