Unique moments
We experienced unique moments and saw dolphins, beaked whales, and a hammerhead shark. Amazing to see the animals so close. On the trip, we also encountered flying fish. All in all, we had a very nice tour on the sea. Many thanks to the friendly team :)

Great hike - PR1 Sunrise
My wife and I did the PR1 sunrise hike with David and it exceeded our expectations. David was a tremendous guide - he was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. We aren’t experienced hikers but he made it feel very comfortable and fun at the same time. The views were beautiful and worth the early wake up. Pickup & drop off were seamless and super easy as well. We highly recommend!

Great Experience and Highly Recommend
We had a great experience on this tour! Our tour guide was super friendly, funny, and knowledgeable. He gave us clear directions and shared some really helpful tips before the hike. My wife had twisted her ankle, and he was incredibly thoughtful in explaining our alternatives in case we weren't able to complete the main hike. I also forgot to bring water, and thankfully, he had an extra bottle that he kindly gave me. We really appreciated how helpful and accommodating he was throughout the experience. Highly recommend this tour!

🤩🤩🤩 Wonderful experience!!! 🤩🤩🤩
We had a wonderful time with the Blue Safari team!
A small group of 20 people and a fast boat allowed us to reach several sites where crowded catamarans only saw one or two.
At each stop, our very friendly guide informed us about the animals present, then he went back to see each participant to repeat the explanation in our language and complete the explanations if needed.
During the two hours, we were able to see a group of pilot whales, then flying fish and several spotted dolphins that came to play around the boat. A superb moment!!!
Thanks again to the Blue Safari Madeira crew!!!

Great trip around the island.
A great safari drive around the island. Pedro was great, very informative and a great tour guide.
The thermal pools were great, remember to pack a swimming costume though.
The forest was a bit wet and muddy, so remember to pack well for that part of the tour.
Overall a great experience that I would so again.

Excellent tour of Madeira
Diogo our driver and tour guide messaged me ahead of time to say he’d be the cruise terminal to pick us up. He arrived promptly and our family of 6 were shown to his clean and comfortable minibus.
We wanted to ride on the toboggan as most tourists to Madeira do and he dropped us all at the top of the hill at the station. Diogo then met us at the bottom and we proceeded with the rest of the tour which took us to various viewing points with ample time for photos.
Diogo was an excellent guide and accomplished driver on the narrow Madeira roads.
I highly recommend this tour with Diogo.

Hiking tour with great views
The hike was fantastic.
Great impressions that the sunrise gave us and an exciting (we are not amateur hikers) hiking tour afterwards. Which was totally worth it. The views were breathtaking (so just one photo, so as not to spoil it too much).
Short tips from us:
- wear clothing against wind and cold (especially in the morning at sunrise it is miserable).
- however, when the sun comes up later, you have to be out and about in a T-shirt at times.
- wear good, sturdy shoes for hiking.
- you don't have to sprint. The pickup time is very well and comfortably calculated.
Have fun and enjoy nature.

Relaxed day full of beautiful places.
It was a beautiful tour of this part of the island. We visited several (natural) sights in 1 day where you can take a break before continuing to the next location. Miquel is a nice boy who can tell you different things about the island and the places you visit. As a finale, a wine tasting would have been certainly nice and enjoyable to experience.

Fabulous day trip in Madeira
Andreas is the owner of SafariCo, the tour company. He was a great tour guide, a native of Madeira and knew everything about it. We visited the Skywalk, Porto Moniz, Fanal Forest, drive through some bumpy roads through the middle of the island, fun day. I highly recommend SafariCo.

Awesome tour!
Luis was amazing! We had the best time touring this gorgeous island! Luis is extremely knowledgeable about the island and is willing to offer help and suggestions on what to do and where to eat/drink. The best day we've had in our 2 week Portugal vacation! If you come to Madeira, do this tour!

Knowledgeable and well paced
Suzanna was an excellent guide and truly knowledgeable about the island’s history. She took her time walking through the details and stories, which made everything much more interesting. I was jet-lagged and she was patient and accommodating the whole way through. Highly recommend.

Very beautiful tour with breathtaking landscapes.
The excursion was definitely worth it; you get to see countless beautiful landscapes. Our guide Enia, an authentic Madeiran, passionately shared her homeland with us through interesting explanations. There are plenty of highlights on this tour (see photos). My tips: definitely bring a hat and sunscreen, as you will be driving with the top down the entire tour. Although not much hiking is done, one should still consider wearing sports shoes, as you are on your feet quite a bit and have uneven ground at the levadas or in the mystical forest. In Porto Moniz, I liked the natural pools without an entrance fee the best; they were more authentic and there was less crowding.
