Excellent trip
Excellent trip. Gabriel our guide was brilliant. Kept up well informed and brought us to some excellent viewing spots and we also stopped in a bar ip in the hills for a local poncha which was the best we had on our entire trip. We had such a good laugh on the trip.
Really a good three hours spent.

Informative & Entertaining
Using his local knowledge and insight Diego was able to tailor the tour to maximise the best of the weather whilst minimising the potential for crowds and positively changed the schedule to get the most out of the excursion. Great guide and we learned so much about Madeira during the in between bits as we travelled from one sight to another. Great driver and skill fully navigated the tricky mountain roads. Great banter with the group and we shared a lot of laughs along the way. Most definitely recommend and will not hesitate to use again when we return to this beautiful island.

Great way to see highlights of Madeira's Southwest and North Coast
A great way to see and experience the highlights of Madeira's Southwest and North coasts. Multiple stops at incredible vistas, a traditional market, the Fanal Forest, a north shore seaside town for lunch and an optional swim before two stops to view the North Shores highlights (rock formations and waterfalls) along with the famous black sand beach before heading back to Funchal.
And our driver Dinarte filled the windshield time with many interesting facts about Madeira's people, the food, agriculture and small interesting facts.
Gus small can is extremely comfortable for 8 guests - and very comfortable for the drive back to Funchal at the end of the day.
We really enjoyed this tour and highly recommend it!

West of Madeira Tour with Diago
The tour was a great experience. The locations, pace and timing were ideal, giving us a real insight into the West of Madeira. Diago was a great guide and driver, taking lots of care on the challenging roads and making the route very relaxing. He also gave us a great insiders view of the island. We would recommend this trip for anyone.

Great walking tour across the old town with a little surprise
Great walking tour across the old town. The guide was very friendly, informative and helpful. We were a small group which made it even more personal learning about Funchal. Definitely worth the price and would love to try other tours from them as well.

A wonderful way to explore Madeira
The tour in Madeira was very enjoyable and well organized. We saw beautiful landscapes, learned interesting things about the island, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish.
Our guide, Paulo Coelho, was excellent — very knowledgeable, friendly, and with a great sense of humor. He shared many interesting facts and local stories that made the tour even more enjoyable. We would definitely recommend this tour.

Grand day out.
Worthwhile trip visiting some interesting places and with amazing views. (Apart from up in the mountains where fog persisted)
Lionel our driver made the day with his good humour, expert knowledge and obvious passion for his native island.
Thank you for a great day! 😊

A perfectly relaxed tour
Dino was an excellent guide - friendly, knowledgeable and extremely accommodating. The trip felt very relaxed with no pressure on time. He happily answered all our questions and added humour along the way, which made the experience even better. Another highlight was a stop at one of the old Santana houses, where we were able to see what they looked like in the past.

Beautiful hike through nature
This December my wife and I traveled to Madeira for our honeymoon. We knew that we wanted to get out in nature, but weren’t sure what hike to start with. We had a pretty basic checklist. It had to include waterfalls, beautiful views, and be a distance that wouldn’t leave us sore for the rest of our trip. This hike checked all of those boxes and more. Our guide was knowledgeable and shared interesting history about the levadas throughout the hike. It was immediately obvious how much he cared about land and wildlife conservation. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the hike to anyone who asks.

Gorgeous day on the water
Great communication from On Tales up through the morning of the cruise. Had about ten people on the boat during our 10:30 expedition - everybody fit more than comfortably. Beatriz and Bruno were friendly, knowledgeable and skilled and were very up front with the days conditions and expected sightings.
Cruised off Calheta for a while chasing a few dolphins which we managed to see, although they were feeding at the time and not in a bigger school. Lovely ride across long, gentle waves along the scenic south coast. Stop near Porta Do Sol for some swimming and the place lived up to its name with the sun in full effect. Refreshments during the cruise and full access to all areas of the boat.
Even with minimal dolphin and whale activity it was an exceptional day on the water. Highly recommended especially if you prefer a smaller group setting than the larger tourist boats!

Many woohoo! Moments
My husband and I had a great time with Daniella. She created a fun, quirky environment. The many “woohoo!” Moments going down the streets in the tukxi and the many stops were beautiful to take in. We loved that she asked so many questions as she explained the history, it felt like a game or a fun quiz and it made the information last. Thank you Daniella! We loved it!

Well organised and really enjoyable.
Really well organised with good information beforehand. The driver, Radko was punctual, a considerate driver and gave good information and was friendly- all in all, great. Part of the P1 hike is closed so you do an ‘in and out’ of the section of P1- brill views, and then part of the P3 hike. It’s mostly downhill, a mixture of terrain- steps, stone paths and then more challenging narrow stone sections. It’s well marked. It’s really beautiful and we enjoyed it a lot. Would recommend the tour service.
