      If the weather was clear the tour would have been perfect. Driver was excellent

      Beth_P, Feb 2024
      The tour guide was funny and engaging. I think it was Renauldo. He took us to fun places all day including the rum factory. Highly recommended.

We appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for more adventures in the future! Feeling Madeira

      Beautiful East coast

      Sylvia_D, Sep 2023
      I did both coasts but I loved the east both dramatic scenery and beautiful areas. Very pretty along the way, we loved the whole day, and the lovely houses made it perfect,

      Disappointed

      Jenny_W, Feb 2022
      We do go around the East island but the description of the stops and the time spent at each was just wrong. I understand itineraries change but we only stopped for about 20mins at each, some should have been longer to do a bit of a walk like the advertised 1hr and others it was hard to fill the 20mins. The worst part was spending 1hr 40min in Santana to try and take us to a specific restaurant. The sights of Santana take about 20 mins max so most of the group just had to wait. The guide tried to do his best to chat away but I think quality over quantity would help.

      Response from Host, Feb 2022
