      This was an excellent tour. It took us to the highlights of the East Side of Madeira Island. Our tour guide, Alex, was absolutely amazing, very kind and knowledgeable. I felt very safe driving with Alex. He took very good care of us and made sure we had a great time. He navigated the narrow mountain roads with precision and expertise.I would highly recommend this tour as well as Alex as a tour guide.

      Fantastic trip and guide to this trip. I truly recommend it as the scenery is out of this world. Never thought that we were going to be above the clouds!

      Fantastic day out

      Very interesting day. The guide had lots of knowledge and was very friendly. Good choice of places to stop. Thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend.

      Excellent value tour of key sights of east Madeira

      Lynsey_H, Sep 2024
      Excellent tour in a comfortable air conditioned minibus of various key points of interest to the east and also slightly north with an experienced and very friendly driver who gave us ample enough time per stop to see the sights and didn't rush you. A nice 3 course lunch with wine/water/coffee was arranged via the driver in Santana at 22 euros each you wished. Drove high up into the mountains including to Ribeira de Frio and to Pico Arieiro. Very highly recommended tour with convenient hotel entrance pick up and option to delay payment to 2 days before if you need, or even cancel should you change your mind.

      4x4 surprise

      Claire_c, Jun 2024
      We were not told the trip was full and a substitute was sent! Felipe though was brilliant! We had a 4x4 and we went places I never imagined were possible! The views were amazing even if my height anxiety got me at points. A beautiful day out with Trailblazers even if it wasn’t what we had booked.

      Great day out

      Great tour of the North West of Madeira, with very knowledgeable guide. Was full day, 9-6pm Would thoroughly recommend.

      I hired her in Spanish and she wasn't. Also the information shared is very poor, the next day I was with some boggies around the island and the teacher, native, practically knocked down everything I had been told on this excursion, expensive and disappointing

      A very nice east coast tour of Madeira experienced. Had first considered that everything works out, but everything was super organized. Tour guide was great, explained well and helped. Had a lot of fun and experienced many great impressions. Will book my trips again in the next holiday ,via Viator. Thank you very much
