Had a great day, our guide Matteus was very informative and welcoming. Stopped off at some great places - we especially enjoyed Porto Moniz. Good for all ages - our 16 year old loved going off-road.

Great way to got off the beaten track

Anthea_D, Sep 2026

Jeepers that was good

Lloyd_L, Sep 2026
Great fun in the 4x4 going through the city and forests, the misty bay forest is awesome and the swimming pools aren’t as cold as you may think. Bring some change for the lockers.

Good day out! Not so good being stuck in the front seat

David_W, Aug 2026
Good day out, great driver and guide who done his best to make the day great despite the not so great weather. Only issue for me was I was sat in the front the front seat so never got to sit in the open top bit of the jeep which was the main point for the trip being booked. Something for anyone booking to consider as you miss out on the standing up on the off road sections which I am told was good as my wife was sat in the back.

Fantastic day out, highly...

Lukia_H, Aug 2026
Fantastic day out, highly recommend this if you're visiting Madeira. Lots to see and do. Our guide Joao was great, informative, friendly and thankfully a great driver. We had a ball, planning our next trip back!

A wonderful day with a Super Guide

Fun, exciting, big elevation changes, Sharp curves, extremely scenic. A all around great day, Super guide.

Crystal_H, Aug 2026
Saw all the sites of the North and West side of the island. Favorite part was lunch and the “off road” experience at the end. There was no way I could’ve driven the narrow streets of all the towns and our guide did great although it was an adventure in itself.

Awesome experience! Recommended!

Madeleine_S, Aug 2026
Graham (sorry if it’s Graeme) was awesome! Super knowledgeable, a 4x4 experience from SOUTH AFRICA in Madeira, as a Saffa I can tell you it’s and Experience. So worth it! Please do it! We had an awesome time it was fun and definitely an awesome way to experience the true, beautiful, wild and mad super changing climates of the island. I don’t think you get to know the island truly unless you do one of these trips. (I.e staying in your resort is just a shame) the only thing I will say is change the restaurant of choice please.. it doesn’t match the wow factor. That said, it was such a flippen awesome experience I cannot knock it any stars for restaurant vibes.. I’d recommended this strongly to anybody. Thanks Graham for a lekker, authentic and wild experience. Made our trip!

Great way to see the west...

Kathryn_W, Aug 2026
Great way to see the west side of the island in one day. We really enjoyed the open top Jeep for the amazing views. You don’t stop very long anywhere except Porto Moniz pools but even then go straight in as the time flies by and you can get drinks there.

Perfect day in Madeira

MarcoA_R, Aug 2026
EVERYTHING was amazing, Joao was simply incredible, service oriented, no rush, explaining everything in detail, ensuring everyone was having fun. Had 3 teens with us and everyone had a perfect story of the day. Great locations and highlights across the island. My wife left her phone on the jeep and the company ensure it was returned to us in less than 1 hour. Highly recommend the tour, the company and specially Joao

Expérience from Andrea and René from Belgium

Our guide, David, es great. He explains very good the history of Madeira. Very nice trip. We recommended the trip to 100%

Wild drive and great experience

Mette_L, Jul 2026
It was amazing We had so much fun. The guide - Miquel, gave us a great time. Very informative and cheerful A small minus was the fix lunch.. we would liked a much lighter lunch and spend more time in the pools of Ponto Moniz or Seixal beach The last 20 minutes on the highway was also not very comfortable as we are driving fast in an open car But the tour was amazing and I would definitely recommend this

Great trip

Lewis_W, Jul 2026

Amazing way to visit the island!

Beata_E, Jul 2026
We have booked the trip with my husband, first time in Madeira! It was an amazing day we truly enjoyed every place we have seen and the time was perfect! We have seen so many beautiful places during a day and Andre our tour guide was great! He shared so many interesting facts about Madeiras and made the day funny and truly enjoyable! We enjoyed to see all these beauty spots 🥰

We had an amazing time on the open-top Jeep tour around Madeira! It was a brilliant mix of fun, adventure, and breathtaking scenery. The views throughout the trip were incredible, and there was plenty of time at each stop to take everything in without feeling rushed. Our driver was fantastic—an excellent driver who made the off-road sections smooth, exciting, and really enjoyable. He was also funny, entertaining, and incredibly knowledgeable about the island, sharing lots of interesting information about the places we visited. The lunch stop was also very good. Overall, this was one of the highlights of our trip to Madeira, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable way to explore the island!

A fun and unique day out!

Chloe_H, Jul 2026
We had such a fun day with Robert! He was very enthusiastic and had lots of interesting facts about Madeira, particularly the plant life. We enjoyed all the stops and the restaurant for lunch was fun and a good meal. We would have loved a little extra time at some of the stops, particularly Sexial and Fanal Forest as most of the stops are only about 20 minutes and Fanal Forest is quite large and there seemed a lot to explore but we simply did not have time. Overall a good way to see a lot of places in the span of a day and really fun to ride in the jeep.

Must do trip, would highly recommend to anyone visiting Madeira!

What an amazing day from...

Mark_R, Jun 2026
What an amazing day from start to finish! This tour is such a great way to see so many of Madeira’s most beautiful places in one day. Every stop was unique, from the stunning natural pools at Porto Moniz to the breathtaking views at Seixal, the magical Fanal Forest, and the incredible Skywalk. Our tour guide, Michael, was fantastic. He was really funny, friendly, and made sure we got the most out of the whole experience. He shared lots of interesting information and made the day enjoyable from beginning to end. You get to see so much, and it’s definitely worth the money. I’d also recommend taking your swimwear so you can enjoy the natural pools. You can safely leave your belongings in the tour vehicle while you swim, and there are facilities to get changed at the stops. This was one of the highlights of our holiday, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Madeira!

Julie_g, Jun 2026
Do not book with True spirit. The lunch is horrible and a tourist trap. Every company stops at the same sites. Pick one that brings you to a decent lunch.

Best experience.

Patricia_S, Jun 2026
Friendly informative and fun. Our tour guide was very nice and a great driver. The views were incredible and it was a very fun ride. I would highly recommend this company and ask for Luis he is amazing driver with a great personality.

Thrilling

Edmond_O, Jun 2026
Thrilling! Ooohs! and Ahs! Graham’s (True Spirit) short cuts are not to be missed. The whole tour was amazing. Will definitely do it all over again and again.

Great Day Trip

From Levadas to Mountain Peaks – Brilliant Day Out

Mike_H, Jun 2026
What a brilliant 4x4 tour! Pedro brought fantastic energy, passion and knowledge throughout the day, making the experience both informative and great fun. Manu the Land Rover ran smoothly and confidently, giving us a comfortable ride while showing us some amazing sights. Excellent service from start to finish. Highly recommended! Fanal Forest 🌳 at 1600 metres and lunch stop at Seixal was perfect.

4x4 Jeep Tour Experience ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5)

Michael_F, Jun 2026
We had a great experience on our Madeira 4x4 tour with Luigi. He was incredibly kind, welcoming, and worked hard to make sure we saw all of the major highlights included on the itinerary. Even when the weather didn’t fully cooperate, Luigi went out of his way to adjust the day and return to certain locations he felt were important for us to experience during our visit to the island. His knowledge of Madeira’s history and culture added a lot of value to the tour, and we appreciated the stories and insights he shared throughout the day. It was clear that he genuinely cared about providing a memorable experience for his guests. Overall, I would recommend both Luigi and this 4x4 tour company to anyone looking to explore Madeira’s beautiful landscapes and learn more about the island. Thank you for a wonderful day!
