This trip is a must - you get to see so much of the island in a day. We had Diego C as our driver - he was excellent. Very knowledgeable, fun and gave clear timings. He went out his way to give an excellent experience. We booked a jeep tour to make it more enjoyable and we would definitely recommend.

We had an amazing time with our guide Miguel. He was very knowledgeable and a great driver. The sites around Madeira were beautiful! Particularly in Ponta do Sol. The off road part was also amazing fun! We would recommend this trip to anyone visiting Madeira. Great value for money and great fun!

Fantastic tour- start to finish!

Debra_B, Apr 2026
Fantastic day start to finish! If only one day in Madeira, this is the tour to do. Bring bathing suit to swim in the pools. Highly recommend this tour!

A must Do

Lori_G, Apr 2026
This is a must for first time visitors. The places that David G took us were breathtaking and we would never have made it by car. He made the experience fun and was very informative. Thank you David.

4x4

Samantha_S, Mar 2026
Well worth the money, our guide David was informative attentive funny and very professional. Saw far more of the island than we expected, lunch was delicious again worth the money although we were under the impression it was included in the price but it was only 20euros. All round a fantastic experience

Won’t to do it again.

Charlotte_T, Mar 2026
Unfortunately the weather stopped us doing the forest and off roading. But Miguel was amazing we learnt and saw so much about the island. Would love to do it again on a sunny day.

Just do it. And ask for Tony!

Glynn_T, Feb 2026
It was great fun. We saw so much of the island and Tony (make sure to request Tony G) was a font of information and funny. It was a great way to explore the north and west of the island. The lunch stop was especially good. They were very friendly and attentive and the food was superb. Make sure to get the steak on a hot stone. I will recommend this tour to all of my friends that come to explore Madeira. Worth every penny! And I will be taking their East side tour next visit! Side note: take a jacket or windbreaker. It can get cold, even in sunny weather.

Great trip

andrea_c, Feb 2026
Great way to see so many beautiful sights and places iall in one day . Lovely friendly driver/guide . Only slight downside was you couldn’t hear what he was saying in the back of the jeep !

Excellent trip - Diego C is a brilliant host.

Anzhela_T, Feb 2026
All the time you just drive around in a car, in one location you spend 10-15 minutes, the longest stop was 40 minutes, it’s not worth the money.

Fabulous day - despite the weather!!

suryemist, Feb 2026
A great way to explore the island and especially with a guide as knowledgeable as Tony. What a charachter - he had us laughing all the time and he was a very experienced driver who knew even the smallest and most difficult to drive roads. The places we stopped for a drink and lunch were great - food was was tremendous. The weather wasn't great but it didn't dampen our spirits - a brilliant trip!

Great jeep adventure

Oona_W, Jan 2026
Our guide , Eddie, was very interesting & informative about Madeira, its plants, and places we were visiting that day, also helpful and respectful. He gave detailed outline of the day's plan, and the times to return to the jeep for the next part of the tour. Super trek in the jeep, on Eucalyptus forest tracks, steep roads and on the main roads. Visited everywhere we were keen to see, and gave sufficieng time in each place. Eddie is one fab driver!

Good day out!

Carlsberg Day Madeira

Raymond_C, Dec 2025
Fantastic trip - great mix of cultural with fun swim at the Porto Muniz pools and off road landrover thrills and spills. Diogo is a fantastic guide !!

Great tour, nice guide. Adventurous jeep ride.

Lily_M, Dec 2025
Our guide was very friendly and informative. The tour just hit the perfect places that I wanted to see. Fanal forest, Porto Monitz, cabo Girao all were really good. The only thing is our guide recommended a lunch place in porto monitz that is overpriced. I understand he was promoting local economy. But that was the most expensive lunch. Ouch!!

Awesome experience!

Kent_P, Dec 2025
This was an overall great experience! Even though the weather got a little ugly on the north side of the island, David made it a very enjoyable experience. We got to see a lot of sights and when the weather cooperated back towards the south of the island, he opened up the top of the jeep.

Heather_B, Nov 2025
Great way to see lots of sites in one day. Fantastic bonus of standing up in the jeep through the forest.

Nicest places poor guide

Khalid_A, Nov 2025
Jacket is important during Nov, the plan is not clear enough from the guide (the driver), the Land Rover car takes 8 people and it is not comfortable. In the swim areas, there are no change places but you can change for the swim suite on the restroom of any nearest restaurant.

Fantastic tour

denise_W, Nov 2025
This is a fantastic tour. Highly recommend to everyone. Great communication with company and Miguel was a great tour guide.

Mediocre For the Price

Mercy_A, Nov 2025
Robert was great, but the tour felt mediocre for the price we paid. Lunch, which is usually included on every other tour we’ve been on, was not included this time. The tour through the forest was scenic but very windy, and the overall experience didn’t feel worth the cost. Technically, you could do this on your own, and for the price, it felt overpriced. Overall, I probably wouldn’t do this tour again.

Good fun in a jeep

Clark_S, Oct 2025
Lots of fun. We did not have the best weather for the pools and the forest (and for the off road bit), but it was still good fun … and likely a better day in the mist and the wet than other alternatives …

Best tour ever, request Graham!

Danielle_M, Oct 2025
If there is ANYTHING you do in Madeira, it's this tourrrr!!! Specifically Graham... He was absolutely phenomenal and it was such a a blast having him as our tour guide. You go to so many different spots throughout the day and the old jeeps are so cool! We recommend the fish and bananas (I know it sounds weird) and steak on a rock for your optional meal at lunch. Overall BEST THING TO DO WHILE HERE, 10/10 ⭐

A Must do in Madeira

Nicole_J, Oct 2025
This is such a fun experience! My mom, sister and I did it together, definitely recommend. Only thing I would change is I would recommend doing the public pool option not private.

Madeira west tour

Sivarajah_S, Oct 2025
Lovely places, Silva was an excellent driver and guide. The time we spent in each locations were just right. Scenery were awesome.

East/north if Madeira 4x4 tour

Kathy_R, Oct 2025
Great experience with Graham, who was a driver with great knowledge of the island. His driving skills were impressive making for a fun day out visiting several sites on the east/north of the island. 4x4 off road was a blast! Thankyou!

West Madeira Jeep Adventure - on and off road

Adrian_R, Oct 2025
Great adventure on and off road in a jeep. Brilliant way to see the western part of Madeira. Varied landscapes from sea to mountain. For those of us who suffer car sickness, dont forget the tablets! It's a full on ride for the day, but we'll worth it 👍

Beautiful sights of Madeira west

Carl_S, Oct 2025
Jazz was sensational guide. Kept us on time, gave us fun insights, great music. He’s an amazing singer, btw! 😇 stopped at some great spots, got us in front of crowds effortlessly. Great tour of Madeira West. I would recommend any day!

Lost my hat but the driver reversed (a fair way!) and picked it up!

Phil_R, Oct 2025
Hold into your hats and be ready to experience full on 4WD!!! Saw a lot of Madeira I wouldn't have!! Including the suicidal geckos!!

Nadia_A, Oct 2025
An amazing tour of the west side of the island! The tour was fantastic and guided was very informative! Would recommend for a group and solo travelers!

A great day!

LaurieAnn_D, Oct 2025
