Nico was such a great guide! He made the entire day fun and exciting (heavy on the exciting), while showing us the most beautiful views! Would definitely recommend!
Very nice trip around Madeira east coast,lovely viewpoints,taste Madeira wine and Afonso the driver and guide born in Madeira ,he has perfect knowledge of the island. We definitely come back !!!
Pedro was an excellent guide and made the day trip very memorable. We took our 3 year old and the company fitted the 4x4 with a child seat which was a nice touch.
Great tour, we enjoyed all the stops and the driver was very informative and fun! We recommend it!!!
Victor was fabulous - effortlessly speaking both French and English, he was both informative and fun! A great trip - lots of fantastic scenery, Victor recommended a restaurant for lunch and phoned our order to them in advance.
Absolutely amazing day yesterday, our guide Nelio was brilliant. The views were incredible, and the off-road section was great fun. Would highly recommend this experience, well worth the extra money vs a larger tour in my opinion. A great way to see the island.
We had a lot of fun on this tour! Every stop had something special and unique about it and the in-between driving (e.g. off-road) kept everyone well entertained! Very kind and enthusiastic driver, spoke excellent in English and French. Would definitely recommend to anyone interested to explore outside of Funchal, as the island is so beautiful.
We thoroughly enjoyed our day trip. Our guide Pedro was friendly and knowledgeable and took good care of us throughout the day. We enjoyed the variety of places we visited during the trip and would highly recommend it. Thank you Pedro!
Great day out. Our guide, Nico, was FANTASTIC and made sure we all had a fun day. Highly recommended.
We had a wonderful time! I screamed a lot 😆😆😆 Nico was a fabulous guide, so helpful. It will be chilly in the morning, 100% take a jumper and a light jacket but you can leave on Jeep when it warms up later in day. ESSENTIAL - book the laverda walk as soon as you make the Jeep safari booking pr11, for about 11:00, 11:30 am
