Magical Tour - Your staff are a credit to your business…another wonderful day with a fabulous guide (Bruna I believe) so knowledgeable & friendly with such a lot of great information. My hubby & I did the West tour on Wednesday & so glad we booked this tour for today. Outstanding locations with magical views…highly recommend your company & guides. We were never left disappointed at any point of both tours! Madeira is most definitely more than just Funchal! Thank you for a memorable experience…

Great way to see the centre, and northeast of rhe island. - This is a straightforward tour starting in Funchal and going North. We stopped at a couple of places going through the centre of the island including a high point above the clouds 6000ft and a 40 min Lavada walk through the forest. Along the NORTH Coast we went for lunch (optional at €20pp) and visited a rum factory plus other photo opportunities. Our driver was Guillerme and he was informative, clear, multi-lingual and funny. The car was great - we were six in a comfortable 8 seater. It’s a full day with no really long journeys between stops and I’ll post some of the pics which were spectacular but obviously depend on the weather.. Take a jumper as the temperature is much lower when you are up top. Super day out, and great value👍

Stunning views, interesting places to visit, friendly and relaxed day out. - The tour was excellent, the guide, Lucca, was a confident calm driver, he took us to fabulous view points, the short Levada walk was easy to do we had plenty of time at the top of the mountain and at the eastern tip of the island, views stunning and plenty of time for the lunch stop in Santana. Well worth doing this trip and the price was good especially as we saw so much of the island.

Interesting route - The experience was good. Too bad the terrible weather q allowed NO view of the landscape from the peak. The levada walk and the different viewpoints the guide took us to were fantastic. Also the place we ate.
