East & West Coast Jeep Safari - We did the West and East Coast jeep safaris and both offered stunning scenery and a good insight to this beautiful island. We visited all the key locations and there were plenty of off road routes through forests and hills which you wouldn't get to see with a minibus trip. Victor was our driver/guide on both tours and he made the trips so enjoyable with his knowledge and sense of fun and he made regular stops in the jeep to give us plenty of photo opportunities. Would highly recommend and can't wait to return to explore more!

Like their slogan: No one can do it better...except Ernesto! - If you want to get to know Madeira, this is the way! What an excursion...Ernesto, our driver, is competent and with funny stories a delight to spend the day! With his broad knowledge of the island, he brought us closer to Madeira! Since it goes a good 1800 m up the mountain, a jacket and any rain jacket is recommended.

We Visited Places Inaccessible to Autos - The company picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel. We traveled along surfaces we could not have visited in a rental car. Our driver/guide recommended a particular restaurant for lunch and it was excellent. Our driver was an excellent driver.

This was an outstanding experience!! - We had a group of 13 & were in 2 Jeeps. Each group raved about their driver. Both drivers were fun, informative & really catered to our needs. We simply had an amazing day & can’t recommend them enough!

Incredible - We took a tour to the west side and another to the east side. On the west side, we only did 3/4 minutes of off-road driving with the guide Victor, which was disappointing for a jeep tour.
On the east side, we had an amazing guide who took us to the mountains and we literally drove for almost an hour in the forest in a real off-road experience.
Thank you Silvio for this incredible day.
