Amazing wine tour experience! - We booked a full day wine tour with Madeira wine tours on June 11, 2025. Communication was great, they were very timely picking us up at our hotel. Our tour guide Roberto Loja was really great telling us about the island as we drove around. Our tour guides at each of the locations were so knowledgeable and provided lots of great information about the history of the vineyards, and the make up of the wines etc ... We had adequate time at each of the stops. The lunch at Quinta fo Barbusano was beyond delicious and filling, the amount of food, and wine, we were served was beyond generous! They kept bringing out espetadas, cooked perfectly to each of our likings, and topping off our wine glasses. All included in the cost of the tour!! Our driver was also great. The views were amazing and it was a nice opportunity to take them all in as I didn't have to drive. Also, enjoyed meeting and interacting with the others in our group. It was very enjoyable and I highly recommend them! 1000% Thank you Roberto and Madeira Wine Tours for such an awesome experience! I can't wait to come back and do it again!

Wine tasting trip in Madeira - Just back from our full day wine tasting trip and we have had a fabulous day. Alberto was an excellent driver and drove on the narrow roads with skill and confidence. Our guide Roberto was knowledgeable and professional but more than that his open personality and easy humour made him feel like a friend very quickly. The group we joined was only seven participants in total and it was a good size to hear all the details and ask questions. I would definitely recommend this trip.

Leisurely day of wine... - Leisurely day of wine tasting and seeing the island, with a great guide. We learned the difference between Madeira Wine and Madeiran Wine, and walked along stunning vineyards and saw beautiful views of the island. Lunch was delicious, and the opportunity to try Madeira Wines made by two different methods was really interesting. One of the highlights of our holiday. Being in a small group was really great, we had plenty of opportunities for questions and we didn’t feel rushed at any point during the day.

Enjoyable. Tasty. Great time. The vendors selected are top notch and tour guide is the best on the island!! - Best tour we performed with on Holdiay. Roberto truly cared we had the best time and ensured all of us were taken care of. He was funny and knowledgeable about the island. Best of all the wine was delicious.

Full Day Wine Tour From Funchal - Full Day Wine Tour From Funchal with visits to 3 producers, wine ratings and lunch. We were picked up as planned from our hotel in Monte, Funchal. Roberto was a knowledgeable, personable and very humorous guide. First stop on the tour comprised an introduction by Daniela to the process of making Madeira wines at major producer Blandy's followed by tastings. Next stop was Quinta do Barbusano a vineyard in the most beautiful and spectacular setting in Sao Vicente near the north coast of the island. Here we viewed vines on steep hills, were briefed on the challenges in producing their non fortified wines, sampled them and enjoyed a substantial and delicious lunch with our favourite wine. Finally via some breathtaking views on the North Coast we returned to Funchal to visit the high tech Vinhos Barbeito; toured their impressive production facilities; sampled their fortified wines; bought our favourite. A throughly enjoyable and facinating day. Highly recommended.

Wonderful Wine tour in Madeira - Roberto was an Excellent and knowledgeable guide with a great sense of humour. I would thoroughly recommend this tour which starts at Blandys and ends at Barbeito. In the middle is lunch and wine tasting at Barbugano. A thoroughly enjoyable day with an excellent guide and very safe driver which is needed on the roads in Madeira. Thank you Roberto.
