The Good, The Bad & The Beautiful - To do this review, I need to break it down into sections I think so that it can be well explained 4x4 tour - we were collected close by to our hotel by a friendly guide/driver, and off we went to collect the other passengers - it was a really hot day and the leather seats were red hot! Once we collected the passengers we set off, our guide was very knowledgeable and it made for a good initial experience. The weather sadly despite being very hot … high up for our first stop “Cabo Girao” sadly it was misty so you couldn’t really see the view … but you cant really control the weather not even in beautiful Madeira and I’m sure on a better day it would of been stunning! After a 30 minute stop it was back into the very hot Jeep again for the off road part, this was through beautiful scenery and breathtaking drops on one side - as we drove along the driver explained that we may need to duck in places if we wanted to stand up and look out of the open roof (nobody did stand up luckily) …. A few moments later a large rock came down the hillside and smashed the windscreen with a huge bang … we were all very shaken, once the guide had cleared the broken glass we continued on our way - I have to say we were all quite nervous at this point as had the accident happened a second later this could of been very serious … health and safety needs to be reviewed here in my opinion … but full credit to the guide for keeping his calm approach! We next went to the vineyard to learn about wine growing and production - such a beautiful spot and the wine & cheese helped calm the nerves! The 4x4 was exchanged for another vehicle and we were driven safely back to our drop off points. I’m sure this was likely a one off event… but it was quite scary if I’m honest … but also well handled by the guide - credit to him!
