A unique tour at the East Coast - Susanna was a wonderful guide. She first ask us what we would like to see and proposed then a tailormade program. She knows really well the island. This was the best tour we have ever made. All the spots she showed us were magific. She also know a lot and was telling us many interesting things.

A fabulous day out - We had a fantastic time on this tour. Our guide and driver was Rui, or Roy as he told us to call him. He was friendly, and full of interesting information. His driving was very good, and we all felt very safe with him. The mini bus was comfortable. The places we visited were well chosen, and the views were spectacular. This was one of the highlights of our time in Madeira. Highly recommended.

High quality experience. Best staff - We had 2 transfers from / to the airport and 2 private tours around the island. Very professional. Prompt answers in minutes. Royal punctuality (all cars arrived 15 minutes before departure). Rosa is an excellent manager. A very modern fleet of vehicles, with new and elegant limousines and vans. Manuel, our driver and guide was absolutely exceptional. A person with impeccable behavior, with a remarkable common sense, multilateral knowledge of places visited, culture and history of the island. Perfect recommendations for places to visit and eat. This year, when we return to Madeira, we will once again be happy to call on the services of these absolutely special companies.

Thank you very much for nice tour with a very friendly guide/driver. - Thank you very much for nice tour with a very friendly guide/driver. It’s is so much better to sit in a comfortable car instead of on a bench in a jeep. We already recommended this tour til other cpuples at our hotel.

Excellent private tour - We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the eastern part of Madeira. The beautiful sunny weather was a bonus. Susana was friendly and informative, even phoning ahead to the restaurant at lunchtime to check if they had black tea for my elderly parents!! Highly recommended. Thank you.

A great day out with Susanna! - First of all, this was my husband's favorite tour on our trip and he is hard to impress. Also an amazing value for private tour. Our guide Susanna was right at the gate when we disembarked. She completely customized the day for us, which meant that we also got to see Nun's Valley which is not typically on the eastern tours. Because she knew of a recently opened road from there to Pico Arieiro we were able to see all I wanted that day. As Pico was quite busy with tourists when we arrived, we asked to move on and so we did! She took us to a beautiful overlook before the clouds rolled in, a nice stop at Porto da Cruz for a rum tasting and a short walk, the beautiful Ponta de Sao Lourenco, drive through Machico and Santa Cruz and the amazing overlook and beach at Cristo Rei. A great day and highly recommend for a day on this beautiful island! Thanks Susanna!

Weather or not! - For one day of our stay we picked the wrong one for doing the 3rd highest peak on the island. Unfortunately it was a total cloud cover but our driver Carlos did the best to make up for this. Stopped off for a lovely lunch and also had plenty of other opportunities to capture some wonderful shots and memories. Typically the next day it was clear again. Would do this trip again if we came back but would check the weather forecast as well.
