10/10 Well Done :) - Did the central tour with Andrea - a very enjoyable day. Spent some time walking round the sites in Camara de Lobos then up, off road, in to the hills to see a view point down into Nuns Valley. A stop for Poncha, a lunch stop at a restaurant which was good value and all finished off with a visit for some wine tasting. All in all excellent; good explanation of flora and fauna from Andrea and very good fun with my fellow passengers. 10/10,

Like a trip with an old friend - Vitor was super nice and accommodating on the phone & Whatsapp when we booked the tour. And Ricardo is a great guide/companion. Has a wild car. Compared to other "tourist jeeps" we’ve seen around, this one is the one with PERSONALITY. You won’t experience adventure in an air-conditioned box. Ricardo will take you to places you wouldn’t get to by car yourself. Eucalyptus everywhere. NO KOALAS. Real poncha up in the hills (pescador forever!). And much more. Careful, you might even make new friends along the way.

Great tour - Took the half day tour. Worked well and got to see the usual as well as the real side of Maderia. Also saw and tasted real poncho up in the hills. Great to support a small local business. Would definitely recommend and will use them again if we return to Madeira.

Andre the Awesome!! - This was an absolute blast of a day! Andre was a great host, very knowledgeable and an awesome personality! Wise beyond his years! We were challenged with rainy weather and Andre adapted and offered us great local options to wait out the rain. We asked him where we should go for supper, and he said I will take you to a place and wait for you! It was a great recommendation and outside the time of our tour. If you select another company for your 4x4 tour….you’re selecting the wrong vendor!

Great Experience, Great Way to see the Island. - We met our guide, Andrea, nephew of the owner, at the cruise port at the agreed upon time and were joined by another couple to set out on our adventure. Andrea is from the area and made the tour a very interesting yet personal experience. We visited Nuns Valley and the sky view glass platform 590 meters above Funchal, but also a local tavern where he and the owner made us puncho, the local drink of choice, from scratch. We even visited his family vineyard where he explained the wine making and sugarcane processes. We drove the tiny narrow roads no tour bus or van could handle and even off roaded a couple of times. It was a fun, exhilarating adventure with a very personable young man, one we would highly recommend.

Jeep Safari , Madeira - Andre, our driver picked us up at our Ship exactly as advised. A great day exploring the beautiful scenery of Madeira. Andre’s father who was a local land owner knew the island and it history that he enthusiastically passed on. We saw some amazing scenery and our off roading element was also great fun. Thoroughly recommend 100%
