Amazing experience - A fun and exiting way to see the west of Madeira! Getting to stand up in the back of the Land Rover and ride through the mountains and under waterfalls is an unforgettable experience! Our tour guide Michael was very friendly and knowledgeable. Well worth it!

A great day through Madeira in 4x4 - The 4x4 tour is very good. Especially because of our guide Diogo Camacho. It became one more of us of the 4 couples that went. If you go, let it be Diego Camacho, he will make you have a great day. He is a native and an excellent driver. Thank you Diogo Camacho, it has been a pleasure to have met you. Ask there are several tours, even private ones like ours.

Western Tour with an offroad experience - We had a great day with our driver and guide Gil. The private tour is an excellent way to discover Madeira individually. We gathered a lot of impressions and enjoyed the day very much.

Amazing trip! Highly recommend! - We did the private full day tour - it was an amazing experience. We were staying in Funchal and hadn't rented a car. This trip allowed us to explore the best spots on the island in one full day. Our driver Rui was super knowledgeable, he really made the day a lot of fun and the off-road driving was really cool...definitely something you couldn't do without a guide. Really a must do trip when visiting Madeira.

Excellent private tour - We did a private tour of the west side of the island with Rui. The experience was fantastic - we visited all the just visit sites and many more sites that Rui added on to the trip. It was a wonderful experience in the open top Land Rover and Rui was an excellent drive - both in the on and off road parts of the trip! Rui was also highly knowledgable about the island - its history, vegetation and wildlife. Would highly recommend this tour.
