Incredibly fun private tour of Madeira with the best guide ! - This was the most incredible day of our trip. Diogo C was a fun, friendly and enthusiastic guide. He knew so many amazing local places off the beaten path that we would never have seen if we weren’t with him. He made sure we were safe, comfortable and having fun every second of the four. We saw so much of the island and just had the best time. We hope to do another tour with true spirit and Diogo while we are in town. Our adult kids said this was their favorite day of our trip. We did a private half day and it was worth every penny. Just book it- you will have amazing memories!

Nice ride - Half a day on the road with the jeep, seeing beautiful views. The guide was very friendly and told a lot about the island. There was also time for a poncha and coffee. All in all worth it!

Book up now for a full day - Hugo was fantastic. Within minutes of our pickup we changed our booking from half day to full day. Schedule was 100% customised and exactly what we wanted with no tourist trap stops. You need a full day to see just some of the island and enjoy a nice lunch. Hugo is a great driver and guide. Book up now.
