See the West at his Best with 101 tours ! - If you want to see the real “wild” west of Madeira; book with 101 tours! Antonio is an experienced driver who guided us safely with his jeep over beautiful, authentic and deserted back roads and showed us a lot of pure nature. We had enough time to walk around, swim at Porto Moniz, have lunch in a cozy restaurant and climb to a breathtaking viewpoint, without mass tourism! So forget Cabo Girao and book with Antonio !

Great views and hidden places with nobody else around! - I would definitely recommend this tour and Antonio was an amazing tour guide. We were picked up from the hotel and dropped off in time to be ahead of everyone and to find a perfect spot for ourselves to watch the sunrise. After that, Antonio took us to levadas and we had the whole place for ourselves as he knew just the right time when to get there. I could not fault this tour! Just make sure you listen to him when he says please wear warm clothing 🤭

Beautiful Madeira with a great guide! - Antonio stepped in at short notice and despite everything was at the port very quickly to pick us up. Within 6 hours we were able to admire the most beautiful sides of Madeira's north and west. The guide was very nice and accommodating. If we are in Funchal again, we will definitely book another tour with Antonio!
