100% recommended - We were picked up directly by the AIDA. It was a great day trip we had, in perfect German. Spencer has responded to all our wishes and ideas, has also made many great suggestions himself and showed us the most beautiful places in Madeira and told us a lot of interesting and interesting things about the island. We highly recommend this. 100% recommendable!

Amazing adventure with Dinarte - This was one of the most fun adventures we had on the island! We wandered off the beaten path and away from tourists. Dinarte was so much fun and shared so much knowledge about the island, he really felt like old friend! This tour is great for anyone looking for a unique experience.

Fantastic personal tour! - I cannot recommend this tour any higher than 10/10… Dinarte our guide arrived dead on time as we came out cruise terminal and proceeded to take our party of 6 on a fabulous 4 hour tour of Madeira. We were able to go to all the sights and see them before the coaches got there but had a coffee stop and a wine tasting thrown in as well. Dinarte was so passionate about this wonderful Island and knew so much to tell us all, thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend it .

Excellent tour company. Excellent knowledgeable guide. Five star - The tour was amazing. Dinarte was very knowledgeable, his passion for the island was apparent, his humour was very easy going. We gave him a brief and he delivered absolutely. We had such a good few hours exploring the island. Book this tour with this honest company. Five star.

Best trip we ever had - We booked a 4 hour trip as a family with pick up at the port. Spencer picked us up right at the ship and we made a beautiful tour of the island. He responds to all wishes, is very personable and funny. He knows every plant and beautiful corner of the island. We will come back and book another tour with him. 😊

Best tour ever!!! - Unbelievable tour! Don't miss out. Joel was an incredible guide. We felt, afterwards, that it was probably the best tour we have ever had! The tour was personally tailored which met our needs and could not have been better! Thank you Joel for all the wonderful sites we visited and the memories you made for us!

There’s more to Madeira than the tourist brochures! - We booked a half day tour and on the booking form I had said where we didn’t want to go (since we had been there before) but then also mentioned a few random places we hadn’t seen but had heard about. From this rather confused note from me Dinarte constructed the perfect morning tour for our last day. Had we seen the Valley of the Nuns? No? Then we should go there now as there’s not a cloud in the sky and the view will be amazing. It was! And we got there early before the bus tours arrived. From there we had stops at viewpoints above the clouds, drove through the protected forest, went off road, saw waterfalls and steep sided mountains and valleys. Stopped to sample local produce and had plenty of time to take photos of flowers, trees, fields of crops and kiwi fruit and banana passion fruits growing in the wild. Four and a half hours later (it was a very generous half day) we knew a lot more about Madeira and Dinarte and he about us. He will of course take you to whichever places you specify. But to be honest his hidden gems, off the beaten track and coming from his lifetime of living on Madeira showed a more authentic side to the island. What a thoughtful, knowledgable guide who took great care to make sure we had a terrific experience. I wish him all the best in growing a successful business. It’s so well deserved.

A brilliant private tour with a really knowledgeable guide - We were recommended Madeira Insideout by a couple we met at our hotel. Despite originally being fully booked we were contacted to say they could offer us an half-day tour, which we accepted and we are so pleased we did. Dinarte (apologies if incorrect spelling) was so knowledgeable, interesting and friendly and managed to pack in such a lot, although we didn't feel rushed. I am a bit reluctant to praise too highly as we are returning to Madeira next year and want to book a full day tour with them let's hope they aren't fully booked up, because they are so good!

Very special, beautiful and individual tour - A very nice, individual tour. Tours and stops can be planned and made individually and spontaneously. The Spencer guide was great, he explained everything about flora, fauna, politics and general life in Madeira, history and current events.
