Mountain tour - Diogo was amazing. Made it so much fun and had lots of stories to tell. Even stopped to find out what type of flower I wanted to know! Amazing! Cannot recommend enough!

The real Madeira - Gil was a wonderful guide on this jeep safari to the East of the island. He was an excellent driver over very tricky terrain and very informative about culture and plants. The weather was disappointing at first for the trip to the top of Pico do Arieiro but the sun peeped out to allow an amazing view. Stunning scenery rest of trip. A must do adventure when on a short holiday to this beautiful island.

Book this - you won’t be disappointed - An amazing tour with Gil. I am not sure what I expected although knew that we would be travelling in a 4x4 vehicle - on main roads, off road and down small narrow lanes this was a thrill not to be missed. Gil looked after our group really well and gave us plenty of time at each stop with some ad-hoc stops along the way to view/taste some of the vegetation. Would definitely recommend

Terrible Weather for both 4x4 and whale/dolphin watching. - There were no views from the mountain top, due to the abismal weather. Very low cloud and lashing down with rain The 4x4 guide, Ramero, made the best out of a bad weather day and took us to view points much lower down, where there wasn't cloud cover. The whale/dolphin watching experience was unfortunately the same weather wise and we ended up soaked to the skin, due to the rain. Again the guides found the dolphins which helped, but you had to get wet to get any photos.
