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.
