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.

Go off-road! - Gil is a friendly and enthusiastic guide who takes the time to show you nature. The best part was the off-road standing up in the back of the Land Rover! But also the views are spectacular. Totally recommend.

Great adventure in Madeira - This was a great tour in Madeira leaving us completely satisfied - all our expectations were more than fulfilled. We appreciated the individual tour-management. Surely Ruben was a great guide - well informed and very sensitive to our interests - all in all it was a spectacular gorgeous very individual shaped trip! Next time when we are in Madeira we’re gonna choose this private jeep tour again and highly recommend it to everyone who wants to see more than just the average stuff. coronawise everything was perfectly organized, clean, equipped with hand-sanitizers and masks.
