Fantastic day out with Christophe. He provided a perfectly tailored experience which surpassed our expectations. Some exhilarating off road 4x4. Waterfalls, pre historic landscapes above the clouds, spectacular views. Swimming in volcanic pools. Perfect Poncha! Couldn’t have asked for more

What an incredible day! We loved everything about the tour. Christophe was a fantastic guide who shared so many interesting facts throughout the day. All of the stops were beautiful and we especially enjoyed the off-road part of the tour. We cannot recommend this enough!!

Best day ever. Christopher our guide for the day was wonderful. He knew all of the special spots for us to view on this beautiful Island. Full day tour and it went fast. He moved through the streets and back roads with precision. We stood up in Landrover riding up the mountain ridge 5000 feet up. Truely once in life time experience!

Terrific way to see more of Funchal and the different microclimates as you climb to higher altitudes. Despite a rainy and cloudy day, our driver Christophe still made it a very enjoyable experience. His knowledge, and humour, makes this a must-do trip.

We toured the west and east of Madeira over 2 days with Christophe seeing the best of the island while having great fun along the way! Christophe communicates well, gives you plenty of information, brings you to places off the beaten track and adds his own humor to add to the adventure. Would definitely recommend hiring Christophe to tour Madeira!

Our guide Christophe was passionate and knowledgeable about every aspect of the island. We enjoyed the small group of 3 experience seeing key spots along the north and south. The jeep was comfortable and a great way to view the surrounding landscape. We learned so much and had so much fun! Muito obrigada!

We had a great and rich tour of western Madeira with Christophe, our dedicated and knowledgeable driver and guide. We also booked him for a separate tour on the east side where he arranged the trip completely according to our wishes! He gives the little extra that makes the tours memorable. Recommended on the warmest!
