5.00What a perfect memorable day. Picked up at our hotel and we were the only ones in the jeep. Miguel knows the island so well that we missed the crowds and went around the amazing steep hills and lanes that are out of bounds for buses and vans. He shared so much knowledge and interesting stories. So many highlights of the day. This was a great adventure, amazing value for money and i cant recommend this highly enough. There were lots of 4x4 tours at the main stops, but we didnt see any others on the breathtaking routes we took. If you book and you get Miguel, you will have an unforgettable day.
I can’t recommend this tour enough, as a group of friends who hates big group tour, this was perfect, personal and fun!

5.00This was a brilliant day! The tour guide Miguel was absolutely fantastic. He taught us about the island, explained as we went on and we really had a laugh with him. We also stopped at so many places and it was so fun This is perfect if you’d like to do a tour but not in a big group of randomers. I’d 100% recommend.

5.00My girlfriend and I had an incredible tour of the western part of Madeira with Miguel. We were lucky enough to be the only guests, which turned the day into a fantastic private experience. Miguel is not just a knowledgeable guide but also a great person to talk to. We chatted about everything – from the island's history to general life topics – making the time between stops fly by. He was incredibly flexible, offering us alternative stops based on our interests and giving us plenty of time at every location without rushing. Plus, his insider tips for other activities on the island were super helpful. If you want a relaxed, personalized, and memorable tour, book with Miguel!

5.00We had a great day out with Miguel. He is very knowledgeable and told us lots of new facts about the island. We loved all of the stops, especially the swimming at Porto Moniz. The vehicle is comfortable and he is a great driver taking us off road and down narrow paths to make it extra fun. We will definitely book with Miguel if we go back to Madeira - highly recommend.
Wonderful
