5.00We did two guided tours of Madeira covering both the east and west sides with Luis and Ricardo, and they were a real highlight of our trip. Both guides were incredibly knowledgeable, sharing great insights about the island, and were always friendly, happy, and full of energy. They made the experience feel relaxed and enjoyable from start to finish. Highly recommend—fantastic way to see the island

5.00Amazing tour with Ricardo! Half day visiting sites of this beautiful island. We highly recommend this tour. Ricardo spoke perfect English sharing history and facts about the island, he also had great recommendations on where to try local food outside of Funchal. If you have time in the Fisherman village ask Diogo or Ricardo where to eat and have a lunch, try delicious local Seafood.
Lovely child friendly tour of the area.

5.00Diogo gave us a private tour around the island. He made it really kid friendly and gave us child friendly options, while the adults got to look at the fantastic scenery. He was very knowledgeable. His English is amazing. Super friendly.
Experience Madeira as you wish.

5.00Diogo was in contact the day before with pick-up arrangements and was waiting at port. He had suggestions to maximise our visit which gave us time to enjoy the island. He obviously is proud of his heritage and told us about local history and culture. We had a relaxing and very enjoyable time.
A truly great experience of Madeira

5.00From the very beginning, Diogo’s communication was excellent. He was responsive, clear, and made everything easy to arrange, which immediately gave us confidence. He is incredibly proud to showcase the very best sights of Madeira, and his knowledge of the island is truly impressive. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does, and that passion really enhances the experience. Diogo is also very empathetic and attentive. He took wonderful care of my parents and my daughter, always making sure everyone felt comfortable and included. His English is fantastic. I can highly recommend Diogo as a guide — he made our visit to Madeira truly special.
Great tour with Diogo!

5.00Diogo was very great and friendly from start to finish. We travelled with my daughter, and asked if a child seat could be provided and he brought one without any issue. She’s been so gentle and great with her all trip. Took us to beautiful places and told us so much about Madeira’s history. Has such great English well!
