Great communication before the tour to arrange sites to see that we preferred. Bring cash for some of the stops as they only take cash, like Monte Toboggan and the cable cars.
Excellent driver and guide, we certainly recommend Diogo for all travellers visiting lovely Madeira..

Diogo gave us an excellent tour despite the weather - we experienced sunshine, wind and rain showers. He was friendly and informative and made our visit to beautiful Madeira more interesting with his knowledge of the island.
Great half day tour!

Amazing half day tour with Deigo's brother. We had our 2 year old with us. Provided us with a car seat. No problem adjusting schedule to our daughters needs. Highly reccommend for couples or families! They love their country and the tour shows this! Very personalised and will reccommend to others.
Excellent half day tour

Diogo is wonderful. We learned a ton about life on Madeira during our half day tour, most of which we would have missed if we were exploring on our own. We recommend him without hesitation.
Highly recommended bespoke tour

Fabulous bespoke tour of the island. Ricardo was a brilliant and knowledgeable host who checked our trip preferences before we left. Picked up from our hotel and dropped back after we stopped and had a lovely lunch at our last destination. Highly recommended. Ricardo and his brother Diogo made sure our trip was really good, excellent customer service communication, and attention to detail.
