Top Madeira Layover Tours

Fredi was a wonderful guide who really wanted everyone to have a great time. I was worried about feeling car sick and the other couples were older so he was good at getting all of us to swap our time spent in the back. If I had any feedback for the company it would be more time at the stops and less time in the car.

We discovered the east and the west in the company of our great guide Liam. He is the best, very kind, a great driver, and he helped us discover treasures; I am leaving with my heart filled with wonderful landscapes. Thank you Liam

Everything you need to know about west Maderia in one trip. Christiano was amazing. Thoughtful. Knowledgeable and welcoming. The places we visited was fantastic. Highly adaptable to what we wanted to see. Excellent language skills. Definitely recommend.

We really enjoyed this private day on this beautiful island and favored a provider that stands out from the usual timed visits of the usual operators. Depending on the areas already seen, we were able to wander towards the north of the island and areas unknown to tourists, social media, and classic guidebooks. Heading then towards a Levada in the morning (about 2 hours 30 minutes of walking round trip) in the middle of lush vegetation, in the cool, and ending at several very beautiful waterfalls. Of course, no one on the trail. Only the sound of nature, birds, and water. Several stops on the way to Santana for some very beautiful panoramas, outside the "miradouros" in the guidebooks, before going to eat at a small restaurant that only the locals know about. Amazing! We were able to visit the last "real" traditional house in Santana, still in its "original state". Very moving, due to the presence of its elderly owner who lived there. It's a nice change from the tourist traps serving as shops at the entrance to the town. After several other stops, at the suggestion of the children, including caves and an urbex, we ended this day which was marked by good humor and the little details and explanations and jokes from Rafa, who speaks 4 and a half languages 😜. Obrigado Rafa!!!! Stef - Celine - Mathis and Baptiste

We did a private tour yesterday around the North of the island. I only really knew of two places I wanted to go. Our tour guide Ryan was excellent. He suggested several other places and kept us informed the entire time. He was lovely and chatting with so much information about Madiera. It was a fantastic day out. Big thanks to Ryan for making our day really enjoyable 😁.

No complaints and highly recommended all day tour of the island. Choose between East or West. We did both in November 2024 and had an excellent time with two other people we shared the Discovery with. The drivers are really friendly and knowledgeable. Loved the local touch of visiting proper Madeira life off the beaten track - everyone was so friendly. Hats off to Cristiano and Nunu our drivers who made it such an enjoyable day.

Good humor and professionalism, with Rafael you will never forget Madeira, it takes you wherever you will have full eyes. Unmissable player when you come to the island.

The 4x4 private jeep tour of north Madeira was an unforgettable experience! Our guide Cristiano was very knowledgeable and friendly, taking us off the beaten track to hidden viewpoints and lush landscapes that we never would have found on our own. The ride was exciting but always felt safe, and the mix of rugged mountain roads, charming villages, and stunning coastal scenery made the day truly special. A fantastic way to see the wilder side of Madeira—highly recommended!

a funny, attentive guide, with whom we toured East of the island away from mass tourism. too nice day between mountains beach tropical and arid landscape Thank you Rafa

We spent a very nice day with Rafael in the northeast of Madeira. The group was very friendly , Rafael is funny, joyful, pleasant , loves his island , francophone (the top for us) . We saw sights with unlikely views 🥰🥰 , rum tasting , a very old typical house in Santana , restaurant offered at the top, and the top of the top the pico de areiro 🥰 Of course if we return to Madeira we will call on him. Thank you again.

Great guided tour of the eastern part of Madeira, with tastings of local products,The Rafael guide at the top, Thank you very much!

Very good day with Rafa. Listen, don't rush the customers, he's taking his time. What a positive! You can contact him with your eyes closed.

Amazing day in the north east of Madeira accompanied by Rafa. Guide of the island that makes you a program with small onions. Keen to discover unusual places, Rafa is really friendly and teaches us a lot. Perfect day

We spent the day with Rafael and had the absolute best time. We saw so much of the island that we would never have been able to see on our own. His personality is everything you would want for a tour guide. We laughed the entire time. He was very knowledgeable and showed us some hidden gems as well. 10 out of 10 would highly recommend.

An amazing experience!!! You can make your own itinerary and the guide may add or recommend some other interesting places.

Very very rich, joyful and warm beautiful course vehicle and driver at the top DE the beaten track the cost DE the service is underestimated considering the quality of the activity you can go there with eyes wide open...!!!!
