Great Day Out
Great day out and a wonderful way to see more of the island. Tony Gonçalves our guide was sn excellent driver and had great knowledge of Madeira, past and present. It really made a difference being collected and dropped off at our hotel. Good sized group too, our fellow travellers were lovely people. I would recommend for all - couples, groups and solo travellers. Highlight for us were the Porto Moniz natural pools.

Fantastic Surfing Experience
We had an absolutely fantastic time surfing! The whole experience was so much fun, and our coach was amazing. He really took the time to pay attention to each and every one of us, making sure everyone felt comfortable, supported, and had a great experience.The group was the perfect size, which made the atmosphere relaxed and personal. Even with no previous surfing experience, we were able to make real progress and celebrate some great successes on the board!We can wholeheartedly recommend this experience to everyone. An unforgettable time with a great coach and a wonderful atmosphere. We’d definitely do it again!

The guys worked hard to make sure we saw some Marine Wildlife, we have been before and saw whales previously. This time we saw a pod of nearly 70 Spotted Dolphins. The guys give an explanation and background of what you have seen on the return journey. A nice relaxed and friendly tour again.

Whale and Dolphin Watching Tour in Madeira

One of the best experiences
We’ve been to Madeira 4 times, and this was truly one of our favorite experiences. What a beautiful way to view the island from another angle, and at the same time see some wildlife. From start to finish we are so happy with this experience, everyone on the team were so kind and helpful. Everything was thoroughly explained and the boat was beautiful. We thought this will be a one time experience, but we already can’t wait to book again when we are back! Thank you!

Brilliant experience and great value for money.
Brilliant experience at good value for money. Our guide Tiago was obviously very proud of his island and enthusiastic to show us. We saw parts of the island we would never have reached with lots of local knowledge about the flora, fauna and geography. A short Levada walk, leisurely lunch and visit to the rum distillery were all part of the day.

One of the best tours of Madeira. Don’t miss it!
The most inclusive two day tour around beautiful Madeira was everything I wanted to see of the entire island. Very informed tour guides with a passion for their island, allowed us to see the key attractions you would often find it difficult to get to on your own. I highly recommend booking, you will not regret.
