Review of a West Madeira day trip from Funchal, with Fanal Forest, Cabo Girão, Porto Moniz pools, coastal villages, and practical tips.
“Tony led an incredible day trip. He was so knowledgeable and kind! The day was long but I can’t imagine doing anything close to that on purpose own. It was a great value and a day well spent touring this beautiful island.”
Explore Madeira’s wild north coast, mountain valleys, vineyards, and São Vicente on an 8-hour guided trip from Funchal.
“Très bonne expérience, avec un guide super intéressant qui nous a appris beaucoup de choses et notamment sur la flore de Madère. Le circuit sort des zones touristiques, et permet de découvrir une partie de l’île plus sauvage et authentique. La route est magnifique également, je recommande !”
Review of Madeira’s Santo da Serra market tour, with Sunday shopping, 4x4 tracks, mountain views, guide tips, seating advice, and value details.
“My favourite part was the market. The authentic food offerings at the market were amazing. Some people there don’t speak English, so communication barriers made pricing difficult at times. Very relaxed atmosphere. Our guide told us we had 45 minutes, but we exceeded that and it wasn’t a problem. Some vendors only take cash so be ready for that. We were not prepared for that. The part I didn’t really like was the 4 x 4 vehicle. The only spot that was comfortable was the row of three. The backseats had very limited visibility for the sites. There were times where it was safe to stand up, but not always.…”
Review of Madeira’s Northeast 4x4 day trip from Funchal, with Santana houses, villages, rum distillery visits, views, and practical tips.
“This is a great way to see so many different parts of this beautiful island. Didn't feel rushed and saw so much.”
