★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 819 reviews · 7 hours (approx.) · from $74

Review of Madeira’s east coast jeep safari, with Pico do Arieiro, Santana, levada walking, rum tasting, and practical booking tips.

“Ernesto was an amazing tour guide and great driver. Didn't feel rushed or stressed. This tour has a levada walk that will take approximately 45min and you need to pay 3 euros. The guide suggested a lovely restaurant to eat and it was great. Only downside for me is the jeep itself, not very comfortable, bear in mind the roof will remain opened the entire time, so if you seat in the back get ready for sun and lots of wind...having the rooftop opened also meant a lot of noise from the road and tunnels.”

Review of Madeira’s half-day jeep tour to Boca dos Namorados, Cabo Girão, local bars and free Madeira wine tasting.

“It was such a fun experience! Our guide, Gil Sousa went out of his way to make it worthwhile. Told us so much information and fun facts about the island. Drove around beautiful spots and to get there it was quite an adventurous drive, but we felt very safe with Gil Sousa as our driver ;). Stopped in the middle of the tour to let us smell the Eucalyptus trees when we went through the forest, picked some fresh parsley growing casually besides the road, had one of the best Poncha's that were made right in front of us. Overall, great tour and definitely recommend.”

“Memorable Porto Santo 4x4 Tour with Bernard The Porto Santo Island Highlights 4x4 Tour, led by Bernard from Bravelanders, was an outstanding experience. Bernard’s deep knowledge of the island’s geology, botany, and history made the tour both educational and enjoyable. From hotel pickup, Bernard’s professionalism and friendly approach ensured a safe and comfortable journey across the island’s diverse landscapes. His commentary on local traditions, rare plants, and geological features enriched every stop. A delicious lunch at Rafaela Casa de Chá & Tini Restaurant added to the day’s enjoyment. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a comprehensive and engaging introduction to Porto Santo.”

Review of Madeira’s west coast 4x4 tour from Funchal, with Fanal Forest, Seixal, Porto Moniz pools, off-road tracks, and poncha.

“I honestly couldn’t fault any of the experience. We were contacted the evening before confirming the time of pick up at our hotel and he arrived exactly on time. The guide was fab, great sense of humour and very knowledgable on our journey. We stopped at many places along the way to see the sights and take photos, and given ample time. We had a great little pit stop to watch a lady make Poncha and got to try it which was fab and soooo much nicer than the bottles stuff we got elsewhere. When we stopped at Porto moniz the guide before heading off to take some time out…”
