Quick intro to Madeira

Published on Oct, 2023

A great 4 hour tour - two spectacular vistas, a taste of local liqueurs and biscuits, a very fun tobaggan ride culminating in a wine tasting. We had a nice driver (Melly) with a god sense of humor best of all no lineup for the tobaggan.

Good tour overall.

Published on Sep, 2023

Our tour guide was very friendly and thorough in explaining things and answering our questions along the way. He was accommodating to our schedule too. The sled ride down the hill from Monte was a lot of fun, and the visit to Nun’s valley was particularly interesting. The Madeira wine tasting was just OK - they didn’t really explain much and seemed to want us to hurry up.

Great experience

To experience Madeira this half-day tour is a good introduction to the island. Our driver was fabulous and very professional. We truly felt like we had an appreciation for the island culture through our guides eyes. We like the personal touch the private tours offer.

Great half day tour

Published on May, 2019

My husband and I did this tour in the afternoon. We were delight in all the sights. The Eire do Serrano presented a beautiful view of the island and all its hidden valleys. Curral das Freitas (Nuns Valley) is a quaint town. Monte is where we went sledding down the mountain road in a wicker sled. So much fun! Then we ended our tour at D’Oliveiras to sample Maderia wine and snack on honey cake.

This turned out to be a private tour...

Published on Jan, 2018

This turned out to be a private tour for just the two of us. Our driver/guide Ruben was very nice, and he did a great job driving us around the island and showing us some very picturesque site of Madeira. We did wine tasting of Madeira wine, visited the Village of the Nuns and took a traditional ride in the baskets down the streets of Funchal. It is a beautiful place to visit, and you need to see it with a local, like Ruben!
