Madeira west tour porto muniz/ final forest

Published on Dec, 2024

Comfortable vehicle with small group english speaking knowlegeble guide. Pickup and drop off from hotel. Reasonable Price. Small suggestion, they should add sexial beach instead of few stops at small villages

Amazing day

Published on Dec, 2024

We had a fabulous day - 27.12.24 Our guide was really pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable and the West side of the island is lovely. The weather was really good and we liked all the stops but the highlight for me was the fanal forest - still misty despite it being a lovely sunny day. Thank you to our guide and to the other people who traveled with us.

West tour experience

Published on Nov, 2024

Very easy booking system and kept up to date with times for leaving. Fanal forest was highly unusual but a great place to see. Porto Moniz pools were spectacular as waves were massive. Guide was excellent and spoke along the route about points of interest.

Fabulous day trip

Published on Nov, 2024

We were collected from where we were staying and had a great day. The trip was small and frequent stops with lots of information along the way. Our driver, Christian, was helpful and informative and thoroughly recommend
