Wonderful route with a comfortable car, a very friendly guide and mesmerising panoramic views. Absolutely perfect! - The tour was amazing. We enjoyed it a lot, because the guide was well prepared and the scenery was wonderful. Our guide gave us enough time to explore and told us a lot about the island. It was really worth it. An experience we will never forget!

4x4 by Madeira - Excellent option for those who want to escape from urban stress and take refuge in nature. We made a 4x4 tour with the 101 Routes and our host António showed the places we would never visit without your help. Thanks for the experience, we will be back soon!

The perfect tour! - Antonio was the perfect tour guide! Very knowledgeable, every question I asked he had the answer for! Fantastic experience and we got to see so much of Madeira that we wouldn't have seen otherwise. Highly recommend this tour, and also very reasonably priced! 10 out of 10

Magnificent Tour of Madeira with Antonio - We could not wish for a better guide for our Tour of Western Madeira. On board the Land Rover of Antonio, an experienced driver, we were lucky enough to visit, in addition to the most characteristic places such as the Fanal Forest and the swimming pools of Porto Moniz, also points of the island unknown to mass tourism, but not to be missed! In addition, the Tour was organized in such a way as to reach every place at times with less crowds. Antonio is a very wise person and told us countless curiosities about the island, its history and the peculiarities of each place we reached. It was a magnificent day, I recommend this experience to anyone, especially Italians like us, since he is one of the few local guides to speak Italian as well. Grazie Antonio, alla prossima!

Great day of discovery. - Excellent full day tour of the North and East of the island with Antonio. On time pick up in a Range Rover 4 x 4. The ride to the top of the island up very steep roads and over farm tracks gave spectacular views on a really lovely day. Antonio has very good knowledge of the island including the history, geology and lots of information about life on the island. We had a ‘coffee’ break at a small out of the way bar where we had a well made Poncha drink - I was glad that I wasn’t driving after that. All in all our day was really worth while including a very tasty lunch on the north side of the island at Quinta do Furão restaurant in Santana which has the most spectacular views.

See the West at his Best with 101 tours ! - If you want to see the real “wild” west of Madeira; book with 101 tours! Antonio is an experienced driver who guided us safely with his jeep over beautiful, authentic and deserted back roads and showed us a lot of pure nature. We had enough time to walk around, swim at Porto Moniz, have lunch in a cozy restaurant and climb to a breathtaking viewpoint, without mass tourism! So forget Cabo Girao and book with Antonio !
