We’ll be back! - We Loved it! My husband and I saved this excursion for our last day in Madeira. We had spent most of our time in Funchal and being able to go up into the mountains and explore all the other pockets of this incredible island were breathtaking. We shared a jeep with a family from Spain, so kind and our guide was informative and a passionate local, you could really feel his pride for this island. Beautiful! I used to live in San Francisco and those hills are nothing compared to Madeira, had a blast going up and down. We stopped at several places to take photos and relish in the views. My favorite was the valley of the nuns, sounds like the best band name. The story behind them was inspiring to hear. Also you get to try the Portugal drink Pancha, it’s one of a kind, and Nikita, like a passionfruit creamsicle with ice cream, Bar Mario had the best! If you’re in Madeira for a week or a couple days, I highly recommend! Also they pick you up and drop you off at your hotel! 5 stars! Thank you! We will be back! Nicholas & Workman

If in Madeira go on a 4x4 tour - We took the 4x4 tour with couple of friends. We had a great time touring the island. Stop several times to get out for pictures. We were unaware of Madeira being mountainous we climbed about 3500 feet. The roads are extremely steep. We were told they are up to 27degrees. We stopped at a little store and had poncha. They made a patch for the 4 of us. Best poncha we had on the island. We then stopped at Cabo girao a glass floored lookout about 1000 feet off the ocean

4x4 Offroad Madeira - Well organized trip. We had Gil as our driver. He told us in English (at a leisurely pace) a lot of details about the island. Also with a good dose of humor. Especially the bit off-road was spectacular. All in all a successful excursion. Hats off to the boys at Discovery Island Madeira.
