The East Coast Madeira tour - Just did the trip today and can only say it was fantastic! Our driver/tour guide Dino was amazing, knowledgeable, courteous, punctual, fun and such a safe and caring driver. His wealth of historical, geographical and geological facts were so insightful and interesting. Never short of conversations and patience with two Irish chatters!! It was my husband and myself's first time on this wonderful island, and most definitely not our last. We will only book with your company again, and have already passed on the recommendations to friends travelling here shortly. Keep up your much appreciated good work, and blessings to all involved!

Madeira West - A Different World - We stayed in the old part of town where vehicles are not allowed, but the company did a great job of managing the issue and arranging a convenient pick-up. The guide, Dino, was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic. His philosophy was that he wanted to do what ever was possible to address our needs and questions and to make sure that our enjoyment was his top priority. We had already been on a tour of the Western side of the island and we assumed that the tours would be fairly redundant. We were wrong. The two sides of the islands might as well be from different planets. Both were rugged, but very distinctive. It was a very enjoyable and informative day which we enjoyed very much.

Beautiful Eastern Madeira - We had a fabulous tour of the eastern part of Madeira, two adults and two kids, 10 and 8 years old. We had a minibus to ourselves and our guide and driver Dino did an outstanding job.

Fabulous Tour and Great Guide - A fantastic day. Dino was such a great guide and was so informative about the island, it's flora and fauna. He took us to so many places of interest. We went inside an authentic Madeiran house and met the owner who gave us a liquor. We were above the clouds and down in valleys. We had lunch in a small restaurant that Dino had booked before heading to the rum factory. It was a small group, just four of us which made it even more special. If we go back to Madeira again I will be booking Dino for the West Tour. He is a fantastic guide and very witty, lots of laughs. Great memories. Thank you

Excellent guided day tour - The whole day was informative, entertaining and enjoyable. Dino, our driver/guide, was full of stories and information. He pointed out everything as we went along. He guided us to a superb little restaurant for lunch, guided us through the rum producer, kept us perfectly ahead of any other groups when he knew of popular places. 100% recommend him and this company for a small group trip around Madeira ( just 4 persons on a small mini bus for our trips.
