Must-have experience when visiting! - To truly discover the many beautiful sides of the island, a guided tour is highly recommended. While there are many tour operators to choose from, Nature Connection tours makes it so much more than just a drive around the usual scenic sights. Such a pleasant tour. Our guide was so knowledgeable about everything we saw, as well things we would not have spotted ourselves. Loads of interesting historical facts while on the move. The 4x4 choice paid off as it made the trip so much more interesting and fun with literally a drive off the beaten track! To top it all up we got a great tip for a very nice local restaurant to round up a wonderful day of getting to know Madeira with a lovely local food dinner. Thank you, Riccardo for this great experience!

A wonderful day out and about with João - Excellent day spent with João. Amazing landscape and great off-road experience seeing some wonderful parts of Madeira. João was a great driver, who made our day more special due to his care and consideration, friendly personality and great sense of humour. Highly recommend this trip with Nature Connections.

Breathtaking Tour with a Brilliant Guide - Our west Madeira tour with Ricardo was the highlight of our holiday! We travelled from sea level to the peaks, experiencing a variety of landscapes and climates all in one incredible day. Ricardo was friendly, easy to chat with and full of fascinating knowledge about the island. Exploring in an open-top 4x4 made the whole adventure even more exciting. We had an amazing time and would highly recommend it!

Madeira jeep tour - Ricardo was fantastic. Very friendly and knowledgeable. He’s a very good driver on some challenging roads. We hit all the popular spots and more. Was a packed day. Took a little longer than expected but saw a lot (took about 9 hours)

Great off-road tour experience - This was a great experience! Our driver Ricardo was extremely informative, friendly, laid back and skilled behind the wheel. We particularly enjoyed the off-road driving and the ability to get out and look around at various places on the island. I would strongly recommend this to everyone!

Nature Conection tours. - I have been using Nature Conection on three occasions so far and I would recommend them to anyone that I know who is planning a trip to Madeira. I know that on my next trip to Madeira I will book with them again as it is the best way to see the island, Ricardo has been our driver/guide for all three times that I have booked trips has been so informative about everything, if you ask a question Ricardo will know the answer on the history of Madeira, the plant and wildlife and he has a great sense of humour and is incredibly helpful. I have taken the following tours: Madeira West & Northwest. Madeira East & Northeast. And the 4x4 Tours and wine tasting experience. Every tour has been superb from start to finish and exceptional value for money.
