A trip made memorable and close to the heart, - Hit the road is an excellent company if you want reliability and a true personalized experience. My husband and I chose the private full day tour for 3 days which allowed for flexibility due to weather changes and opportunities to visit any side of the island thoroughly. Our tour was completely customized to fit our desires, such as sightseeing along the coasts as well as high elevations to include a sunrise tour and a Lovada walk to say the least. Fabio was our main guide who is highly knowledgeable about the island and was very talented at knowing what our abilities and interests were. If you wanted exciting and challenging, he delivered! Fabio was near our side to help with any language barriers, but yet knew when to give my husband and I private time. He showed us local places to have our favorite food and poncho’s, of course! Quero mais tosta mista e espetada de carne. Obrigada pela sua ajuda e continue à procura de trutas, Fábio. Mantenha a sua personalidade amigável e excitante!

Best day in Madira! - We had an amazing day with Hugo in Madeira! He knew all the great spots and when they were not so busy. We got to see so much more of the island just because he knew it so well. We avoided most of the other tourists in rental cars and traffic. Felt like we had island mostly to oursevles.....We would have never been able to navigate on our own in the same way. The views and the island are just spectacular. I highly recommend these people when visiting Madira and ask for Hugo, he's great!!

Amazing day, highly recommended - It was an amazing day, from the initial contact with Emilio and our driver Fabio was excellent. They are very flexible with locations and the stop offs for food and drinks were great and very reasonably priced. Thank you

Fantastic driver and his trusty Jeep! - WOW! What a day we had with the wonderful Fabio from Hit the Road Tours! Both Fabio and his treasured Jeep gave us the best day exploring the East of Madeira on our private tour - as a multi-gen family he catered to our needs perfectly with a mixture of beautiful gardens and viewpoints, fun drives on narrow roads and even rum and Poncha tasting! As a travel agent, I will 100% be recommending my clients book with Hit the Road for their Madeira tours!

Great time, great people, great tour. You NEED to book a tour with these folks if you are going to Madeira. - The tour was amazing. We did a full day tour with Vitor on the north and south central portions of the island and had a blast. The views were incredible and Vitor taught us so much about Madeira, the history, culture and people. We stopped at a great place for lunch with literally priceless views of the ocean from a cliff. Of course, you have to finish the tour with poncha! The next day our plans got messed up with a different activity, so we reached back out to hittheroadmadeira. We explained our situation to Jeff and Emilio- just seeing if they had any immediate openings for a half day tour. They were so nice and were able to put a half day tour for us on the west side. Hugo was our driver that day and he was also amazing. Again, the views, the views, the views. Hugo also told us many stories about the island’s history and his experiences. This island is incredible and we feel fortunate to have seen as much as we did. Save yourself the aggravation of trying to drive to these places on your own. Pay the professionals to get you around the island to the places you want to see, and to places you didn’t know that you wanted to see, but are more beautiful than the ones you did. No joke, if you do not know the island, there is no way you see as much as we did in roughly 12 hours on your own. It is worth the money, promise. Thanks Vitor, Hugo, Jeff, and Emilio! Thank you all for an amazing time!

Fantastic experience - Wilson, our driver, was friendly, funny, flexible and fantastic with the kids. He drove well, we felt safe even when roads were tricky. We had a lovely experience, it was like visiting Madeira with an old friend. The places we visited were breathtakingly beautiful. It’s really worth it.
