• 5Great East Side Tour

  This was an excellent tour. It took us to the highlights of the East Side of Madeira Island. Our tour guide, Alex, was absolutely amazing, very kind and knowledgeable. I felt very safe driving with Alex. He took very good care of us and made sure we had a great time. He navigated the narrow mountain roads with precision and expertise.I would highly recommend this tour as well as Alex as a tour guide.

• 5Excellent value tour of key sights of east Madeira

  Excellent tour in a comfortable air conditioned minibus of various key points of interest to the east and also slightly north with an experienced and very friendly driver who gave us ample enough time per stop to see the sights and didn't rush you. A nice 3 course lunch with wine/water/coffee was arranged via the driver in Santana at 22 euros each you wished. Drove high up into the mountains including to Ribeira de Frio and to Pico Arieiro. Very highly recommended tour with convenient hotel entrance pick up and option to delay payment to 2 days before if you need, or even cancel should you change your mind.

• 44x4 surprise

  We were not told the trip was full and a substitute was sent! Felipe though was brilliant! We had a 4x4 and we went places I never imagined were possible! The views were amazing even if my height anxiety got me at points. A beautiful day out with Trailblazers even if it wasn’t what we had booked.
