It was my first booking on Get yor Guide! I am very very satisfied! Everything worked smoothly from the booking to the transport back to the location! It was a very nice tour that I recommend to everyone! A very special thank you goes to our tour guide Luzi! As a small tour group of 6 people, we learned so much about the country and its people and it was so much fun with her that our hearts pounded with happiness! I wish you and your team all the best, especially health! Heike - 11/22/22

The tour was great and we saw a lot for relatively short time. If you don't want to take a rental car, it is a good alternative to see more of the island. Sergio was a great guide, told a lot of interesting facts and had a sense of humor. Highly recommended!

Diego was a great guide, I really like that the group was small -6 people and everything was very well planned. Great way to see the west side of the island!

We had Carlos as our guide and he was super friendly, cheerful and knowledgeable about Madeira. Would recommend!
