Fantastic fun with Rui S.! From the first moment of introduction to final farewells, Rui made it his mission to deliver the most amazing views, exciting adventures, photo opportunities and culinary experience on our port excursion. He enhanced every experience with his enthusiasm, pride of homeland and contagious sense of adventure. He provided exemplary guest service and personally ensured we optimized every moment of breath taking beauty and fun. He is simply the best! I especially appreciated the magical moment at the end of this unforgettable day. I highly recommend this tour for all ages and abilities - we 70 + year olds had a blast! Thanks Rui and Madeira!

Saw two sperm whales. Dolphins. And pilot whales! Excellent! The guys were knowledgeable and friendly.

We went on two half day and one full day trips. All three were great and show a lot more of the island as the jeeps can go on the old roads and off road. Off road is great fun. The views are amazing. The driver/guides are very good and explain a great deal about the places, the history and the plants. We had a different guide for each trip and all three ( Ruben, Diogo and Robert) were excellent, friendly and helpful.

We went in November after seeing all the great reviews and we weren’t disappointed! We had a brilliant day and Francisco was a great guide. The volcanic pools at Porto Moniz were closed due to the rough sea but that just meant we had spectacular waves crashing over rocks at our stops on the north coast and we got the chance to swim in the sea at Praia do Seixal. Loved the off road section and we had a good lunch too! Only negative was not being able to hear the commentary from the back left of the open top jeep when we were on the main roads but overall a great day!

What an amazing day and we highly recommend if you want to see the beautiful island of Madeira and find out about its history and culture. Our guide Guille was truly wonderful - thank you for your knowledge, driving skills and love for the island! Such a fun day out that we will never forget. Thanks again.

This trip was just truly AMAZING!! I’ll start with off by praising our guide Luis- totally awesome. No words can describe how passionate Luis was as he shared facts and a wealth of information about this fabulous island. He was a real gentleman and shared interesting information throughout the whole tour and took great care of his passengers from start to finish! A careful driver at all times which made us feel at ease. We were a family of 4 and had a lovely couple who joined us for the day in the Land Rover Discovery 4x4. We had so much fun with Luis! Quite a character! He made the trip super special for us! All stops were just breathtaking! The views from the skywalk, the waterfalls, Seixal beach views, mountain views, swimming in Porto Moniz and the superb drive through the clouds to the highest point. Loads of fabulous stops! The off road experience was so much fun! Plenty of giggles and a good adrenalin rush! We saw beautiful trees and plants as well as massive cows on the roads! We also had the best authentic experience in a quirky traditional restaurant in the middle of nowhere. Perfect choice of venue to experience true Madeiran cuisine. Delicious chicken skewers, bola de caco (garlic bread) and a cold rosé- perfect!! The drive back down towards Funchal was also so relaxing and we felt that we kept on seeing more and interesting places. Had a beautiful stop in Porto de Sol, a gorgeous colourful beach village where we were fortunate enough to see individuals jumping into the sea off a very high bridge. We will be returning back to Funchal next year and will definitely be going on another adventure with True Spirit. Really well organised trip. We were travelling with another group in a Defender. They also had a fantastic guide called Franciso- Luis and him worked really well together and complimented each other really well. Thanks for a wonderful day experience. We’ll be back for more next Summer😊

Fantastic day. Guide Gil was great, very informative, so much to tell us about Madeira’s history and it’s trees fruit and veg. great driver up short cuts and off road. Amazing views! My knees are painful and he was so kind in helping me in and out of the jeep. Mary Roe

We had a fantastic day with Mauricio and two other couples. He took us to sites we wouldn’t have seen by bus. The off-road experience was amazing! Our lunch and pincha drinks were delicious (extra cost). We got to see various microclimates around the island. We weren’t rushed at all and covered lots of territory. If you have one trip when visiting, this is it!
