Had an amazing day with Miguel (tattoo) on the full day east tour. He gives a lot of information and gives a fun twist on everything. The tour was everything we expected and more! He made sure we have seen everything, and we had so much fun (he is a funny guy). Overall an amazing experience and would totally book it again!!

We took full day tour to North West of Madeira with 6 friends, it was incredible experience and definitely a highlight of our trip. The views were stunning and we saw so many different things in one day. My favorite was the beach with volcanic black sand. Our tour guide Jose was caring, funny and made us very comfortable! Thank you Jose, we will be back 🙏🏼

I stayed in February for a week in Madeira. During this week the weather was unfortunately not so ideal. I booked two different tours with Green Devil Safari that offer different half days and full day tours. I booked the Enchanted Terraces as well as the Scents & Flavours tour. On both tours Nelson was our driver and guide. It was fun as he is a fun person that likes to joke and knows his island by heart. He is knowledgeable in the nature and landscape and likes to share his knowledge. The tour is definitely to recommend. Despite the weather, I spent two great days getting to know the island a bit. Thanks to Nelson.

We did 2 different tours with this company. The first one was the Enchanted terraces and we were lucky enough to have Val as our guide. Knowledgeable, funny, having a good pace throughout the trip. The off-road part was so much fun! The second tour was the northeast - scents and flavours - tour and we were not that lucky. We had booked an English speaking tour but our guide was a guy from Venezuela (can't remember his name) who hardly spoke basic English. He was a good driver but it was very hard to understand him, he didn't give us any valuable information regarding the visited places and the island in general. He also wasn't able to answer basic questions that we asked him.

I went with my mom. It was a fantastic tour! We got to see a lot in a day. My friends were blown away by all the amazing things I got to see. It was such an adventure. I had Greg as my guide and he was fantastic. Really knew a lot about the history, the birds, etc. He was also very accommodating and super patient. Him and his wife are hilarious together. Overall, we saw a lot of Madeira and I was mesmerized by the beauty of it all. It was totally worth the money - if anything, this was the highlight of my trip. I’m also happy they are supporting local businesses and not taking commission from the businesses they take us to - so you know the food, drinks, whatever it is, are all amazing! One thing I do want to mention, part of the ride is safari and so expect a bumpy ride. I was fine with it but I could see how it could cause some sickness. So heads up.

The green devil brought us on places we could not reach ourselfes. With humor hospitality and enthousasm the driver Nelson showed us many flowers and beauifull places far from the tourist attractions. He showed us the real nature of madeira. The green devil contributed to make our holiday a succes. Obrigada Nelson.

We had a whole day tour, just the 2 of us. We learned a bit more about Madeira as this wasn’t our first time. Our guide showed us places in addition that were not tourist oriented. We explored the island from another perspective thanks to our guide who was really polite and welcoming. Thank you for a great day!

We booked full day tour with the Green DEvil Safari tour with the 4x4 defender jeep. It was simply amazing as we did the route, which normal car could not drive through or discovered. Hugo, the Guide/Driver is an experienced Guide has the abilities to tell the story of flora and fauna, indepth back ground of Madeira and he drives excellent as well. As a whole this was beyond expectation adventure safari, it is worth for the value of money you given for. I give him 5 Stars for this. Excellent Tour

Hi Guys What can I say, yet another great experience, not just the trips but the people you attract. I spent a day with a 30ish German guy who was employed by the German Government to talk to kids in school about their future career, look out uk, the Brexit challenge. Then next trip out, met an economist from Chile, employed by a private university in Chile to do research, and was in Lisbon and on a weekend away. On both occasions at the age of 66 I had lunch and discussed the world around us (they were both under the age of 30) and as a bonus I saw all the island with guides who were so knowledgeable about the island. The other group were an Americam family, sisters I think, one couple owned a zoo, didn't want them to feel left out, great people. Fernandos, I'll send you some light bulbs if you woud let me know the part numbers! God willing I will be back in 2019, amd I look forward to seeing you all Can you send me the photos you said you would?

If you have the opportunity to visit Funchal, Madiera this is a must! Nuno is am absolute professional who knows his island and also knows how to have fun! We were 3 adults and 2 teens. Once we got up into the mountains and off road, the roof was peeled back and the kids stood up. There were more screams of laughter and pure joy from them! The sights are breathtaking, our guide Nuno was a total pleasure. We are going to look at coming back for an extended vacation to see more!!
