Couldn't recommend this trip more. Had the best time with Val! He not only brought us to the wineries but also a bunch of great sight seeing spots. He was kind and informative even after our day trip. A must do in Madeira! Thank you Val :)

Katja_L

We really enjoyed the tour with Val. He's kind of a wikipedia of Madeira! We learned so much and we we're wondering if there is anything Val do not know. It was a great time and the whole day was so much fun! He showed us so many places, we never would visited ourself and furthermore gives us tips for the next days. We highly recommend this tour!

Elisabeth B

This was the highlight of our visit to Madeira. Aside from the beautiful scenery, Val made the experience truly unique - he’s very knowledgeable about the history of the island, as well as nature and the diverse landscapes. We were able to take backroads away from the main tourist areas and see places that we likely would not have found on our own.

We really enjoyed this tour with Val! He is a great guy to spend a day exploring Madeira with. Nothing was rushed and we were taken to places that only a local would know how to find. Thanks for an awesome day Val, we are looking forward to what you have in store for the next adventure!

Jane_S

We had an exciting and colorful ride with Val. He took us in his open air jeep which allowed us to feel immersed in the beautiful environment. He was extremely accommodating to a last minute change in our circumstances. He was very knowledgeable about Madeira wine production and loves his island home. He found out of the way places to show us. I couldn’t give him a stronger recommendation.

Amazing tour guide! Despite poor weather we had such a lovely time and he even went so far as to provide suggestions for the days ahead. Made the most of not ideal conditions and really went above and beyond!

Timothy_H

Val was an excellent tour guide and host. Our day was filled with conversation on the history and heritage of the region. We also were treated to out-of-the way wineries in north and central Madeira. He also made sure that we experienced Madeira wine and Poncha. He was very accommodating in our day, allowing us to explore small trails, beaches and shore lines. It was the best way to experience most of the island in a day. Thanks Val!

carollower

We enjoyed a fantastic, memorable day with Val who adapted the trip to include not just excellent wine tasting but other experiences we wanted to incorporate as well. We walked along a levada, went to a lovely non touristy beach and saw some stunning scenery. Val was great with communication, punctual and gave us some recommendations post tour which we followed up on during our remaining time on the island. We loved Madeira and our trip with Val was the highlight especially driving off road and a delicious Poncha at a lovely authentic bar at he end. Thanks Val - we recommend you 100% and will be in touch when we return !

Ken_C

It was a full day with Val, our host, sharing useful information on the Island’s history in a very engaging way. We were never rushed and enjoyed the wine tasting, swimming and drive around the island.

Joseph_H

What a fantastic day! Valdemar’s passion for his homeland is evident in every part of the tour. His knowledge of the history, geology, gastronomy and culture of the island is stunning - and his language skills (French, German, Spanish and English) are more than impressive! So thankful for the opportunity to spend the day learning - and enjoying - so much!
