Great trip recently with Mike. He was very knowledgeable and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. A great way to see and find out more about Porto Santo. Very glad we swoon the tour.

Sadly we did not get to experience this trip due to a big misunderstanding. It was booked from a Viator ad which appeared to be related to San Sebastián. As we are from the US we did not understand the geography of northern Spain The day before travel it became clear that we were far far away from an enticing experience. My mistake but Viator not helpful and I have booked many tours with them. Not the tour providers fault Diane

Fantastic tour of the island, learning about more than just pirates and corsairs. Took us from one end to the other to see some spectacular views and history. Nuno the guide was brilliant, very knowledgeable and good fun. We took our 4 and 7 year old kids and they managed to keep entertained the whole way so must be good! Thank you Nuno and thank you Porto Santo!

Great experience. We stayed at the island for 2 nights and enjoyed the golden beach. The last day was a Friday and our ferry was at 10:30 pm. We had several hours to kill after checking out from the hotel at 14:30 pm, so we had a tour from 3:00 pm. to 6:00 pm. The tour itself was great and we enjoyed places that are difficult to reach without renting a car and listened to great stories. At 18.00 pm. the guide/driver dropped us at the cafe near the terminal to the ferry, as we wished. He volunteered to call the cafe in advance to confirm that they would prepare dinner for us there. We ordered drinks there while waiting for the kitchen to open (at 19.30 pm). When we finally started to enjoy our dinner, the tour guide showed up again at the cafe with his one-year-old son, just to make sure that everything went well. What a nice surprise! Saved my day!

Who knew that Porto Santo has so much more to offer than its long golden beach? (Or for that matter that the golden sands are in fact made up of shells and microfossils carried in on the wind?). On this tour of Porto Santo, Nuno showed us highlights of the island, including great view points. Learnt a lot about the geology of the island, its history (including tbe pirate raids), daily rural life and tips for good restaurants (and much more). An excellent and enjoyable tour I can recommend!

Great tour around the island. Nice to know more about what makes this island unique, and to find a little bit more about the importance of Porto Santo in the Portuguese history.
