Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Only giving 1 star because I can't give any less, my partner organised this trip as a surprise for me.

We missed breakfast and paid a taxi to get us to the meeting point 15 mins before pick up, 3/4 of an hour later with no one coming to meet us, it was apparent they weren't coming.

We tried phoning the contact number and emailing but got no reply.

Dont waste youre time booking with these, I'm sure there are many better more professionally ran tour operators in the area

I cut my foot on a rock and it started bleeding and the tour guide didn’t even have a bandaid, let alone a first aid kit. I would hate to think how a serious injury would be handled!

A minor thing, but the tour advertises that water will be provided, and we were all handed a 330ml bottle each. This really isn’t adequate for a 3 hour water sport activity in the hot sun.

Also, we were told that we could put phones in waterproof pouches. I looked over mine and it had a hole in it. The guide gave me at least another 8-9 to look through and they were ALL ripped with holes in them.

The tour guide was slightly standoffish and gave one-word answers to most questions.

Sadly I wouldn’t recommend using this tour guide company.

We tried the buggy tour in Madeira Radical and it was an awful experience. The buggy cars wars old and dirty. The car brock dawn up on the mountain and had mechanical / electrical problems. It was unsafe because of issues with the seatbelts Our tour was damaged and not finished as planed. We did not even get discount or our money back.
I have e-mailed the owner of the company to find out what he was going to do with all these problems we had in our buggy tour, but he didnt bother himself to answer me !!!
DONT DO THE BUGGY TOUR WITH THIS COMPANY. YOU WIL REGRAT IT AND IT IS UNSAFE.

Pedro was our guide and he was excellent. We really enjoyed the kayak out to the bay we snorkelled in. We also really enjoyed the snorkelling. The tour was good value for money and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking to get a good amount of kayaking and snorkelling in.

We did the kayak+snorkelling activity

I enjoyed this activity but I found it really overpriced 70€ for a double kayak and the guide... (70€ was the total price for 2 people). We had also the pick-up at our hotel (in Funchal).

The tour is a straight line from the harbor to the beach (2.8 km). But you can also get to this area just car... Well, when you arrive you have the free time to do snorkeling and they give you the snorkel masks and the tube... but the mask is not great quality so if you have a better one don't hesitate to bring it with you...
They had not a waterproof container so you cannot take the towel with you, and they don't give you neoprene suits. So if you are going on a cloudy day in October, you will not be able to spend the full time snorkelling because it's quite cold outside and you cannot get properly dry...
Also, it was the first time I paid for a snorkelling activity so I was kind of expecting some explanation or orientation about the different species that we could find there... but... hmmm no. It was totally free and we didn't get a lot of information...

Our star moment: we saw a big marine turtle and we were able to swim alongside her. Amazing !

That said, I did enjoy the activity but I found it really overpriced for the service we received. I think they should improve it or reduce the price...
I want to say also that our guide was very kind and he offered to us all that was in his hand.

We did an off-road buggy tour for approx. 3h. It was an amazing experience and definitely worth the money. The tour guide was a friendly man giving us the best experience and adapted his tour according to the wishes of his guests. The tour was amazing and it took us through a lot of hidden places in the mountains and with an amazing view! He really knew the best hotspots to take us to! Of course there was some joy riding as well which we enjoyed a lot! Would definitely recommend wearing old clothes, cause if you’re like us, you’ll get a little dirty during the tour. Would definitely recommend doing this tour if you’re in Funchal or surroundings!

Booked up by chance at the Marina with the very helpful Catarina. The Buggies themselves were in great condition & very modern. My tour guide Marcio was very friendly and knowledgable . Throughout the tour he was patient / extremely helpful and these qualities that he possessed are what ensured they i will be back again. I recommend anybody visiting Madeira to use this service with this company as it’s a great way to see the island.

This was an amazing, amazing experience. Our guide was so patient and knowledgeable, we have no prior experience doing kayaking and he spent time with us making sure we knew what we were doing. Kayak along the coast to a nature reserve where you get out of the kayaks to snorkel. I'm not at all a strong swimmer but again our guide was so patient and helpful. He suggested I can go and explore the ruins since I'm not a strong swimmer and it turned out to be the best part of the tour, he took us around and told us so much about the island and nature reserve. It was so so so cool.

Highly recommended, an experience you will not forget
