Private Tours

when you book a tour with Always Madeira 4x4 you guarantee a tour away from the crowds! Some highlights as Cabo Girão (skywalk), Porto Moniz rock pools, or Seixal the black sand beach can be a little busy depending on the time we get there but during the tour we chose alternative routes like this one, through remote places to enjoy the real Madeira and you get to know the Island like a local.

Leaving Funchal we start this 5 hours customized shore excursion tour. Our customers were on Sun Princess (cruise ship) and being the first time on the Island they would like to explore some Laurissilva Forest - UNESCO World Heritage Then we drove to the northeast and explored this fantastic off-road and the customers had the courage to cross this tunnel with a water channel (Levada) as many of our ancestors used in some areas as a shortcut to pass from on side of the mountain to the other and they loved it.

We always give the option to do or not to do off-road

Safaris here in Madeira is not to see wild animals often associated with safaris in Africa or a full day with off-road but we do some during our tours. Safari means passing through places/roads where it is not possible with normal vehicles (rental cars), minibus or bus. In recent years we have been adapting our tours to the development of many rural areas or even to what our customers are looking for and usually is just a tour away from the crowds and a different way to explore Madeira.

Summer is over.

We can say that we have good weather all year round because our location and our subtropical climate. we often find a different weather and the temperature may progressively decrease during our ascent to the mountains and usually we do not have a big difference from sea level to the highest mountains. 3º Pico do Areeiro - 1818 meters 2º Pico da Torre - 1851 meters 1º Pico Ruivo - 1861 meters The weather conditions are always unrelated and we never know what we will find during our tours, however in normal conditions we will have good weather - IPMA Join us on a jeep safari tour and enjoy this diversity - Always Madeira 4x4 one of the things to do in Funchal

When you book a 4x4 private tour with us you guarantee a personalized service always with a local guide.

With the experience over the years with customers who seek Jeep tours to explore the best that Madeira has to offer we naturally give a fantastic experience, all customers are different which also makes our tours always different. Many of these changes/requests are in advance and so we can customize the tour or sometimes they are made on the day of the tour.

Edyta Lipska -We’ve been so lucky to choose Always Madeira for our private tour of the north-west of the island. The views and beauty of this island speak for themselves but to have a guide like Edgar is that cherry on the top. Fascinating day, full of excitement, breathtaking views and all this with the narrative of someone who’s bread and born on this piece of paradise. What could be a better mix? All I can say is a big thank you! And hope we’ll be back soon to this welcoming, already deeply rooted in my heart, land.

Pico do Areeiro is the most popular place to see the sunrise but due 1818 meters of altitude and because it is very popular place the access sometimes is complicated due the immense vehicles up there. As an alternative to escape the crowds we have this beautiful suggestion, usually always good weather, so you can enjoy these beautiful colors and the beautiful landscape on our customized tour.

Prickly Cardoon - "Cynara cardunculus" Madeira has an immense landscape diversity, this part of the island being drier and more arid where the green preduminate does not exist at all, but we can always find some vegetation or flowers, in this case Prickly Cardoon - endemic of Madeira and the Canary Islands.

Madeira is certainly the pride of all of us, it is often difficult to find words to describe everything that this magical island has, providing not only to the locals, but also all those who visit us that feeling of peace and tranquility that we can call Paradise on Earth.

Prive of Madeira - "Echium candicans"

You can customize our private tour, it can be the full day East or the half day and go through this fantastic off-road. It is located in the protected area - Laurissilva Forest, UNESCO World Heritage.

On this off-road we have a large area with these Australian tree-ferns, they can reach up to 10 meters height and we can see them on the island up to an altitude of 850 meters.

Dear Kristie and Kinsley - "Edgar was so resourceful and quick to find us and pick us up, even though we had gone to the wrong pick up spot. From there he mapped our day in a unique sequence so that we could see the natural pools at a time that was less busy. Edgar knows so much detail about the region and shares interesting insights. It’s clear that he truly loves Madeira inside and out. We saw the most incredible things. He drives very safely and we trusted him. Our day with Edgar was one of our favorites from our whole trip. We would definitely recommend this incredible, kind person to host your Madeira adventures."
