Hello, welcome to the Island of madeira. A little Paradise in the middle of the Atlantic that I luckily call home, that is also rich in costumes, tradition and heritage. My name is Antonio, I was born and raised in Madeira Island. I live a city life, but have connections with the island's rural life, where my free time was spent listening to stories from older people and what it was like in their time, having the perspective of how their lives were. I was abroad for a few years in Venezuela, The UK and lastly Italy. But I always returned to the island. Last time that I returned, I needed to reinvent myself to escape from my normal life. It all began gathering friends and going on adventures in a little 4x4, discovering the island truly from a different perspective. From then on, it was the beginning of my dream job. My Land Rover Discovery is my office. Using this car we can reach narrow roads and off-road tracks to find hidden places and fauna. Let me take you with me and share the best of our island. My 4x4 tours are designed for people who really want to explore the island in a relaxed, calm way trying to escape from crudeness, learn about our culture and history. Your time is my commitment.

Wonderful day on a beautiful island. Feel like we saw the real Funchal! António was so informative on his islands history also. The island and people are lovely.

Antonio was a fantastic tour guide with a wealth of knowledge and expert driving skills on the steep, winding roads. He knew the best time to visit places to avoid the crowds and seemed to be able to avoid the rain too! He was so flexible in accommodating our requests and incredibly patient as we took dozens and dozens photographs. If you want a bespoke tour that runs...
