Hi, my name is Edgar, born and raised in Madeira Island, a small paradise in the Atlantic. Going back in time, what started as a sporadic service is now a pure passion, after 12 years of working full time in one of the most fulfilling and beautiful jobs in the world. For me to see the joy and the glow in the eyes of my clients is something really unique. Being capable of making them forever remember Madeira in their hearts, is something priceless. Get to experience something thrilling, unique and centered in the heart of the one and only Madeira Island. I will provide you a marvelous jeep-tour experience that you can take home sharing with your family and friends. Throughout our beautiful landscapes, forests and old roads I will make you able to enjoy an exquisite journey that will show you the true Madeira I will continue learning each day to give our clients a service of excellence. Having always taken great care of my cars, to always provide the comfort and safety that our clients seek and deserve, my greatest purpose is to know the best Madeira Island has to offer, in places that few can show. With a 4x4 vehicle we will explore and go through old and off roads, giving you a perspective of breathtaking landscapes and experiences that you'll never forget. This is me, give me an opportunity to show you who we are, and where we stand, on one of the most beautiful islands of all. Join me and be prepared for a great and remarkable journey that you will for sure not regret. Tour Guide Since 2010

In this journey I will be showing you the Eastern Side of our lovely Island. You will see the old, alternative, magical roads that were used in the old times and were still being used in recent days. These are roads in places where the old traditions still remain in the daily life of the locals. We will be able to present to you their perspectives as we travel throughout time. You'll also see amazing views of the central mountains, then later the landscape over the north east coast and valleys of the island. We will have several attractions where green will be predominant, due to the Laurissilva protected area, but also different colors from the flowers that we will come across during the tour. This being said, we believe that you will have a wonderful time, you will see distinctive and unique landscapes, you will meet such lovely people and in the end you will have a great story to bring home.
-We will start by leaving Funchal on the way to Pico do Areeiro, the third highest peak in Madeira, 1818 meters tall. -Continuing this trip, we will go down to Ribeiro Frio where you'll have the opportunity to do a beautiful 45m hike throughout this (optional) path. -Passing through valleys, mountains, and astonishing views, we will drive an off-road that'll take us to Santana. Santana it's a mandatory stop on this trip, because of the old traditions and culture it presents, with the traditional houses and much more to see.
