OLÁ. My name is Nicolau, Nico for my friends, born and raised in Madeira, I can say that I live in one of the best and most beautiful places in the world. not only by its exuberant nature but also for our people and traditions, love my heritage and island. I lived outside Madeira for a while, but couldn't stand living far away from my roots. . and since I came back years ago, and took my official Guide and mountain guiding course, knew immediately that the thing that would make me happier and fulfilled was offering and showing you my home! Knowing the Toursbylocals, I was the first guide for Madeira Island and It as been some fantastic years, but everyday feel that its our first day, and been working as an idependent local guide with ToursByLocals (yes looks like it was yesterday) To be able to do what I love, and reach travellers like you own that visit our island and want to see what was really important. . not just going to all the touristic places. . but be free to give you the taste of a local! In my life, I always try not to choose the "big man" and give the maximum back to small independent workers and business, like me, so I hope you don't get tricked and lured as well into a fake tasteless tour, of the big companies sharks "disguised" as a local experiences, that in the end its just one more tour! ;) Let me take you with me and share the best of our island. I love my cars, one is a classic UMM jeep, convertible, completely restored and a great machine, other is my vw transporter mini bus or a SUV, but as professional can also get any type of transport like a bus for a bigger group, and my tours are designed for the people who really want to explore the island in a relaxed calm way, learn about our culture and history. . drink and eat in the real local places. for you as I believe in people, not numbers! Hope to count on you, so I can keep fulfilling my purpose. . showing to you the real Madeira!! Official Certified Mountain Guide

This trip is perfect for an island visit for the people on a schedule as for example a cruise ship, or want to explore a bit more of the island is not a long day! On a 4 hour, maximize your time on the island, trough the highlights and experience Madeira on a concentrated way, so If you are on a ship, then we could arrange the dropoff in the town with very good tips for you to explore also on your own so you can enjoy the rest of your free time!! Would love to show you around the island I was born and raised and also costumize the trip for your
If the day is clear, we will climb directly to pico do areeiro, the 3rd highest peak on the island to then take the panoramic road to the Nuns valley (this road is only open with good weather conditions). Otherwise, we will depart from Funchal to Eira do Serrado for one of the most beautiful views of Madeira, the Nuns Valley (Curral das Freiras) a small village in the heart of the island. From there its time to head down to Câmara de lobos fishing village and cabo girão cliff, all done in a very calm and with great photo opportunities and stops. -The tour can be customised according to your preferences, please inquire
