Customer's reviews

I would like to highly recommend Catia as an exceptional guide in Madeira and the best taxi/transport service on the island. Catia stands out not only for her excellent knowledge of Madeira, its tourist attractions, and hidden gems but also for her professionalism in customer service. With her services, traveling around the island becomes a true pleasure. Moreover, communication with Catia is incredibly easy and quick—you can always reach her effortlessly through WhatsApp. Regardless of the time of day, you can count on a prompt response and punctuality at the agreed times. Her flexibility and reliability make her a service you can trust in any situation. If you're looking for a dependable guide and transport in Madeira, Catia is definitely the best choice. I highly recommend her! ~ L. E
My wife and I booked Explore Madeira Tours for our airport pick up, drop off, and the East and West Island tours. They were very great people, super nice and knowledgeable. They took us to places that we would have never found and we actually met some of the family too which was awesome. They showed us great food spots and provided recommendations. One thing to note on how patient they were and nice, our flight was delayed for a three hours. However, Explore Madeira was able to be flexible with our schedule and gave us an hour to refresh before going on the tour. We highly recommend them, do not hesitate to book. Cátia and her husband were very nice people. If we come back we would most definitely reach out to them, they are just wonderful people! Thank you Explore Madeira Tours! Friends from USA ~ Greg T
Serviço absolutamente impecável! Desde o primeiro contacto até ao final da viagem, tudo foi muito bem organizado e profissional. Os condutores foram sempre pontuais, simpáticos e prestáveis, e os veículos estavam em excelente estado. Nota-se que todo o serviço é pensado com atenção ao detalhe. Sem dúvida, um serviço 5 estrelas na Madeira — recomendo vivamente! ~ Paulo C
