Why stick to the usual roads when Madeira's wilder side is calling? On this off-road adventure, you'll start with ocean views at Cabo Girão – one of Europe's highest sea cliffs – before snaking through the scenic São Vicente Valley, where quiet trails wind between red-roofed farms and lush peaks. The grand finale is a visit to Quinta do Barbusano, where you'll tour the vines with an expert, enjoy a selection of local wines and nibbles – and take in views that make every sip even sweeter.

Make sure that you are covered by insurance and that the 4x4 are safe to travel ie brakes!!! Plus the condition of the vehicle is very dirty! The wine tasting is a complete rip off and is not value for the money!!!

Trotz des sehr wechselhaften Wetters ist es dem Guide gelungen einen sehr schönen Tag zu verbringen. Wir haben die Insel und ihre Landschaft auf ganz besondere Art gesehen und es sehr genossen . Auch die Weinprobe wurde mit viel Enthusiasmus der Mitarbeiter durchgeführt. Es hat sich auf jeden Fall gelohnt.

The Winery To set the expectation level right, this is not Rheinhessen or the Elsass (Riesling lovers) nor Piedmont, Burgundy or Bordeaux. The winery is rustic, still quite young and run only by 4 people. We got to try 3 whites, one rose and 2 reds. The whites came from the surrounding hills in between the valleys and the reds from further away where there is more sun. Anyway these are Madeira wines, climate and soil dependent and they do the best they can do. We had fun and enjoyed it.

The jeep was over 30 mins late to us and no one contacted us to tell us! Awful customer service! The driver of the jeep was excellent
