This is our second trip to this beautiful Island. We came back as we loved it so much. We used Hit the road 2 years ago and we booked weigh them again. Hugo was our guide and like last time he was wonderful. Island is becoming busy with tourists. He took us to different areas and at the perfect time to avoid the busy tourists areas.

Hit the Road Tours is an excellent tour group for anyone looking to explore the island of Madeira, Portugal, to better understand the lay of the land. The tour gave me a better understanding of where I wanted to visit and where I want to stay in the future. Like a recon mission of the island. Fabio the tour guide was born to be a tour guide. He is helpful and provides an honest perspective of life on the island. What makes this tour group stand out from others is that they are not beholden to a set itinerary or route. Tour guides are at the liberty to change routes based on your requests. Guides can change routes to avoid bad weather and big crowds. Highly recommended!

A great varied tour. The vehicle was comfortably able to take us through some marvellous scenery up tracks that would be inaccessible for ordinary hire cars. There were plenty of opportunities for a comfort stop on this full day tour. A table was reserved for lunch in Port Moniz (cost not included) and was good. One of our party opted for a swim off the beach at Seixal, and was not alone as many visitors and locals took the opportunity in the calm sea. Our final call was to the Tasquinha da Poncha in Sierra de Agua, for a traditionally made glass of Poncha (not from a bottle!) Do try the Fishermans Poncha. Our driver was Victor, and I hope we have him on our next tour (next year).
