I am one of those lucky people doing what he loves for a living and you will witness that with the dedication and passion I show in every tour and the knowledge I can share with you. As years go by, I have been discovering this island and its hidden spots, the people, their stories, and our history that will entertain us between stops. Wine will be just the cherries on top of this unforgettable tour with amazing views where we will visit regions on the north and south of the island. Trust me, this is not those wine tours where you spend all day in some vineyards with lots of other visitors. On this tour, we will avoid busy places and between wine stops, there will be many surprises.

This tour will take you to Madeira's most beautiful vineyards in São Vicente, Northwest of Madeira. Surrounded by breathtaking landscapes where cliffs, mountains, forest, and cultivated terraces melt harmoniously. This is a perfect symbiosis between culture and nature. Regardless of the amazing scenery, we will visit producers on the south and north side of the island and try the most relevant types of wine. From the worldwide famous fortified Madeira Wine to table wines and homemade using traditional grape varietals and processes. For lunch break, we can have a snack or a typical meal in a non-touristy restaurant. Because these are unique tours, customized to each guest, other stops and options with more surprises will be suggested to add to your tour. Please bring a fully charged camera, the diversity in terms of the landscape it's simply mindblowing, and with a panoramic roof, anytime can be a photo time.
