Most amazing tours
We had two wonderful, private , full day tours with Green Devil . Both trips were amazing . Lino was our driver and he was brilliant for both tours . He took us to the most amazing locations , beautiful beaches , mountain tops like we had never seen and made both days so much fun . He saw my 9 year old son in a Ronaldo jersey on both days and took us the stadium where he first played . My son loved it and it was no problem at all to Lino . He also recommended and booked our lunch venues for us when we got hungry . Both tours were at our own pace and we never felt pressured to hurry or rush . We were a family of 6 from adults to young kids and we all agreed it was the highlight of our holiday . Thank you so much to Lino .

Excellent, informative and fun tour which created some fantastic memories of beautiful Madeira.
Top notch tour with our driver/guide Miguel, who made the day interesting, exciting, and also great fun! We were a group of 8 who hired two vehicles for a private day tour. One of the best ways to explore this beautiful island, and to gain insights into its history and culture. We all had such a brilliant day and highly recommend Green Devil to others seeking adventure and some genuine off road experiences with highly experienced and knowledgeable driver/guides. Thanks to Miguel and Alfredo for a fantastic memorable day!

The Best day with Ed!
We had the most AMAZING day with Ed. The six of us had a full day Jeep experience and it was full of fun , laughter making memories in this beautiful Island. Ed organised a day featuring places we wanted to visit , Fanal Forest and Lava Pools and included so much more , the off roading was a massive hit and the whole day was full of surprises and plenty of ‘Wow’ moments ending in a visit to a great Poncha bar. Ed was so knowledgeable and we loved learning so much about the Island and everything it has to offer . See you next time Ed, you really gave us the best day , thank you x

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full Day Private 4x4 Adventure in Madeira: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Funchal.
How much does Full Day Private 4x4 Adventure in Madeira cost?
+
Prices start at $497 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Funchal usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Full Day Private 4x4 Adventure in Madeira take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Funchal is not rushed.
Is Full Day Private 4x4 Adventure in Madeira worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Funchal, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Private 4x4 Adventure in Madeira?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Full Day Private 4x4 Adventure in Madeira suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full Day Private 4x4 Adventure in Madeira?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Funchal can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Funchal and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full Day Private 4x4 Adventure in Madeira start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Funchal within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Funchal?
+
On Outty we rank every Funchal experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Jeep Tour Amazing West to Natural Pools -Full-Day, Porto Moniz, Seixal, Fanal Forest, Cliff Skywalk in Open Roof 4X4, West Tour-Fanal Forest & Porto Moniz Natural Pools Small Groups. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Funchal?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Funchal?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
