Perfect Tour
We were collected by Jorge in a Green Devil Discovery. We saw some of the island as we drove to our destination. Jorge gave us a detailed insite into what the island grows best and when the roads & tunnels were built and how big each town is. Stopping for a look at the tallest cliff face above the sea. Then a small cave & river with a coffee stop. Then arriving at our Winery. We were given the tour by Helener / Eleainor who spoke excellent English. We tasted the wines and Jorge returned us to our hotel in Cancal. The weather isn’t very nice in the mornings so we didn’t miss the glorious sunshine as we weee back just after lunch. Excellent tour. Would thoroughly recommend.

Winery Trip
Great scenery on the trip and at the winery itself. We were given several samples to taste but the wine was only average
Response from the operator: Hello, I'm glad you had a great day with our guide, but about the wine is not production of Green Devil Safari. It is unfair to receive a less favorable rating when you mentioned that you loved the guide and the landscapes. They are sourced from Quinta do Barbusano, and your evaluation should be directed towards them.

Not as advertised, underwhelming
The trip did not start off well with us being picked up an hour late and this was certainly not a "breathtaking jeep tour" but rather just a trip on the regular highway straight to the vineyard which was the only positive thing about this trip (great staff, great wines). After the wine tasting was over we only got to visit one of the five stops as advertised for the trip Cabo Girao. This stop was underwhelming due to the fact it was getting dark and could not be fully enjoyed.
Response from the operator: You were informed that the guide would arrive late due to a traffic accident on the highway, and unfortunately, there was nothing we could do to alter that situation. However, please note that the four-hour tour was completed as scheduled, and the guide visited all the sites included in the itinerary. The five locations mentioned are simply areas through which the tour passes; they were never designated as mandatory stopping points but rather as pass-through zones, and that is where your group traveled through.

Great trip but not for the faint hearted!
This was a great trip but not for the faint hearted!! The off-road driving was fun but very bumpy and some of the on-road driving was pretty hair-raising too!! Having said that, we saw some lovely viewpoints and had the chance to stand up in the back of the jeep off-road. I enjoyed the wine tasting. We got to sample 6 wines (3 white, one rosé and two reds) and could refill our favourites. We had just the right amount of time there.

Half day jeep Wine tour and tasting, & sea cliff adventure: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Funchal.
How much does Half day jeep Wine tour and tasting, & sea cliff adventure cost?
+
Prices start at $63 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 Half day jeep Wine tour and tasting, & sea cliff adventure take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Half day jeep Wine tour and tasting, & sea cliff adventure worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 27 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 Half day jeep Wine tour and tasting, & sea cliff adventure?
+
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 Half day jeep Wine tour and tasting, & sea cliff adventure suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Half day jeep Wine tour and tasting, & sea cliff adventure?
+
Around 9 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Half day jeep Wine tour and tasting, & sea cliff adventure 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?
+

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.
