First but not last
This is the first time I have been on a jeep Safari being in my early 70s. I didn’t know whether my age would contribute to struggling on the off road element but our wonderful guide/driver Lino took it easy and was very entertaining and informative as well as a capable driver of. We were a mixed age and nationality group that gelled very well and we had a blast. Lino took us to the recommended restaurant where we were served ample food in our three course lunch and as good quality as many of the much more expensive restaurants I’ve been to here I will definitely do a another tour when I come back

Best tour guide dino
From the very moment we were picked up from the hotel. Dino our guide was very friendly, very informative and chatty, always smiling, And when our journey began, He kept the tour really interesting. He pointed out different things, And told us the name of different plants and what they done. gave us the opportunity to take pictures, Me and my partner and the 2 other passengers have a fantastic day with Dino our friendly guide.

Brilliant day out exploring Madeira..
My wife and I did the jeep safari last week (September 18th..) with Pedro.. We couldn't have asked for a better person to be our guide for the day.. He is an instantly likeable guy.. Friendly, helpful, intelligent (he speaks multiple languages and really knows the history of the island that he is clearly proud of..) and also super funny with an awesome sense of humour.. Everyone in the jeep was laughing together and having a great time all day long.. I highly recommend this day out if you want to see and learn a lot more about the real Madeira.. Thanks again Pedro for an amazing day.. We wish you and your family all the best for the future and will definitely book with you again when we return ❤️ Adam and Ruth Hodkinson from London

Why this scores 69
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Jeep Adventure to Volcanic Pools & UNESCO Forest Treasures: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Funchal.
How much does Jeep Adventure to Volcanic Pools & UNESCO Forest Treasures cost?
+
Prices start at $82 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 Jeep Adventure to Volcanic Pools & UNESCO Forest Treasures 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 Jeep Adventure to Volcanic Pools & UNESCO Forest Treasures worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 19 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 Jeep Adventure to Volcanic Pools & UNESCO Forest Treasures?
+
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 Jeep Adventure to Volcanic Pools & UNESCO Forest Treasures 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 Jeep Adventure to Volcanic Pools & UNESCO Forest Treasures?
+
Around 7 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 Jeep Adventure to Volcanic Pools & UNESCO Forest Treasures 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.
