    We had the best time; a super knowledgeable but relaxed guide who brought a lot of fun. Great wines, great views. Absolutely worth the cost and a good lunch stop too. Never too rushed, and a small group made it feel very personal throughout. Thank you!

    We did the 4x4 jeep safari with tour guide David who was informative, knowledgeable and fun. The views were outstanding, definitely recommend.

    Fantastic day out.

    Whilst no off roading, the smaller roads were steep and rough, can be challenging in a Land Rover for some.

    Didn’t happen and terrible customer service

    Awful, they didn’t turn up and when eventually got through to company they said they had cancelled it as a bit of road is closed and told trip advisor. No one informed us. Wasted the morning of our holiday to to resolve

    Response from the operator: Hello Dear We really do not understand this review after your reservation was canceled and refunded. We are not responsible for your failure to answer several calls or read several phone and WhatsApp messages, in addition to the emails we sent you through the Viator/Tripadvisor platform (message below). We contacted you in every way possible, without success. The fact that you are on vacation should not prevent you from answering calls or reading messages and emails. Unfortunately, we are in the rainy season. The tour did not take place due to the weather, as the off-road section and the vineyards tour could not be carried out for safety reasons. All the best, True Spirit Team Hello Dear Customer We hope you’re doing well. Unfortunately, we’ve just been informed by the local authorities that the off-road section of the tour you booked is currently closed. For safety reasons, we won’t be able to operate the tour tomorrow as planned. We kindly ask that you cancel your reservation through Viator/Tripadvisor, and we will promptly authorize the refund. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding. Thank you. Best regards, Luísa True Spirit Nov 5, 2025, 03:18 PM True Spirit Nov 5, 2025, 06:34 PM

    Madiera best wine tour!

    Best tour by far! Diogo Camacho our tour guide was an absolute rock star. Weather was semi cooperating so we weren’t able to get to all our stops but Diogo made sure we didn’t miss out on anything. Extremely knowledgeable and friendly!

    Signature Wine Tastings, Skywalk, Nature 4x4 Open Roof Expedition: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Funchal.

    How much does Signature Wine Tastings, Skywalk, Nature 4x4 Open Roof Expedition cost?

    +

    Prices start at $102 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 Signature Wine Tastings, Skywalk, Nature 4x4 Open Roof Expedition take?

    +

    Plan for about 7.5 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 Signature Wine Tastings, Skywalk, Nature 4x4 Open Roof Expedition worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 83 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 193 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 Signature Wine Tastings, Skywalk, Nature 4x4 Open Roof Expedition?

    +

    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 Signature Wine Tastings, Skywalk, Nature 4x4 Open Roof Expedition suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Signature Wine Tastings, Skywalk, Nature 4x4 Open Roof Expedition?

    +

    Around 68 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 7.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Signature Wine Tastings, Skywalk, Nature 4x4 Open Roof Expedition 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, Madeira 4x4 Jeep Safari : Porto Moniz, Lava Pools & Fanal Forest. 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.
