“This was such a fun afternoon. My guide told me about a lot of history of the island and the places we were driving through, and he also answered all of my questions. I got to visit Cabo Girao, which was beautiful. And the wine tasting was fantastic. We tried six wines - three white, one rosé, and two red - and learned all about the production of each. This was a great way to spend half a day, especially when the weather wasn’t great on the island.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 29 reviews · 8 hours · from $128

Review of Madeira’s Cabo Girão, winery, off-road drive, and dolphin cruise, with practical advice on value, timing, food, and expectations.

“Het leukste aan de activiteit was het wijnproeven, de info die we daar kregen en de korte safaririt met de open dak. De boottrip was echter niet zo, die was erg lang gezien weinig verandering uitzicht e.n beperkte info. Het was vooral veel varen, kort zwemmen (Max. 10 minuten) en er werd helemaal geen verdere informatie of praatje gegeven over de dieren etc. De crew gaf aan het begin een veiligheidsinstructie echter waren zij niet te verstaan boven het geronk van de boot.”
