We had an amazing private jeep tour in Madeira and it was one of the highlights of our trip. The scenery was incredible, but what really made the experience special was our guide, Jazz. He was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about the island’s history, culture, and hidden gems. He shared so many helpful insights throughout the day and was always happy to answer questions. Jazz made the tour both fun and informative, and his enthusiasm for Madeira was contagious. We highly recommend this tour and especially Jazz as a guide!
If you’re visiting Madeira and only do one excursion, make it this one — and make sure you ask for Jaz. From the moment my wife and I set off in his spotless new Jeep Wrangler, it was clear that Jaz isn’t just doing a job — he genuinely loves this island with a passion. That enthusiasm is completely infectious. He brought places to life with stories, local knowledge and a real pride in showing off Madeira’s hidden gems, taking us to spots we would never have found on our own. The route was perfectly balanced — stunning viewpoints, dramatic landscapes, lush forest tracks and some seriously fun off-road sections that had us gripping our seats (in the best possible way!). The Jeep Wrangler handled every rugged path with ease, and it was clear the vehicle was well-maintained and road-ready — or should I say, off-road ready! What really set this experience apart was Jaz himself. He was attentive throughout, making sure we were both comfortable and happy, flexible with stops, and great fun to spend the day with. He has a brilliant sense of humour and a natural ability to make you feel completely at ease — whether you’re seasoned adventurers or just looking for something a little different from the usual tourist trail. We left with full memory cards, big smiles and a much deeper appreciation for this incredible island. Jaz — you made our trip. Thank you!
Hi there, Thank you so much for this incredible review! Hearing that this was the highlight of your Madeira trip is exactly why we do what we do. We are lucky to have Jaz on our team; his passion for the island and his commitment to giving our guests a true, authentic insider’s look is what sets our private expeditions apart. He was thrilled to read your words, especially the shout-out to his favorite working tool—the new Wrangler Rubicon! We take great pride in keeping our fleet in top-notch condition to tackle those rugged off-road tracks with total comfort and safety. It was a real pleasure having you both on board. Whenever you decide to return to Madeira to discover more hidden gems, you know where to find us. Safe travels and big smiles, The Vanscape Tours Team
A very good experience, especially the guide who is incredible and makes the excursion a complete experience.
