What a wonderful tour with Joel! He is so friendly, knowledgeable and his love of the island is infectious. We saw places that only the locals know about and are off the beaten tourist path. I highly recommend a tour with Nourishing Experiences!
Joel took us on a great trip to see some fantastic sights. We asked for something a little different than the main tourist spots and he delivered with a beautiful scenic stop at a very secluded levada, as well as much more. We were also pretty hungry at the end of the tour and Joel arranged for lunch at a local bar for us, happy to go above and beyond!
Joel was absolutely outstanding. Friendly, easy to talk to, and he made the whole trip feel fun and relaxed from start to finish. Choosing this tour was 100% the right decision. I got to see some of the most beautiful views in Madeira, and he also took me to an incredible sunset spot. It honestly turned into one of the best days of my trip. Before the tour, I simply told him what kind of places I wanted to see. Even spots that aren’t very touristy, he planned everything perfectly. It’s clear he knows the island incredibly well and genuinely enjoys sharing it. I had such an amazing time. If I ever come back to Madeira, I would definitely book more days touring with him again.

What can I say, Joel and his team are fantastic people, and even better tour guides. They know the island like the back of their hands, the places they took us to were simply breathtaking, and beyond imagination...from experiencing spectacular views to local cuisine, if you want a truly memorable time, place your trust in Nourishing Experiences... Madeiras no.1 tour company!!!
Wow. Joel took us to places where we could enjoy gorgeous views of the Madeira coastline. He tailored the experience to our needs, as we were traveling with our elderly parents. We could not be happier with our trip. He packed so much useful information into our 4 hour tour and also took us to enjoy some local refreshments. I love that this company strives to deliver a great experience specific to each group that they meet. I will definitely book with Nourishing Experiences again. Thank you Joel and team!
A wonderful day with Joel of Nourishing Experiences in Madeira. Joel & Team communicated effectively helping us to plan a great day on the Island well in advance of our tour date. Joel was on-time, made our tour fun, was expert in managing time throughout the day, was flexible, had a great sense of humor, provided multiple recommendations, truly passionate for his Island/home, and really went above and beyond today ensuring we were good throughout the tour. His English was perfect. Joel provided insights & history into Madeira throughout the tour. The car we took was great. Joel truly knew the Island getting us to our sites without an issue. Joel picked us up at our Cruise Terminal and dropped us off in town as requested. I would Highly recommend this tour and specifically Joel as a tour guide! I am sure we will see Madeira and Nourishing Experiences again! Thanks for an amazing day! Best Rick & Kim
Joel was absolutely fantastic. Do a bit of off- roading if you’re an adrenaline junky and don’t mind a bit of rough and tumble. Joel was very informative, entertaining & enthusiastic! He gave us plenty of time and showed us all his favourite parts of the island in a short space of time. We will DEFINITELY be back and will do a few days touring with him!!
My good man Joel did an amazing job. Very down to earth and extremely knowledgeable about the island and its history. Accommodated us within only one day’s notice (and we found out about him through another pleased traveler who we ran into in the quant Madeirian streets). Stopped when we needed to; never felt rushed nor leaned towards one thing. Definitely as private as it comes with a solid guide. Would definitely recommend and use him again. Best to you, my friend.
Joel gave us a wonderful, personalized tour. We wanted to swim in the lava pools so he took us to Porto Moniz and many beautiful stops along the way. We appreciated Joel’s personal stories and recommendations for places to visit during the rest of our stay. The ride was very comfortable and we had plenty of time to see the highlights of the island. Thank you Joel!
We had a great day out, perfectly customised to meet our preferences, which is the main reason we picked this company. Joel was very friendly, professional and eager to please. He ensured we were comfortable and took us to many places we would have missed if we had tried it on our own. It was fun and the highlight of our week.
We had the more incredible tour with Joel. Afterwards we were left speechless and said it was probably the best tour we had ever had in our 40 years of travel. The tour met all of our desires and was done in a comfortable, friendly manner. Joel was always making sure we were enjoying the tour and willing to make any changes or if we wanted to stay at different locations longer, it was totally up to us. Well done, Joel! Thank you for the memories!
Joel picked us up at the cruise port and proposed the route to us. He was very flexible regarding our special wishes (visit the tropical botanical garden and the Funchal old town and food market) and took us around in his father's Jeep. We went from sea level with numerous stops up to the Pico de Arieiro (1800 m) with beautiful views and down again, using old narrow roads, showing us rural life in Madeira, to the airport where Joel showed us the runway bridge from below. Very interesting tour with a nice guy, highly recommended!
This was our second tour with Joel (that’s how much we enjoyed our time with him!) he is a great guide, very friendly, and tailored the tour perfectly to our needs and requests. He showed us some unique places that we would have never found on our own, giving us a real taste of Madeira away from the crowds. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for some adventure in the most beautiful setting!
Joel makes you feel like your favorite cousin is a local guide at Madeira! He truly personalizes the tour to each group and shows you THE BEST of the island. I’d recommend hiring him at the start of your stay at Madeira so you can take advantage of his amazing recommendations for the rest of your trip. We asked for a nature tour away from the crowds and we got it! Joel knows everything there is to know about the island and freely shares his knowledge. Couldn’t have asked for a better day!
Last month me and my family's had the opportunity to do this half day tour, full on wonders! The name definitely is not for showing off. We had similar experience on this island but this one is worth sharing for anyone that may be interested in discovery less crowded places. Joel was our guide, and to put it simple, we could not ask for someone better. Great driver as well his personality! I can say he his doing what he loves, and that reflects on his work! We had a blast, for someone that already saw a lot of madeira, this guy (joel) had you covered! Thank you, and until next time!
Stumbling upon this tour while browsing through countless options was a stroke of luck. The name immediately caught my attention, and after reading the glowing reviews and detailed description, I decided to give it a try. Bullseye! Reaching out to Joel was the best decision. He answered all our questions thoroughly and made us feel confident about our choice. Joel turned out to be exactly who we hoped for—an incredibly skilled driver, friendly, and hilarious! The breathtaking places he took us to made this tour an highlight of our trip. While I can't compare it to other tours in Madeira, I can confidently say this one is absolutely worth your time and money!
I recently toured Madeira with Nourishing Experiences, and it was extraordinary. Joel, our guide, showcased his passion for the island through detailed, engaging conversations, making the tour both informative and enjoyable.

Worth every penny for us! So, if I recommend to someone's else? Yes I do! Honestly I feel I was very lucky to have such a good time, hope you guys have the same luck as me!
We took a short tour and Joël really did his best to show us as much as possible in that time. There is so much beautiful to see that I would go for a whole day next time.
Went on a half day jeep tour adventure this morning with Joel, a very nice and enthusiastic guide. From the start he did everything he could to make it an unforgettable morning for us. We could specify exactly what we wanted to see and experience. Skip something anyway? No problem at all! So it became a fantastic mix of not too touristy places, beautiful nature, beautiful views, adventurous routes and the best Poncha of Madeira. Also had a lot of nice info about the island and the lives of the residents. And lots of visiting and eating tips. The morning has flown by! This was our first jeep tour and an experience not to be forgotten. Advice: don't hesitate and just book!
We had a great day with Joel. He is an excellent Guide and is very attentive to his clients. Besides, Joel lives in Madeira so he knows his Island very well. My children loved him and us. Joel really cares about making this day memorable for his guests. It was very punctual and communication before the excursion was very simple. He's very accommodating. He took the time to make us recommendations for the rest of our trip and he was very good advice. Joel is also very careful on the road out of concern for safety for his customers. I highly recommend Joel for a memorable day in Madeira!! Do not hesitate, it is excellent!
It was an excessive day! It exceeded all our expectations. From beginning to end, the experience was full of emotions, breathtaking landscapes and an immersion in the knowledge of the Guide! With impeccable organization and warm welcome. His passion for the island is contingency, which has made the experience even more enriching. The group concluded that it was an unforgettable experience. The combination of spectacular landscapes and moments of pure adventure made this day one of the highlights of our trip. I highly recommend this experience to anyone as it is an opportunity to see the island in a completely different and exciting way.
In this experiment we managed to have a complete merger with the island. The landscapes are breathtaking and the Guide Joel has an energy that turns a walk into an authentic adventure, learns the stories of the various paths that it is possible to fall in love with the island of wood. I recommend 100%. I will repeat soon.
