Published on Dec, 2024

Samuel, was patient, and knowledgeable. We had a very diverse group with all abilities. He knew when to show us the amazing views, made us feel secure and safe on this hike.Gave us information on vegetation, also gave us details and information on our travels to the hike. The hike was not simple, lots of steps, lots of narrow passages, the sun gets very hot during the trek.Well worth it,I would go again.

This is the best hike I have ever experienced in Madeira!

Published on Dec, 2023

This is the best hike I have ever experienced in Madeira! The biggest reason I came to Madeira was to see the Ponta de São Lourenço, and this hike fulfilled and even surpassed all my expectations, it was totally perfect! I've decided that every year I come to Madeira, I will sign up for the hike again. For me, this hike was easier than the Levada Rabacal and the 25 Foutains hikes because there wasn't as much downhill. Before joining the hike, I was worried that the beach would be cold because of the strong sea breeze, but in fact it was the complete opposite! Even though it was December, it was hot along the route once the sun came out and there was no sea breeze, so it was important to bring a hat and good sun protection. Don't worry about going to the toilet, the guide will take you to a pub before the official start of the hike, and there is also a small restaurant where you can pay 1 euro to go to the toilet and have a refill of drinks when you get to the highest point of the hike.

Amazing day tour in Madeira

Published on Oct, 2023

Enjoyed very much the day tour. The guide, Daria, was very nice as a person and adjusted the walking pace to the group, made rest stops as needed where we received interesting explanations about the place.

Great

Published on Sep, 2023

Great group and enjoyed the trip a lot. The view is stunning and the guide is very patient in answering questions.

Dramatic but safe coastal walk

Published on Feb, 2023

Thanks to Nuno and Carlos who made it a very pleasant and enjoyable day out along the sunny and dramatic eastern peninsula. A very safe and moderate walk at a steady but not fast pace with some ups and downs. You can see both north and south coasts. We finished ahead of schedule so had time to do other things later in the afternoon. At halfway there is a café with picnic tables selling snacks and drinks. 1 euro for the loo.
