    This is a must do experience when you’re in Madeira - the trek wasn’t daunting at all, although there were a couple hilly climbs but they were short and easy to navigate — our guide was AMAZING, informative, patient, and very very kind — again a must do if you get to Madeira

    Incredible experience and day. Our original walk was cancelled because of bad weather but we did a different levada hike on the day and it was insanely good. Such beautiful views and our guide was amazing, he ensured we were all safe and comfortable (despite me having a fear of heights!!!!!) I was so happy to be able to complete the new walk and see some waterfalls and cool plants. Definitely recommend this tour

    I booked this trip well in advance although the walk was lovely i did have a bad experience with the booking when i arrived did not get the pick up point the day before and had to try to contact the tour operators but could not get in touch which left me feeling anxious so in the end contacted yourself and you got it sorted otherwise i don’t think we would have been picked up at all so i won’t be booking so far in advance again
