“We were really lucky with the weather. We only hiked part of the PR1 (as the rest of it is shut). It was quite busy with lots of tourists. The PR3 trail we went on after was much quieter and the scenery was beautiful. Watching the sunrise at pick do ariero was amazing, good transport and all in all lovely trip that was worth the money.”

“Great experience and great insight into Madeira culture and ways from Phillip, the guide on the way there and back.”

“Amazing, Felipe was the best guide/driver I’ve ever had on a hiking tour! Super friendly. Learned lots about Madeira from him and he gave some great recommendations for food and things to do. In terms of the transfers, everything was timely, and the communication was great! Wasn’t rushed at all and got to experience the hike fully. Even had time to explore some of the side paths.”

“Great day out. Less crowded than other hikes and a perfect distance to stretch the legs. Scenery is beautiful. Thanks to Vitor for the ride in and out”

“It was a nice hike lots of steps. I enjoyed it very much. Maybe as another option it would be nice to make a longer day of it so you had time for lunch at the cafe or a swim depending on your preference. The cafe is was very busy so it took a little time to order.”

“Fabulous trip, early start but you get a great spot for the sunrise. And the stars are amazing such a clear view of the sky. Great conditions so saw the sunrise above the clouds , amazing view. Take layers as it’s quite cool early on in the morning got to the top at 0615 and the sunrise was 0735 so take a few snacks and a drink. I wore trainers and was fine the trail is very dry so trainers were fine. I do a lot of hikes in the Lake District, so it wasn’t difficult just a lot of downhill on the PR3 section on dusty paths. The PR1…”

“Driver was waiting in the arrival area and had a sign with my name in it. He was friendly, & confirmed my stay location as it was not at a hotel. Very safe driver & dropped me off at my stay. I would highly recommend this service- great price & clean vehicles. What’s not to like.”

“The forest and scenery is beautiful! Personally I preferred the 25 Fontes and Risco waterfalls but the Caldeirão Verde waterfall is still pretty (just felt more crowded). If you are a bit anxious about heights just be mindful the last little stretch might make you a bit nervous (worth pushing through though). When it gets busy the paths are tight so letting people past is tricky. Luis was awesome at giving us insights to from the hike.”

“It all went as planned and luis was good at guiding us before the hike and answering questions about the hike. He also took us to santana on they way back. If you are hiking pico ruivo and need a transfer I definitely can recommend this one 👌🏽”

“Excellent value, there were no negatives. Our driver was on time, the mini bus was clean. Orlando, our driver, was great, he made sure we had a memorable day in Funchal. Thank you.”
