Hiking in Madeira: Top Outdoor Adventures Awaiting You

Our guide was Alvaro. He was great, and knowledgeable about local plants and the history of the levadas. He also plucked a puppy from the levada and saved him from drowning! We learned a lot, and the Levada do Norte walk was easy, flat and just the right speed for us.

Nina is an amazing guide. There seems to be nothing she doesnt know about these mountains, Madeira and especially the fruits and plants. We had a fantastic short hike up to Pico Ruivo, the views are incredible. Great fun. Highly recommended

Besides the mistake in the description. “Sunrise to sunset”. We really enjoyed our guided tour. He was friendly, knew a lot to tell about Madeira and the environment, the nature and history. He gave us some tips for the rest of our holiday as well. He really made the tour end into a perfect day.

Just a superb half-day, from start to finish. All the arrangements and timings were spot on. Our guide Felipe was outstanding and very knowledegable; something we found extremely helpful as first time visitors to Madeira. Even on the journey out to the Levada, we learned so much from him about the history of Madeira and local landmarks. We would definitely take another walk or a tour, when we return, although we may not be as lucky to get Felipe again as our guide the next time around.
