It was a very inclusive trip. I felt I really got to know the cuisine and culture. We explored the different regions and the countryside is stunning. The picture is the view from my hotel balcony.

Great experiences and activities - weather dependent.
Our only suggestion is to provide more detailed information on what to bring depending upon the week you book. We ended up purchasing and packing things that were unnecessary.
Good introductory cross-section in major cities. Good balance of scheduled vs. free time. Would like a little more emphasis on art--especially Uffizi Gallery and Pisan Camposanto--plus entry into St. Mark's/Doge's Palace and Duomo church (rather than some of the shopping stuff). A little too much commercial, too little history/art. (Some of guides under-informed, including one who said Galileo discovered the "two planets" around Jupiter!).
Set off on a six-day Premium hiking adventure through Madeira’s dramatic coastlines, volcanic landscapes and lush forests. Hike the 25 Fontes trail and visit Risco Waterfall, relax in natural volcanic rock pools at Porto Moniz, take in the sweeping ocean views on your hike to Vereda da Ponta de Sao Lourenco and hike to the highest point on the island on the Vereda do Pico do Ruivo. Along the way, visit small mountain villages, learn about the region’s local culture and indulge in Madeira’s most famous local produce, wine and rum. With its mild climate and diverse terrain, Madeira offers the perfect escape and hiking destination all year round.

A winning combination of walks in stunning scenery and top quality hotels in which to relax at the end of the day. Being self guided was a great experience, walking notes very clear, and you can go at your own choice of pace and stop whenever you want. Highly recommended.

A great trip that allows you to explore all parts of the island and learn about the history of the island on a tour that is interesting and at time challenging.
The guides are really knowledgeable and ensure you experience all aspects of this fascinating island - the history, the food, its wines and its culture - a really interesting introduction.

The guides answered all my curious questions with great patience. This is a very important detail because this patience is not usually shown in tours with a rich itinerary like this tour. You deserve a big 5 points from me.
