Portugal Walking Trips

I've worked in the adventure tourism industry for three decades and know a little bit about the industry. This itinerary was absolutely spot on and suited everyone in the group. Our guide was however the reason the trip was so fantastic. Joao Camara's was born in Funchal and his local knowledge regarding the islands geography, fauna, history etc was amazing. Having worked in tourism in other countries his professional, informative and amusing approach was brilliant. I will definitely be back in Madeira that's for sure

Well organised, thoughtfully managed, great days out walking and seeing all around the island. We had fantastic weather, could hike every day, and through our guide Joao, Madeiran born and proud of his home, learnt about the history, flora and fauna of Madeira. Everything from hotels, transport, daily itinerary, food and meals in the evening made the experience fun and memorable. I’ll be going back in the Spring when the wildflowers bloom. Very good value and an excellent hiking trip.

Each day the hiking was different. The logistics were well covered- hauling our luggage from hotel to hotel and showing up with rides to our hikes. The hotels were all very comfortable. I would recommend using this company for hiking trips.

Great trip, ticked all the right boxes. Especially glad of the tour leader Ester Galindo, very knowledgeable and professional, adapting to changing circumstances to keep everyone happy and a great laugh as well

I loved my walking holiday in Madeira. The walks along the levadas and through the forests were beautiful with stunning views everywhere you look. Most hikes were uncrowded so there was a real sense of tranquility. The terrain was mainly flat, (although there were a couple of steep inclines and descents) so very 'doable'. I was there in early November when the weather was warm and sunny at lower levels, but cooler on the higher ground. Our guide Joao was brilliant. He took great care of us and gave us so much information about the island, its history and the flora and fauna. I really enjoyed the trip and highly recommend it to others.

João Camara was our guide for the 7 day walking in Madeira trip & he was excellent. Friendly, knowledgeable, personable, & funny. The levada walks, mountain treks, & other hikes we did, were all manageable, some more challenging than others, with varying terrains & outstanding scenery. The 3 different hotels all suited our purposes, & were very comfortable. We had lots of great meals, & the multi-nationality group were a really good bunch of people. I absolutely loved Madeira, it's a beautiful place, & thoroughly enjoyed the walking. I would recommend it to anyone.
