Amazing experience on the Levada 25 Fontes hike! The trail is stunning, and our guide was very attentive and caring – he adjusted the pace to the group, gave us flashlights for the tunnel, and always looked after our safety. At the end, he even introduced us to poncha, a traditional drink, and took us to a local spot to try it. Such a perfect finish to a perfect tour. Highly recommended!

I liked the hike. Our guide told interesting facts about the island. He was also very attentive to our safety. I especially liked that at the end we stopped at a place where we tried poncho and saw how it was prepared. I recommend it.

Had a great day with paulo our guide, who was very informative about the history of madeira. He looked after my 75 year old mum from start to finish on the walk. I would highly recommend this walk, Paulo and explore nature. I had a great day from start to finish. The poncho at the end was rather strong and definitely authentic.
