Vi reste med guide vars familj var jordbrukare. Det var bara ett annat par som delade minibussen. På rundturen kom vi till ställen som vanliga turistguider inte har tillgång till, så som en plantskola där man bedriver utveckling och studier och vi fick lära oss mycket om arbetet och utvecklingen av växterna på ön. Intressant var också ett besök på hennes familjs bananodling och kollektivet där bananklasarna tas om hand. Har du det minsta intresse för växter eller en vanlig Madeirabos vardag är det här en resa för dig.

Great experiece. We learned alot about farming and the life at Madeira. With just one other couple and a guide eager to tell us everything it was great. How they handle the bananas was the best part.
