This is the best hike I have ever experienced in Madeira! - This is the best hike I have ever experienced in Madeira! The biggest reason I came to Madeira was to see the Ponta de São Lourenço, and this hike fulfilled and even surpassed all my expectations, it was totally perfect! I've decided that every year I come to Madeira, I will sign up for the hike again. For me, this hike was easier than the Levada Rabacal and the 25 Foutains hikes because there wasn't as much downhill. Before joining the hike, I was worried that the beach would be cold because of the strong sea breeze, but in fact it was the complete opposite! Even though it was December, it was hot along the route once the sun came out and there was no sea breeze, so it was important to bring a hat and good sun protection. Don't worry about going to the toilet, the guide will take you to a pub before the official start of the hike, and there is also a small restaurant where you can pay 1 euro to go to the toilet and have a refill of drinks when you get to the highest point of the hike.

Amazing day tour in Madeira - Enjoyed very much the day tour. The guide, Daria, was very nice as a person and adjusted the walking pace to the group, made rest stops as needed where we received interesting explanations about the place.

Dramatic but safe coastal walk - Thanks to Nuno and Carlos who made it a very pleasant and enjoyable day out along the sunny and dramatic eastern peninsula. A very safe and moderate walk at a steady but not fast pace with some ups and downs. You can see both north and south coasts. We finished ahead of schedule so had time to do other things later in the afternoon. At halfway there is a café with picnic tables selling snacks and drinks. 1 euro for the loo.

Mountainous hike! - This was a great and moderately hard hike but the scenery is wonderful! Our Paulo was great! Well worth it and we got to see some new towns too!

Beautiful hike - Beautiful walk. To note that it is possible to go by bus from Funchal. Our guide was super nice and friendly but if you want to just enjoy the view, it's much cheaper to go in autonomy. Note to the organisers: it would be nice to have a message or email the day before to get the pick up time

The most easternbend of the island - Had a amazing experience again today with with adventure kingdom at Sou Lourenco. Had a great experience from booking to end of the hike. Booked a jouyrney online and it was a pöeasat experience! They aswerred in minutes when you had a question! This is a 2nd time here in madeira and wanted to book again with them! The guide is very professional and can adjust the hike according the group. You will have a lot of information about the hike and the nature. You can do same hike alone, but you will miss the story! Contact them and you wont be disappointed! About the hike! It is a very nice experience about 8 kilometers if you start from the parking, go all the way up and return. There is a nice restaurant before or after the highest point where you can buy coffee, drinks, water, sandwitch, cakes, alcohol etc. WC is also possible to use for small money. There is also a beach that is popular among the local people during the weekend and when we wisited there was a possibility to a have paid a boat transfer back car. You can also enjoy your own meal but take the trash back yourself. Also do it early because later you go, more people there will be on your holiday pics! We started on 9 am and there was a high traffic on our way back! If you are suitable for a hike of 8km lenght and some easy uphill I will highly recommend this! It is amazing expwrience!
