Would do it again and again! - It was the best excursions I have ever done. Was the first time I jumped from a cliff! The instructors were very helpful and always gave you an alternative if you didn’t want to do the “scary” stuff. I did of course but not everyone wanted to and they did not chassis them for it. Great communication and sooo fun!

Water you waiting for? 10/10 - Amazing first experience, the guides brought so much energy that I’m pretty sure they’re secretly powered by waterfalls. They were fun, upbeat, and made everyone feel safe while still keeping the adventure exciting. Would deffo do again!

Wow! Have FUN, you’re in great hands! - Highlight of an amazing trip to Madeira! My husband really wanted to do this, but I was a little scared. Upon meeting our amazing guides - Peter and Pedro - I instantly felt at ease. The guides really know what they are doing with the sport, know the canyons like the back of your hand, and are so skilled at making you feel confident and making sure you are safe! (It IS a thrilling adventure, so they will gently push you too but only the way you need!) If you are in good shape but a little scared, I would highly encourage you to go for it! You get to see views of the island that are inaccessible otherwise, and the adventure is SO much fun! We did one other canyoning excursion with belocalmadeira (also highly recommended!) in Nuns Valley, which was a great warm up for Ribeira Funda which takes you right into a serious waterfall for your first rappel. (In my opinion, the only reason you need to do a level 2 canyon first is to get your confidence and comfort up first). Belocalmadeira also handles everything you need other than your swimsuit, they are incredibly organized and well-equipped, and great communicators. I can’t speak highly enough of our guides either! Go for it!

In great hands. Even MORE fun than expected! - What an absolutely AMAZING adventure! This excursion was my husband’s idea and I was quite nervous seeing the pictures that I would be too scared. However, I immediately felt in good hands upon meeting our amazing guides - Peter & Pedro, who had ample experience and knew how to make me feel confident and safe while taking us through some high-adrenaline experiences. This is such a thrill of an excursion, with views of the island you absolutely cannot get any other way. They even took great photos of us! We did have (also a WONDERFUL) experience with one other belocalmadeira canyoneering excursion in Nun’s valley prior to this excursion, which if you’re in good shape shouldn’t be a necessary prerequisite except this excursion gets you immediately into an intense waterfall rappel so for confidence (and a great time) is a good idea. If you’re just a little nervous about your own bravery but the pictures intrigue you, I say GO FOR IT! It will be even more fun than you’re expecting!

Amzingly amazing - I did canyoning in Curral das Freiras and it was absolutely amazing! The water was so cold it woke me up instantly — no coffee needed. 😅 The guides were fantastic, super funny and full of energy, always keeping the group laughing while doing some crazy jumps that I watched and thought, “yeah, not doing that!” Between the cold water, the adrenaline, and all the laughs, it was an experience totally worth repeating.
