Fantastic, exhilarating and enjoyable - Really great hike, not too difficult for those who are moderately active. Martha was fantastic super motivated and made the hike enjoyable. It took around 2.5 hours and we had around 30 minutes to see the water fall. Luckily we went off peak and the views were fantastic. Martha explained things incredibly well along the hike! Carlos was fantastic tooo

Marta was a great guide! - This was a beautiful hike led by Marta. She was an incredible guide and was able to manage a large group with many different levels of abilities. The hike is pretty easy for those who walk often. I would definitely book again!

Great walk - Great walk with a great guide (Ruben). Without a guide it would have been easy to go off track, as there were alternative routes crossing (signs were available, however). It was comforting to have a guide to point to where we were going. Great drive to and from the levada. Felt safe with driver Miguel. The roads are quite steep so I wouldn’t want to drive myself.

Great - The trip was amazing, our guide was amazing as well. The 25 fountains stop is disappointing, too many influencers occupy the place for photoshoots. Other stops and views are really beautiful so its worth it.

Great day out! - Samuel was a very informative guide. Our group had several age ranges and he made sure everyone was included and looked after. From when we were picked up to the end of the day our guide was imparting his knowledge of the island to us all.

Lovely levada walk - Very busy but a very fun hike. Highly recommend! Lovely cafe near the start. Waterfalls are popular and get very busy however we still really enjoyed ourselves.

Top notch! - I walked 25 fontes route and the new Stairway to Heaven route on different days. Both fantastic. Really, really excellent guides shared plenty of knowledge along the way. I particularly enjoyed the Stairway to Heaven for the vistas above the cloud lines across incredible peaks. As well as these two hikes, I took a sunset catamaran trip, a jeep tour and a mini bus tour. All activities were well organised and all communication at the organising stage when I had questions, and during when a change needed to be made the day before, was efficient and super friendly. All in all, Madeira Adventure Kingdom helped maximise the enjoyment and fun of my island holiday. I recommend highly.
