What people love about Active Tours in Portugal
- Walking in Madeira (Christmas)
Very enjoyable, the guide was amazing, well organised and nothing was a problem for him. It was a great trip.
- São Miguel Active Experience
This was an amazing tour! So well organized from start to finish. We were extremely happy with our accommodation and every single one of our daily tours and each tour guide. Nice small groups of max 6-8 people for each tour. I cannot recommend this tour enough.
- Walking in Madeira
The guide Benny was a 5 star plus! His knowledge and leadership was outstanding. Even on the non included meals, he arranged for our dining at great restaurants and often accompanied us. He really introduced us to the culture of Madeira.
