Customer Reviews

  • Madeira: "Levada" Hiking Trails (Self-guided Tour; Extended Program) reviewer 1
    · July 20th, 2022
    We booked a tour in Madeira with Traventuria. The trails along the ancient irrigation channels and through the cloud forests of Madeira were simply stunning. The flowers were in full bloom. And the vistas from Pico Ruivo above the clouds will be something we will remember forever. The choice of hotels was great. All transfers were on time and the navigation materials we were given never let us down. Definitely one of the best tours we have booked in the past years.
