Nice hike to see the waterfall

asma_a, May 2024

Amazing hike to see waterfalls and great scenery A must if you visit Madeira to enjoy the views with great guide

A great experience

Claire_W, Jul 2022

We had a really great trip with David from Up the mountain, with our two kids (16 and 19). He was really knowledgeable and friendly and knew exactly how to avoid the crowds. Numbers limited so you will get a good experience. The waterfalls and scenery were beautiful and the walk itself was mostly ok with a few harder climbs on steps. I would really recommend this walk and company.
