One of the best things we did in Madeira! Canyoning was so much fun and the views were amazing. You get to walk in the river, jump to the natural pool, slide down natural slides and abseiling. The instructors were very skilled, patient and fun. The photos you get is also a nice touch and a great memory to look back on. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to do something fun and exciting in Madeira!

This was definitely the highlight of our trip! We had an absolute blast. Physically challenging, but worth the effort. Our guides Lobo and Jaoa were terrific, always felt completely safe and they were very patient with everyone. All the gear you need is included. They transported our personal bags to the end of the canyon, so no need for waterproof containers. Bring a go pro if you have one. Highly recommend if you want a little adventure!
Andre and Ricardo made our experience so much more fun we loved it! Thank you for a great first experience!
Great experience for someone with no experience. I want to do intermediate now! The guides were fun but always kept our safety in mind. One of my favorite things experiences in Maderia! Don’t miss it!
The experience was very exciting overall. We had a lot of fun, the guides were nice. They took many pictures of us and gave us a little snack, it was really pleasant overall.
What I didn't particularly like was that it felt a bit rushed, I would've liked a slower pace, maybe because it was my first time and I was a little cautious, but also because I would've like to have more time to admire the surroundings.
I also didn't know that there were spots were the water was quite deep, and even if you could avoid them or get help help to cross them, I would've like to be aware of that before booking, as someone who doesn't know how to swim very well.
But overall we loved it, it was fun and challenging, but the difficulty level was fine, even for a first experience of that kind.
Wow.... what a fantastic way to spend a morning!! Andrei (PH) and Doug were awesome guides and my adults kids/I loved the entire experience. Great exercise and we all enjoyed jumping into the water!
What a great trip. Guides Andre and Marco were confident, funny and supportive. Emphasis safety was great. Great way to experience the inland area of Madeira.
We had an amazing time canyoning with this crew. Our guides were amazing, they made sure we had an amazing time, could keep up, and that we had photos!
Great time!!! Guides were kind and experienced. One of the top 10 activities I have participated in my lifetime.
An all around great experience for our entire family, most of whom were canyoning for the first time. Andre and Joao were fantastic guides, patiently explaining each obstacle, adjusting their support to meet each participant's comfort level, using humor to keep things light, and taking great pictures to help us remember the event. The chocolate and water break in the middle of the experience was an especially welcome surprise. Absolutely put this on your list of adventures while in Madeira!
An absolutely thrilling experience. Pushes all boundaries of fitness and adrenaline. Excellent guides, very patient, knowledgeable and safety was always 1st. Made the day fun. Would recommend this trip
We wanted to try something new and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! The safety equipment, wet suit and boots were provided as well as a snack and some water. The guides/instructors were great and I would recommend Harmony in Nature for my friends and family :)
We had a great time!! Our guides were great!! We had a lot of fun and felt safe the entire time. Would do again!
Really lovely, we enjoyed it. Tour guide was very helpful and knows what he’s doing. Very friendly. Didn’t get to catch the names of the two guys but there were nice people
Super fun. Pedro and Duarte were great guides. Get ready to get a good workout in. Would recommend..
Went with 11 year old, 15 year old and 45 year old and all loved it. Also good service when I contacted them with a query before the activity.
What an amazing experience! Canyoning for the first time in a scenic spot with the expert guidance from Pedro and his team has been a fantastic experience! I would certainly do it again. Such a caring and skillful guidance with such kindness by the team to celebrate a participant's birthday with a cake was touching! Thanks to Pedro and his team. Looking forward to the photographs taken during canyoning!
We LOVED the experience, it is a great way to explore Madeira differently! Pedro was an amazing guide and made everyone feel safe! We strongly recommend :)
Amazing group activity! Lot of fun & very safe. Approximately 2 hours. Instructors very good and helpful.

Brilliant Experience. Our guides were friendly and made us feel at ease. Jumping into pools, abseiling and hiking with beautiful views. Fantastic addition to the holiday in Madeira
What an amazing adventure! It was my first time canyoning. I am 57 years old and my husband is 60. We LOVED it! Pedro and Nuno was excellent guides and made me feel very safe and comfortable through out the trip. I look forward to coming back with my adult children and doing again.
We had an excellent time canyoning through the mountains of Madeira with Duarte, our guide, and his team. It was a very professional experience as we went down several cliffs, including a large 20 meter cliff down the side of a waterfall. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to experience the nature of Madeira.
An incredible experience! We went canyoning in Madeira and absolutely loved it from start to finish. Everything was very well organized, we felt safe the whole time while having so much fun, and the landscapes are breathtaking. The manager and the whole team were very friendly, professional, and made us feel comfortable, even as beginners. We enjoyed every moment — from the jumps to the rappelling and exploring nature. We highly recommend it! Thank you for this unforgettable adventure.
This was so fun! Went with kids and had such a fun morning adventure! Beautiful scenery and amazing guides.
We did this with our family. It was such a great experience. The guides were so patient and helpful. We went at our pace and had the best time. I highly recommend when visiting Madeira!
Booked this trip through a recommendation. An excellent adventure from start to finish, and great for a first time experience 👏👏👏
It was a great experience. I will definitely recommend this adventures activity.
We had two very good and experienced guides..
Thank you for a great time
This was our first time canyoning and we had the best time. We've done Via Ferratas before with rapelling, but not in a river like this before.
A lot of it was similar to just scrambling through a river, but the rappels down waterfalls and jumps were the best part.
Our guides were great and made sure everyone was safe.
We had the best experience, and I definitely recommend it. I would do it again next time.
We were just a small group and our guides Daniel and Nuno were excellent. The offered a convenient pickup just outside the cruise port. Very knowledgeable and made us feel safe and at ease all the time. Easier than expected if you follow the rules. Our guide Daniel was very knowledgeable about the island and loved to answer our questions. They also took many pictures that you can then download from a link.
Thank you guys 😊
