    Reliable and worthy transfer tour in Madeira

    Abhishek_S, Oct 2026
    I had an amazing hiking experience to the 25 Fontes thanks to the amazing driver Luis from Hiking Transfers. The one thing that I liked the most about this tour is his commitment towards his job. On the day of my tour, I was the only one who booked the tour but yet he did not cancel my tour due to low participation, which most of the other tour operators would have done. He arrived on time and kept me engaged throughout the transfer by sharing his knowledge about Madeira history, the local foods and best things to do in my trip. He explained all the hike details with the entire trail map on my mobile of both the hikes and was ready to wait for 5 hours for my return so that I could enjoy the hike. Will definitely go with him again when I come to Madeira next time.

    Luis was very informative...

    Luis was very informative and helpful in getting our passes. Amazing value if your doing the 25 fontes hike as it's a easy enough route and you are given plenty of time

    Unforgettable hike in Madeira. Louis went above and beyond.

    Due to a last-minute plan change, we booked this tour just one day in advance and we were lucky to find Louis at a great price. He was super nice with a great sense of humour, and it never felt like he was just driving us to the destination. Even though it was a self-guided tour, he explained the trail clearly and gave excellent advice. On the way back, he recommended great restaurants, beautiful sunset spots, and even took us to a stunning mirador without us having to ask that's truly going the extra mile. He happily shared lots of interesting information about Madeira the whole time. We had a wonderful hike, the best recommendations, and memories that will stay with us forever. I will definitely contact Louis again if I return to Madeira someday.
