I had a very enjoyable hike and tour with Tour Guide, "Ruby." Ruby was excellent! She was friendly, funny, attentive, with a passion for her island and willing to share her knowledge. Our Driver was also excellent. I certainly recommend this Hike/Tour.
Great tour and a great guide Benny - nice people to walk with as well - the Lavada walk was excellent and Benny was so informative
Ich hatte einen tollen Tag mit Benny als Guide in einer mittelgroßen Gruppe mit 12 Leuten. Die Wanderung verlief größtenteils entlang der Levada und ist als einfach zu bezeichnen. Es gibt tolle Ausblicke und wunderschöne Wegpassagen.
Einzig der Platz für das picnic war nicht so schön und der Aspekt, dass man überwiegend hintereinander her in einer Art Kolonne läuft finde ich einfach nicht ganz so toll. Benny hat viel erklärt und man merkt, dass er die Insel liebt.
