My daughter (aged 10) and I loved this walk. It was a chance to see the island in a different way and have a bit of peace from the busy hotel and city. We learnt so much from Louisa, our guide, who talked us through the plants and history of the island. The walk was just the right length for us and the cafe afterwards was lovely. The communication from the company beforehand was great. A wonderful experience and one of the highlights of our holiday, thank you.

A nice walk

pelau, Aug 2023

It was a very nice and very easy walk. We saw nice mountains, villages and levadas. We had a very good guide.

Levada walk cut short!

Ferol_G, Jun 2023

Loved the levada. However, the walk was cut short by a road race and the alternate route was more challenging than we expected. The guide was entertaining but not all that attentive to the clients.
