A Great Time

5.00Excellent experience. Our guides, Edgar and Diego, were very knowledgable, helpful and friendly. Canyoning was really fun and you can experience another beautiful part of Madeira away from the city and coast.
Canyoning level 1 with kids.

5.00Great fun. Went with my two children (7 and 9) on a level 1 trip. They had a fantastic time even if they got a bit cold by the end. Daniel was very friendly and made us feel safe at all times (putting on an extra guide because of the young ages of the kids). Our youngest had to be carried by Daniel lika a sack of potatoes down one part, but otherwise they were able to do all themselves.
Excellent guide

An exhilarating, thrilling and at times challenging experience in stunning surroundings. Just do it! And I highly recommend Go Canyoning Madeira. Communication was excellent after booking.

5.00Our instructor Daniel was amazing! He made us feel very safe and prepared as it was our first time. He is also great fun and kept us entertained. The views are incredible and it gives a different perspective of the nature in Madeira. We will 100% be coming back for a level 2 and maybe even a 3 when we come back to Madeira!! Thank you to Daniel for making the tour such a great experience and one of the best things we did while in Madeira!
Now addicted to canyoning

5.00We drove up to the Mirador by car, which was already the first adventure ;) Daniel then picked us up and equipped us with equipment, then gave very precise instructions, so that we could walk well and safely through the canyon even as absolute beginners. It was a great kick and after one of us had a slight fear of heights, it was also a great challenge, but it was feasible. The water from the canyon was very cold, but even as a big frostbulge due to the many distractions and adrenaline not so wild. We are already thinking about following up with Level 2 😺
Best experience of our trip

5.00The booking and communication were very easy and friendly. Pickup was punctual and we reached the starting point within half an hour. Our guide, Daniel, was very approachable and attentive to each of us individually. The tour was super fun, and even as total beginners, we didn't have any major problems because everything was explained very well. It was still a challenge, though. If we're ever back in Madeira, we'll definitely book another tour. Thank you for the fantastic experience!
