The weather was too... - The weather was too cloudy to view the sunset from pico do areiro so an alternative location was recommended which offered beautiful views. The driver Luis was very accommodating to make sure I got access to great photo opportunities. Overall a great experience!

Beautiful sunset - Very nice everything, we were able to arrive by sunset and see it despite the fog, which still created a unique and beautiful atmosphere. He accompanied us to the parking lot and left time to get there independently to the point where it was allowed (unfortunately a part of the road is closed). The journey did not take long but the experience was beautiful and we thank the driver for the sympathy and chatter during the trip. Recommended

Booked very last minute... - Booked very last minute and was an amazing experience. Luis got us there in plenty of time for a hike and to see the sunset. Let us stay as long as we liked after sunset to see all the beautiful colours. Excellent tour guide as well with lots of recommendations for other activities and restaurants etc.

Great view of the sunset - Lovely sunset hike! We were picked up directly from our hotel and informed of everything via WhatsApp, including recommendations of everything to bring. Weather didn’t look promising on the way up, and Luís even offered alternative routes after checking the webcams. Stuck with it and we were lucky enough to have the clouds clear slightly for the sunset! Luís was very knowledgeable and we got lots of recommendations for restaurants and other things to do in Madeira on the trip
