Customer Reviews
- David· July 28th, 2025Loved the trip! Siri, the tour guide was awesome. Extremely knowledgeable and there for us with whatever we needed. Gave us tons of suggestions of things to do. Price was right- saw everything we needed to, and got a true taste of Portugal.Show more
- Oceane· July 13th, 2025I had an absolutely wonderful week enjoying Maderia's nature and culture. Joao was an incredible guide - so knowledgeable, accommodating, kind and patient the entire week. All the walks were beautiful and there was a nice balance of physical activity and down time. I felt very comfortable as a female solo traveler and really enjoyed the time we spent in nature. Two things to note - the airport transfers are included; however, I waited over an hour when I arrived only to realize that I had to wait for other group members to land. It would have been appreciated if this was communicated to me beforehand. Explore responded immediately via WhatsApp but failed to mention that I would need to wait for as long as I did. Secondly, Hotel do Carmo (the last hotel we stayed in) is undergoing extensive construction which iwas incredibly loud (throughout the entire day). Overall, I would highly recommend, especially if you can get Joao as your guide!Show more
- Theresa· June 17th, 2025It was a blast with amazing people and beautiful scenery on a bike. It was a trip we'll always remember!Show more
