What travelers are saying

"Love love loved our trip to Madeira. Phillipe the guide was excellent; very personable, knowledgeable, passionate about his island, helpful and fun! 10 out of 10. The group was great fun too, my husband was one of only two men vs 12 / 13 woman which caused a lot of laughs (at his expense). The itinerary was full on which left little time between getting back to the hotels and going out for dinner which was poss the main downside. The hotel in Santana wasn't great but the ones in Porto Moniz and Funchal were much better. As a vegan I struggled in the North of the island but knew that might be the case, I had bread and my own peanut butter for breakfast and bread and hummus at lunch so not ideal. Thankfully Funchal has vegan restaurants and omni restaurants have vegan menus or dishes too so finally ate well. I loved all of the hikes, very varied and all not too far from hotels in the minibus. Loved the levada walks. All walks had steep drop offs so if you're scared of heights - don't do it! I'd highly recommend this trip. We had time in Funchal to do some additional activities and we chose to visit the Palace Gardens, take the downhill sledge from Monte and go on a dolphin watching catamaran trip - all fantastic!"

What travelers are saying

"I've travelled with Intrepid in Vietnam, Morocco, Nepal and Egypt and had a brilliant time every time. The experience is better than most tours as you are in a small group that goes a bit more 'off the beaten track', and you don't get taken to endless shopping opportunites (i.e. a cousin's carpet shop). They also have higher ethics than most travel companies, they contribute to local charities and they avoid animal use (donkeys etc) where possible. The tour leaders we have had have all been wonderful, knowledgable and relaxed, with good english."

What travelers are saying

"I highly recommend using Magic Hills. I started planning my trip in November of 2021 and was communicating with Bronagh as I wanted to do the full Camino Frances. Right from the start I had such a great feeling dealing with Bronagh, She called me from Ireland and we chatted at length about this trip. She really was so informative and I just knew that I could trust her. So I booked the Full Frances Camino right to Finisterre leaving August 29th from SJPP. All of her suggestions, the itinerary were spot on. The accommodations were spectacular. I totally loved the walking every day, meeting up with people, enjoying the scenery, historic buildings it was truly an awesome experience. I met several people who were using other companies and from what I could tell I had the best overall service."
