  went with my girlfriend and we had great time, highly recommend this experience!
We got to the starting point and met our guides Fillipe and Martin after puting on the... read more equipment we drove up to the beginning of the trail.
The trail was super fun not super challenging but with some more scary jumbs and drops on parts.
Fillipe and Martin are very experienced and funy took care of everything, even taking photos during the activity and sending us the photos after.

  Although we had done canyoning before, we accidentally booked the beginners experience, and we were a bit worried that it might not be challenging enough, especially for our 15 and... read more 18 year old sons. Also, the group consisted of about 16 people, and we prepared ourselves for a lot of waiting.
However, once we got underway, we were pleasantly surprised - although the course was not super challenging, it was far from boring, and we had a lot of fun. Also, the guides worked together very efficiently, so that the group could keep moving for most of the course.
But what really made it go from good to awesome was the interaction with our guides, Beto, Filipe and Jerome. They were very clear with their instructions, taking safety very seriously, but also constantly joking around, chatting with everyone, playful with the kids but just as much with the adults in the group. If anyone was scared to do something, they would encourage and help, but there was usually also an easier way of doing something, and they never forced it.
We would all highly recommend this tour, big kudos and thank you to the guides for making it awesome!!

  If there was an option for 10 stars we would

The pick up was prompt and the journey was luxurious in a Mercedes van. Both Sandro and Filipe... read more were friendly and funny!

The journey up took about 30 minutes, when we got there we got changed in to our kit and got back in the van to the start. Definitely wear swimwear under your clothes for a quick and easy change.

We were shown how to use the ropes and we began. Even though this was the beginner option it was not slow or overloaded with instructions. We were explained how to keep ourselves safe and most importantly enjoy the experience.

The first waterfall decent was compulsory and a great way to build confidence. The first part of the route was 'more walking' but we didn't notice as it was still full of jumps and abseils.

The second part was more action packed, with slides, jumps and consecutive abseils. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience and the two guides made it exceptional. They were very laid back and kept us all laughing in many different ways.

They showed us how to jump in to the pools to ensure we felt safe enough to go for it. There was another trip ahead of us and the one time we saw them on the waterfall they did not seem to be having as much fun as we were!!!

I would 100% recommend this company, not just for the journey, equipment or location but the two guides who made our day perfect. My only regret, we didn't do this sooner on our trip. If we could, we would go again tomorrow.

They also took photos throughout and emailed them to us within 4 hours of the trip finishing. They made sure to capture everyone's enjoyment and have meant we have lovely memories to look back on.

Thank you Sandro and Filipe, we appreciate your hard work to make sure we had a great time.

If we come back to madeira, we will be seeing you both again. Love, Diba and Danni

  It was amazing trip. Big thank you to Cisar - our guide. One of the best guide I've ever met! Very kind, helpful and funny person with big knowledge and... read more good English. We felt taken care of by him very very well especially our little one year old daughter. The trip was great, we saw many beautiful places, views. Even lunch on the trip was tasty. Trip full of advantages, without any disadvantages. I highly recommend it to everyone!!! ♡

  I booked and paid for a sunrise tour on August 26, 2022. I received an email confirmation of my payment but nothing else about pick-up time or location. I called... read more the tour operator to ensure I was confirmed for the tour (scheduled on September 3, 2022). I was reassured that my booking was confirmed. I asked about the pick-up time but was told I’ll receive information the day before the tour starts. I got a phone call the day prior to the tour informing me that the tour was canceled due to not enough participants. Canceling my tour the day before it starts is a big inconvenience because I’m on holiday for one week on this island, and one day is such short notice (and impossible) for me to book another tour. Very frustrated!

  Amazong day with an amazing guide. Perfect mood, experiences and places. Thanks to Cisar, Madeira is unforgettable for me

  My mom and I spent 2 days with Discovery Island. We went for 2 jeep tours with César as a driver and a guide. César did a great job showing... read more us Madeira, giving us interesting information about places we saw and Madeira's culture overall. He also answered all of the questions we had during the tours. The tours themselves were full of beautiful places that everyone should see while visiting Madeira. I definitely recommend the jeep tours!

  I have visited Madeira numerous times, and done canyoning and coasterring with discovery island which were brilliant and I couldn't fault it. So this year I decided to go kayaking... read more with my son. Different experience as the we were put with another company Madeira Sea Emotions. The instructor did not introduce himself or bother to know our names. The info during the trip was limited, we had a rough beach landing where I injured my shin and then the staff disappeared and left us to work out which boat to catch back to the Marina. I've tried to complain to Discovery Island about this but they have failed to respond. Won't be using them again!

  we had a great day full of fun, and guides very helpful. would recommend to everyone, plenty of laughs and enjoyable people
