Madeira Trip Planning for Hikers
Experience more than the same few Madeira hikes
I see it all the time: hiking enthusiasts come to Madeira excited to experience the island’s incredible nature, only to find themselves following the same few trails as everyone else – often missing the sense of nature and solitude they came here for.
Having hiked all of Madeira’s official PR trails and many lesser-known routes myself, I know which trails are worth the hype, where to escape the crowds and how things change with the seasons.
Whether you want me to plan your Madeira trip for you or simply want a second opinion on the itinerary you’ve already created, I’ll help you make the most of your time on the island.
How can I Help you?
Personalized Madeira Itineraries for Hikers
You want me to plan your trip for you.
I’ll create a personalized, day-by-day Madeira itinerary based on your travel dates, hiking experience, interests and preferred pace.
Hiking might be at the heart of your trip, but you don’t have to hike every day. I’ll also include sightseeing, scenic drives, beaches, restaurants, rest days and bad-weather alternatives to create a trip that feels balanced and realistic.

Madeira Itinerary Review
You’ve already planned your trip – but you’d like a second opinion.
Send me your existing Madeira itinerary and I’ll review your hiking choices, activities, timing and overall flow before we meet for a 45-minute personal review call.
We’ll talk through what you’ve planned, what I would keep and anything I would change, swap or reconsider. After our call, I’ll send you my 3–4 most important recommendations in writing.

Why plan your trip with me?
I live on Madeira and spend a lot of my time exploring the island on foot. I’ve hiked all of Madeira’s official PR trails, along with many lesser-known routes beyond them.
But choosing a good hike isn’t just about finding a trail with nice views.
I consider things like crowds, season, difficulty, driving distances, weather and how different areas of the island fit together – all the little details that can make a big difference once you’re actually here.
My goal isn’t to fit as much as possible into your holiday. It’s to help you plan a Madeira trip that actually suits you.
Not sure which option is right for you?
Choose the Personalized Madeira Itinerary if…
You want help planning your trip from scratch, aren’t sure which hikes and areas to prioritize, or simply don’t want to spend hours researching and organizing everything yourself.
Choose the Itinerary Review if…
You already have a fairly complete day-by-day plan and mainly want someone who knows Madeira to check your choices, point out potential problems and answer your questions. This is a review of an existing itinerary rather than a complete planning service. It does not include creating or rewriting a day-by-day itinerary.
Good to know
Both services are focused on travel planning and recommendations. I can recommend hikes, accommodation areas, restaurants, activities, rental-car options and other services, but I don’t make bookings or reservations on your behalf.
You remain in control of your trip – I just help you make better-informed choices.
