Discover a different Madeira.

Hikes guided by someone who knows the island on foot.

The guide

Meet Vítor Serrão

Founder of Lost In Madeira and certified local guide. The company grew out of more than three years exploring the island on foot, away from the busiest trails.

He has walked more than 280 routes — levadas, trails, forests, tunnels and waterfalls — and chooses each hike with couples and experienced walkers in mind. Before every outing, he checks the weather and the condition of the trails.

Hikes are private and in small groups, to keep the experience personal, with a comfortable pace and room to adapt the day to the trail conditions and to the people walking with us.

Along the way he shares not only the path but also the context of the island: the levadas, the forests, the mountain areas and the small details that help you understand Madeira better.
