We had a wonderful day with Nadia, she was very attentive, knowledgeable and considerate of everybody in the group. The walk was challenging, especially in the heat, but there were many opportunities to stop for a break and no sense of rushing so we could go at our own pace. The views are very rewarding and the hike was very memorable. Definitely one to do with a guide if you are wanting to hike up instead of driving.
First, our host, Nadia greeted us warmly. Pickup was on time. She explained everything well on the drive up. She noted all of the best viewers and stopped at perfect moments (when we were exhausted) to give us great history of the area/island. It was a very tough hike at times (for me, 45 y/o male, average fitness). Lots of steep uphill climbs. Ultimately the payoff was at the end. You will be walking in the clouds.
We had an amazing time on this hike! It was a highlight of our trip. Our guide Daria and driver were knowledgeable and organised. Would definitely recommend this experience.

Condition is advantageous :-) We were there in May, and it is advisable to bring a thick jacket, gloves, etc.
Liebe Viola, vielen Dank für Ihre 5-Sterne-Bewertung und Ihren hilfreichen Tipp! Es freut uns sehr, dass Sie die Stairway to Heaven Tour am Pico do Areeiro genossen haben. Die Bedingungen in den Bergen können selbst im Mai überraschend kühl und windig sein, daher ist Ihr Hinweis auf warme Kleidung sicherlich hilfreich für andere Wanderer. Bei Madeira Adventure Kingdom steht die Zufriedenheit unserer Gäste immer an erster Stelle, und wir hoffen, Sie bald wieder zu einem weiteren unvergesslichen Abenteuer auf Madeira begrüßen zu dürfen! 😊⛰️🌿
I award 5 stars because of Martha and the great information she told us. She was very punctual and professional during the hike. With 3 stars I would have rated the sky staircase, as very touristy. It is a pity that you can travel by car to the summit and the sky staircase to be climbed afterwards becomes very touristy. Notwithstanding everything.
Liebe Petra, vielen Dank für deine ehrliche und ausführliche Rückmeldung! Es freut uns sehr, dass du mit Martha so zufrieden warst und ihre Pünktlichkeit, Professionalität sowie die interessanten Informationen während der Wanderung besonders geschätzt hast. Deine lieben Worte geben wir sehr gerne an sie weiter 😊 Wir verstehen auch deinen Eindruck bezüglich des hohen Besucheraufkommens an der „Himmelstreppe“. Gerade diese bekannte Route zieht viele Besucher an, besonders zu bestimmten Tageszeiten. Umso mehr freut es uns, dass du die Wanderung und die Aussicht trotzdem als sehenswert empfunden hast. Bei Madeira Adventure Kingdom steht eure Zufriedenheit immer an erster Stelle, und wir hoffen, dich bei einer unserer anderen, ruhigeren Wanderungen wieder begrüßen zu dürfen! 🌿
Marta was an amazing guide! It was challenging but we stopped along the way for water breaks and to take pictures of the amazing views.
Dear Jacqueline, Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted to hear that Marta made such a positive impression and helped make the hike both enjoyable and manageable. It’s great to know the breaks along the way gave you time to take in the incredible views and fully enjoy the experience. At Madeira Adventure Kingdom, your safety and satisfaction are always our top priorities, and we truly appreciate your kind feedback. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure in Madeira soon! 🌿
I did not know that I could suffer from altitude sickness at Pico de Areeiro, but that is what happened to me :-( I am super sensitive, so I think most people who suffer from altitude sickness do not yet get it here. Unfortunately, I was feeling very dizzy and could not take the trip. I stayed at the café while others (my husband included) took the trip. My husband really enjoyed the trip. Martha was great at taking care of us.
Dear Maarit, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We’re sorry to hear that you weren’t feeling well and couldn’t continue the hike, but we’re glad that Martha was there to take good care of you and that your husband was still able to enjoy the experience and the incredible views. Mountain conditions and altitude can affect everyone differently, and we truly appreciate your openness in sharing this with future travelers. At Madeira Adventure Kingdom, your safety and well-being are always our top priorities. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure in Madeira that feels more comfortable for you! 🌿
For the most part a difficult hike but very rewarding. Ben prepared us well, and stopped regularly to allow us breaks at appropriate stops. Once you arrive at the stairway to heaven, we were able to return at our own pace. Overall, would highly recommend as an experience!
Dear Emma, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you found the hike challenging yet so rewarding — those breathtaking views really do make it all worthwhile. It’s great to know that Ben prepared you well and paced the experience with thoughtful breaks to keep everyone comfortable. At Madeira Adventure Kingdom, your safety and satisfaction are always our top priorities, and your recommendation truly means a lot to us. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure in Madeira! 🌿
