Amazing day out

We had a fantastic day out with Craters of Fire tour. The guide is very knowledgeable. It was a real adventure, some of the steep roads are not for the faint-hearted. The views are breathtaking and it's a trip we will always remember. Thank you to This is Madeira Island for the recommendation ;)
