About
My name is Kiki and I'm here to share my love for the beautiful island of Madeira with you. I got stranded here during a hiking trip and have been in love with the place ever since. My "secret" spots and my passion for this island are just waiting for you to discover. Fabian says I'm funny, easy-going, and always willing to help. I'll let you be the judge of that. 😉 And let me introduce my partner in crime, Fabian. He's a public law graduate, lived in the Ruhr area and Spain, and is always on the go. He shares my love for Madeira and the Azores, and together we want to share our favorite islands with you. Two years ago, we were on a hiking trip and ended up stranded on Madeira. We decided to make the best of it and ended up sleeping in our garage while building the ultimate home office - Madeira. And now, we want to show you everything this island has to offer and make your trip one to remember. We know you have questions, like "What kind of trip are you offering?", "What's included in the price?", "How do I book?" Don't worry, we got you covered!

‘LAST SPOT!!!Madeira SPECIAL ADVENTURE - a one-of-a-kind hiking adventure in Madeira. Explore the island's trails and discover hidden paths off the beaten track.’, Jul 20235/5
Madeira 01.07-08.07.2023 On our trip Kiki was not with us, because she unfortunately did not get time off. Accordingly, my evaluation refers to Figo and the trip itself of course. About the accommodation: The accommodation is located in a quiet location about 15-20 minutes from the airport. 3 bathrooms and 2 separate WC's. Accommodation is large, spacious and clean. Towels are available. Everything was there what was needed. Organization & Hikes: The trip was very well organized and structured, but without losing flexibility. "Off the beaten track" was kept word. We saw almost no tourists on our hikes. As an Austrian, I have hiking experience, but since we were off the beaten path, we did a lot of climbing (no experience necessary) - which was a whole new challenge for me. Although I was not particularly skilled at it, I enjoyed incredibly! Our guide, Marcio, said at the beginning that we were a group and would adjust according to fitness levels. We also had different fitness levels in the group. Someone who wants to run up the mountain is probably wrong - as is someone who doesn't want to run 2 meters. It was a good mix of rest and relax and athletic exertion. The hikes are multi-faceted, incredibly scenic. Figo & Marcio (Guide) You could tell how much work, effort and heart and soul went into the hiking week on the part of Figo and Marcio. Although Figo is constantly dealing with new people and new groups, I never once had the feeling of being some tourist who was being dispatched. Here, of course, we benefited from the fact that Figo himself lives on the island. He had tips for everything, sent links and made recommendations. He was open to requests and always tried (without seeming strained) to please the group. In addition, Figo acted as the group's photographer for the entire week. Thus, everyone had received beautiful souvenir photos of the group, the country and themselves. Thanks again for that! The group consisted of 9 Iphone owners and me (haha). The photos were shared via AirDrop, moreover Figo then sent a link in the Whatsapp group that I also had the photos and videos in great quality. In my opinion, Figo was incredibly eager and did it absolutely perfectly. In addition, he is also a pleasant and sympathetic person. The group: A good organization + a beautiful country are good conditions for a great vacation. However, a big factor is also the people who participate in the trip. Everyone himself contributes to whether the vacation will be great or unforgettable. The participants in my group consisted of very open, outgoing, loving people. Two joined a day later and were also integrated immediately. Some went to sleep earlier, others stayed up late. The next day we were always one unit. We motivated each other, laughed a lot, and yes...drank a lot too. In fact, "traveling-with-foreigners" became "traveling-with-friends". I can really recommend this adventure vacation. I had an incredibly great time that I will definitely never forget. Should Figo plan the Azores trip again, I will be there too (always these threats at the end :-) ). So Figo: up on! And of course THANK YOU!

Kiki's girl strip was incredibly great! Kiki is super friendly and open-minded, she was always anxious to implement the wishes of 4 (!) Girls. The organization was very good, but always flexible :-). Kiki is very passionate about (EVERYTHING concerning Madeira) and is really the very best tour guide!!!! Hopefully we will have the opportunity to make a trip with you again in the future dear Kiki! Thank you for this great vacation! I am very happy to meet you :-).

Thank you so much, dear Kiki, for this wonderful girls' vacation! I can only agree with Gina. I couldn't have imagined my first vacation "alone" any better. Your ideas/suggestions for activities, restaurants & poncha bars ;) as well as the entire organization & communication were simply great and gave me the feeling of an all-round carefree package! Also thanks to your absolutely lovely and open-minded nature, I look back on the vacation with great satisfaction and positivity. Girls, it was great with you & I will cherish the memories of Madeira & you for a long time to come! <3 Conclusion: I would travel with Kiki again at any time! :)
