FAQs

  • Are the levadas safe?

    The routes we use are well maintained. Some have drops, so a head for heights helps; your guide chooses the route on the day.
  • Can I fly in late on day 1?

    Yes, the briefing happens over dinner, so arrive by 18:00.
  • Can I pay in installments or with a deposit?

    It depends on the trip. The "Payment options" shown at checkout list exactly what is available for the departure you picked.
  • What is your cancellation policy?

    This is a demo operator, so no real bookings exist. On a live site this answer would hold your own terms.
