Canyoning in Madeira, Portugal is a great
sport for all guests of the Aida cruise ships. We promise you a great day trip
to one of the many gorges!
In Madeira there are numerous tours for this great sport, depending on the ability and
knowledge of the guests I choose a suitable canyon. Not far from the port in Funchal
there are several opportunities to experience the hidden nature up close.
I organize the entire excursion, you will receive all the necessary material, we drive together
to the gorge and after the journey I will show you the necessary canyoning techniques.
The incomparable experience includes: jumping, sliding, abseiling and swimming between
high rock faces, a good dose of adrenaline and unparalleled closeness to nature.
I, Michael am your German, English and French speaking ICA and CIC Canyoning Guide.
Enjoy the advantages that I offer you as a German canyoning guide.
I would like to point out that I am not an official contractual partner of Aida Cruises.
When canyoning, we climb through a narrow, water-bearing gorge in the direction of the flow of
the water. We overcome obstacles formed by water over millions of years, such as waterfalls,
crystal-clear natural pools and impassable terrain.
We move running, walking, climbing and abseiling, depending on the tour there is the possibility
of jumps and slides.
Together we experience the otherwise inaccessible nature in an unprecedented way, we are
very close to the element of water and the element of rock. We feel a mixture of action and
calm, one moment the water is pattering on the body and the next we marvel at this mystical
patch of earth.
I install the necessary ropes professionally at anchor points specially provided for this purpose, then you tie yourself in under my guidance, load the canyoning harness, loosen your safety line and then slowly let the rope run through the eight. Your abseiling along the waterfall begins. Sparkling water massages your whole body and soul.
Some of the natural pools are so deep that we can jump the small cliffs. Depending on
courage and circumstances, jumps from a height of up to five meters
are possible but never obligatory. Diving into the turquoise water is unforgettable fun.
You will learn the appropriate jumping techniques during the tour.
Sparkling clean water flows through the gorge between steep rock walls, the eye discovers great colors and the desire to swim in this water grows. This dream comes true with canyoning, experience a unique landscape with me and your Aida fellow travelers. Canyoning has a very high potential for addiction and combines action and relaxation.
To make sure that the transfers from the port of Funchal, i.e. from your cruise ship
and back, do not take up too much vacation time, we at Casa Vento limit our exclusive canyoning
offer to a few tours that are close to the port. You can book these with just one click.
We are happy to explore other canyons with you on request.
