    About this experience

    Experience an hour levada walk and local flavors on a Cider tasting in Camacha town! The trip combines a fantastic walk in the forest, cider tasting and lunch in one of the few orchards in Camacha. You start the tour with a fantastic one hour walk along the enchanting "levadas", irrigation channels built hundreds of years ago. The walk alone is an experience in itself and you can enjoy a pleasant walk in the forest and across the village where apples are grown. Camacha Sideri produces some of the finest cider available in Madeira. You will learn more about how traditional cider is made and you will get 3 tastings, followed by the most delicious lunch served in the restaurant of the estate. Apparently Madeira has been producing Cider for more than 500 years. The juice and cider producer has won a number of awards, both nationally and internationally, because so far no one has ever produced cider this quality in Madeira before.

    Cider your ticks all the boxes Amazing fantastic wow !!!

    Wow amazing had a brilliant experience on this new tour Ana our guide has a wealth of knowledge on everything Madeiran ! The Levada walk was fantastic and we were able to see lots of plants fauna birds etc After the walk we went down the hill for cider tasting and then lunch. The owner of the business talked us through various different ciders and we sampled probably 6 types My favourite was the champagne type but they were all good Only the best apples are used in the production here! We finished with lunch which was fabulous with a charcuterie board tuna broad beans and sausage in a delicious sauce What an experience in such pleasant surroundings

    Response from the operator: Thank you very much for the great review and your feedback. We hope to see you once again :)

    On the Rhythm of a Levada Walk: Madeira cider tasting and lunch: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Funchal.

    How much does On the Rhythm of a Levada Walk: Madeira cider tasting and lunch cost?

    +

    Prices start at $117 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Funchal usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does On the Rhythm of a Levada Walk: Madeira cider tasting and lunch take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Funchal is not rushed.

    Is On the Rhythm of a Levada Walk: Madeira cider tasting and lunch worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Funchal, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule On the Rhythm of a Levada Walk: Madeira cider tasting and lunch?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is On the Rhythm of a Levada Walk: Madeira cider tasting and lunch suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book On the Rhythm of a Levada Walk: Madeira cider tasting and lunch?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Funchal can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Funchal and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does On the Rhythm of a Levada Walk: Madeira cider tasting and lunch start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Funchal within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Funchal?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Funchal experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Jeep Tour Amazing West to Natural Pools -Full-Day, Porto Moniz, Seixal, Fanal Forest, Cliff Skywalk in Open Roof 4X4, West Tour-Fanal Forest & Porto Moniz Natural Pools Small Groups. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Funchal?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Funchal?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
