Review of Madeira’s PR8 Ponta São Lourenço hike transfer, with route details, costs, timing, crowd tips, safety advice, and who should book.

“Great views and worth going prior to sunset. The crowds pick up after 9am. The hike can be completed in much less time than allotted though they plan for you to possibly go swimming, eat, etc. My tip is to start hiking as soon as you have light to avoid the traffic jams on the trails.”
