Details
Our canyoning in Madeira for beginners and families will surely capture your heart. Madeira is one of the most renowned places in Portugal for canyoning, thanks to its unique landscapes, incredible waterfalls, and natural rock formations. Join us in Madeira to learn the basics of canyoning! This activity is perfect for beginners, as both kids and adults can enjoy it. The green canyon hidden in the middle of the valley has something for everyone because all obstacles can be avoided. During the entire trip, you will be accompanied by one of our certified guides who possess extensive knowledge of the region.Tour programme- Preparation
We meet at our shop in Caniço, at the booked time. If you are arriving by car, you will find both free and paid parking spaces available, in front of our store. We will then travel together to the canyon in one of our minibuses. After a short walk through a rural area, we will reach the starting point, and our adventure will begin. You can leave your personal belongings either at our shop or in the minibus to keep them safe while you explore the canyon. Once everyone is equipped with our high-quality gear, we will be ready to proceed.
- Tour
To ensure everyone starts with confidence, we will provide a brief safety briefing before reaching a distinctive tree, which will serve as our starting point. Within the canyon, you will be treated to numerous breathtaking sights. We will encounter four different rappels at varying altitudes (the highest being 17 meters), as well as small jumps and waterslides. However, there is no need to worry, as nothing is compulsory, and alternative routes are available if needed.
- Return
After our thrilling canyoning experience, we will walk during 15 minutes through ancient terraces to reach the minibus. Along the way, we will have the opportunity to reminisce about these unforgettable memories as we make our leisurely return to our shop.Tour facts

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with LokoLoko Canyoning and cannot recommend this team highly enough!
Our three guides were exceptional from start to finish. They were incredibly friendly, patient, and supportive throughout the entire tour. Every step was explained clearly, making everyone feel safe and confident, regardless of their experience level.
What impressed us the most was how wonderfully they interacted with our children. Whenever they felt nervous about a jump, one of the guides would jump together with them, giving them the confidence they needed to overcome their fears. Their kindness, encouragement, and genuine care made the experience unforgettable for our whole family.
The professionalism, enthusiasm, and positive energy of the entire team turned this adventure into one of the highlights of our trip to Madeira.
If you’re considering a canyoning tour, don’t hesitate—LokoLoko is the company to choose. An outstanding team that deserves nothing less than a full 5-star recommendation!

Great tour for beginners, fantastic guides. We had a lot of fun, and it was a bit daunting for me from the start. But I always felt very confident. Good explanations beforehand. The only downside was that we had booked a German tour, as my English isn't that good, but it ended up being in English. But the tour still deserves 5 stars 🌟. Everything was great.
