- Accurate, easy to follow and inspiring
This is an essential book for walking in Madeira. We liked the style of the descriptions and were impressed by the accuracy - no getting lost! The range of walks was useful, with choices of walks of varying difficulty and length etc. We would heartily recommend this to anyone wanting to walk on the island, newcomers and returning visitors alike.

- Less is More
An over fussy guide which more often than not manages to miss the wood for the trees and manages to not include some of the best walks on Madeira! Don't bother - the Rother guide may be imperfect but its much more useful.

- no problems on the routes we walked
We used Walk Madeira and the Tour & Trail Map during our two week break in November. Everything worked fine on the ten routes we walked, directions were clear and accurate.

- Walk Madeira
I don't think the directions in this book are as clear as the authors would have you believe, despite a couple of pages that pick holes in other walking guide publications. We found it very hard to follow some of the routes particularly in urban areas where levadas went across roads or went underground for sections. The ideas for the walks are good, the spiral bound format is good. Its just the holes in the directions that let it down for us. We found the Sunflower Books 'Madeira car Tours and Walks' better. We have kept that for our next visit and binned the Walk Madeira.
