I can recommend CEM with a pleasure for everyone interested in riding! I have had a long break from riding and got a suggestion to try it at CEM again after many years. I took 3 private lessons from Iisa and that was definitely the highlight of my 2 week holiday in Madeira. Iisa is a very professional instructor. She is very patient, supportive and clearly enjoys her job. What made me very happy was that the horses were very well taken care of, the stable and the surroundings were clean. The stable is only about 20minutes from Funchal, so very easy to go to!

If you want to see the island in a different way this is it. Horse back riding and enjoying the stunning views at the same time, it couldn't get any better! We took a 2h tour and our guide was Bruno. He was really kind and sweet and had a great knowledge about the plants, flowers, trees and places that we saw and visited on the tour. The horses are healthy and well taken care of and best of all, they have horses for all type of riders????

The sense of freedom you get by ridding a horse, is amazing. When you add an amazing view, near the river, you feel that the world is a wonderfull, peaceful place. Plus, Abrigo D'Aventura has another feature that makes of it amazing because all the animals are rescued and have an amazing history, so you are actually helping Daniel that takes care of all of them with an amazing care and knowledge.

This was a fantastic experience from beginning to end!! I wish I didn't have to leave, because this was truly special. The horses are amazing and very well taken care of. I learned a lot from Carlos and from those smart horses. He has trained each horse of the herd, knows each of them by heart. I had many questions, because I was so impressed at how well the horses carry themselves and respond to slight leg signals. They are smart and well trained for the trails, they do not panic or follow each other without paying attention. On top of this, the landscape is beautiful, the food amazing, and everyone I met was so welcoming, starting with Carlos! I cannot recommend it more, I seriously felt like staying for good :).
