Overview

This 8-hour tour begins with a walk around the pier at Ponta Do Sol, where travelers can enjoy the coastal views and optionally have a coffee. The journey continues to Cascata dos Anjos, known for its natural waterfall that flows over the road, sometimes called a natural car wash. Next, the tour visits Posto Florestal Fanal, a forested area famous for its atmospheric woodland, where the group spends about 45 minutes. The route then follows the North West Coast, passing through Seixal and São Vicente, stopping at Poca Das Lesmas for around 20 minutes. Afterward, the tour reaches Porto Moniz, where guests have two hours to eat lunch (not included) and swim in the volcanic natural swimming pools. The final stop is Cabo Girao, home to Europe’s highest sea cliff and a glass-floored viewing platform, where the group pauses for about 20 minutes before returning. The tour uses a 4x4 off-road vehicle driven by a local guide who leads the visits and scenic stops. Food, drinks, entrance fees, and personal expenses are not included. The guide shares local stories and insights throughout the trip, which covers rugged coastal views, villages, and valleys on Madeira’s west side.
