Tour of Eastern Madeira


Secret Madeira Lda


Enjoy the high eastern majestic mountains of Arieiro, the green valleys, old centenary trees and waterfalls. See fruit and veggie terraces, old thatched houses and sugarcane fields, and the peninsula.


Ponta De São Lourenço



Start with pick-up from the hotel and drive through Funchal's steep roads. Pass the Eucalyptus and Mimosa forests overlooking the Christmas pines, into the breathtaking mountains of Pico do Arieiro at 1,800 meters.
The centenary Forest covered by the old trees (Laurisilva) is a must and a short walk along the Levada Madeiras water channels can be taken as an option. Taking the old road of Faial overlooking the eagles rock mountain, Stop at the Guindaste Skywalk
(This stop will depend on the traffic and the feasts in the village.)
Santana will be the next stop. Visit the town's traditional thatched houses and vines. Make a stop for lunch (not included in the price).
After the lunch stop in Santana, continue to Porto Cruz, passing the sugar cane fields. Visit the only steam rum factory in Europe (with rum tasting) and explore the village. See the rough black sandy beach popular for surfers. In July and August, enjoy the chance to swim in the famous saltwater.
Then, travel along the North Coast where sugar cane terraces are still visible. See the old capital of Madeira, Machico, where the first Portuguese settlers arrived in the 15th century, before heading to Ponta de São Lourenço, the eastern point cape of the island. Dragon Back
The tour ends with a drop-off at your hotel.
