Overview

depart in a 4x4 vehicle driven by an experienced guide. Explore the northwest side of Madeira and learn about local traditions, culture and history as you encounter the natural wonders of the region.
Taste local food and drinks like poncha and swim in the natural seaside, volcanic lava pools in Porto Moniz. Go for an easy 25-minute walk along a levada and learn about the unique aqueduct system that continues to supply the island with water and produce energy today.

See the fauna and flora of the Fanal Forest, including the endemic trees, some over 1000 years old.
