Overview
From Funchal we go uphill to Pico do Arieiro at 1818 mts, enjoying amazing landscapes and great views over Ponta de So Loureno, Pal da Serra, Curral das Freiras and even Porto Santo, if there is good weather. Then, heading to the north side of the island, we will pass through Ribeiro Frio, surrounded by Laurissilva Forest (classified as World Heritage by UNESCO), other exotic species and beautiful evergreen mountains; involving us in a peaceful environment. Continuing, we will experience a nice off-road toward one of the most emblematic towns in the island, Santana the Biosphere Reserve, known by its triangular houses, which served locals for centuries as dwellings and stables. After a lunch stop (not included), we will visit a very traditional Rum Distillery in Porto da Cruz. Finally, we will stop at Pico do Facho viewpoint, to enjoy amazing views over Ponta de So Loureno and Machico Bay. Machico was the first Capital of Madeira, when the first explorers arrived to the island.

My husband and I were totally blown away by the jawdropping views from the peak of Pico do Arieiro. This was followed by more jawdropping views from the deck of Quinta do Furão where we had our lunch. Our guide Diogo was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He also educated us on the various flora and fauna on Madeira Island.

I especially found the beautiful nature with wild growth of the flowers impressive. Off road was the best, i felt like i was in Jurassic Park🦖🦖 The houses from the past were also nice to visit, cute. Ruben is an excellent guide. I recommended this trip to see the country and places where you would never come alone ... we had a nice day!

We had a very fun and informative trip. Ruben is a good guide. He knows a lot about the nature of Madeira and he gives you enough time at the stops. Driving on very steep roads and partly off road is quite exciting! We had a very nice day and we took very beautiful pictures.
