Discover the charm of eastern Madeira's arid landscape on this panoramic tour that will take you through the towns of Santana and Machico!

Tour Details

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel and start our tour of eastern Madeira.

Our first stop will be the Terreiro da Luta viewpoint, where we'll enjoy a beautiful view of the emblematic bay of Funchal, with the ocean as a backdrop.

Afterwards, we'll move on to the village of Faial, where we'll see the rock of the eagles, and continue to Santana. There, we'll admire its famous triangular thatched houses, one of Madeira's most famous images.

Next, we'll stop at one of the restaurants in the area so you can get yourself something to refuel and perhaps taste some of the local cuisine. After, we'll go up to the Guindaste viewpoint.

We'll continue the tour to Machico. During the journey, we'll admire the large sugar cane terraces that populate this side of the island. Once in Machico, the first capital of Madeira, we'll have a closer look at its historical heritage and culture.

After this historical stop, we'll head to Ponta de São Lourenço, one of the most pronounced geographical features of the island that offers a unique and impressive landscape with panoramic views over the north and south sides.

Finally, after almost 8 hours exploring eastern Madeira, we'll return to your hotel.

Hotel Pickup

This tour includes pickup from certain hotels in Funchal. When you book, you can select yours or the nearest one to you.

Children under 4

Children under 4 years old can join the tour for free, but there is a fee of 7EUR per child to cover the use of a car seat during transport.
