Description
Hey explorer! Are you curious about Madeira? Rightly so, because lush green landscapes, great coastal scenery and a fairytale forest await you. Madeira's nature in all its glory!
Fanal Park: fairytale forest
we will head to Fanal and thus to the 'magic forest' of Madeira. It seems straight out of a storybook. Walk among (hopefully misty) strangely shaped trees and keep your eyes peeled for the famous cows that sometimes appear out of nowhere in the mystical mist.
Ribeira da Janela: picturesque village
Our journey continues to Ribeira da Janela. The highlight here is the impressive rock that rises from the sea and has an opening that resembles a window.
São Vicente Bell Tower Viewpoint
Our next stop is São Vicente, our favourite place in the north. Here we go up a few steps to the famous church tower. A great photo motif and an even greater view from up there, because from here you have a unique perspective on the rugged charm of the island.
Cabo Girão Skywalk: thrilling heights
Next, we head up high to the famous Cabo Girão Skywalk, a glass viewpoint that offers breathtaking views from dizzying heights. At 580 meters high, Cabo Girão is one of the highest capes in Europe. Keep cameras ready (and tight)!
Poncha Time!
we stop at a local poncha bar and try the most famous drink of the island. Cheers to us!

Important Information
- Please be aware that the weather in Madeira is unpredictable, it has a sub tropical climate and can change unexpectedly during the day. That means sometimes paths or places are closed by the local authorities or it might be too dangerous to do the originally planned trip. In these cases we are doing our best to inform you in time and offer you alternatives, but sometimes we need to be flexible on the tour day itself. What will never be missed is good mood and the beauty of the island - no matter what weather, we are sure you will enjoy this paradise!
