Explore Madeira’s west coast by minibus, from Cabo Girão and Fanal Forest to Porto Moniz pools, Seixal waterfalls, and lunch.

“Our tour started out a bit slow, because of issues with the van. Our guide Lucy intelligently went to get a new van before we left town. The company extended our tour at the end of the day because of the time lost at the beginning. Funchal and Madeira island are stunningly beautiful, our guide paid attention and figured out that we wanted to see more of the outdoors and walk around, rather than visit more touristy places. We would love to come back to Madeira, thanks to the beautiful places we saw on this tour!Read more”
