What to expect

Join this jeep tour of Madeira and discover remote villages in the Nun's Valley and the highest sea cliff in Europe.

Not far from Funchal and hidden between high mountains and deep valleys, you'll discover several remote villages. Stop at Estreito Câmara de Lobos village, where the finest Madeira wine in the world is produced. The landscape is unique: terraces covered with vineyards. See Boca da Corrida, an amazing viewpoint situated around 1,200 meters above sea level, which provides a great view of Curral das Freiras and all the highest mountains of Madeira. Discover Jardim da Serra, a small village important in cherry production. In spring, the valley around the village is completely covered with a large variety of wildflowers.

Continue to Cabo Girão, the highest sea cliff in Europe and, at 580m, one of the highest worldwide. There, you can experience sky walking over a balcony made of clear glass. Finally, explore Câmara de Lobos, a picturesque fishing village where they fish the unique black scabbard fish at a depth of 1,000m. This was also the favourite place on the island for Winston Churchill. At the end of the tour, you will be dropped off at your hotel in Funchal.
