About this activity
A thrilling 4-hour open-roof 4x4 adventure combining mountain passes, Europe's second-highest cliff, and traditional Madeira wine tasting in a historic fishing village. Perfect for combining adrenaline, scenery, and local culture in one half-day experience.
Starting our tour with amazing views over Funchal´s Bay, we drive uphill to Boca dos Namorados, at nearly 1000 mts high above sea level, where we will be able to see the famous village of Curral das Freiras (Nun's Valley). Going higher to Boca da Corrida through a spectacular off road with an elevation of about 1200 mts, you will be astonished by the main volcanic complex and highest mountains of the island. From there, we go downhill to Jardim da Serra, place known by its cherry production. Here we will have a quick stop, where you can enjoy a portugues coffee, natural tea or the very traditional drink Poncha (not included), freshly made by a local. We will continue towards Cabo Girão, the highest cliff in Europe and second in the World with 580 mts, better known for its renovated viewpoint with suspended glass floor. Later, we will finish our tour at the warm and traditional fishing village of Câmara de Lobos visiting a Madeira Wine Lodge, where our guests will have the opportunity to taste (included) the famous Madeira wine (Sweet / Medium Sweet / Dry / Medium Dry).
Highlights

- ✓Navigate spectacular off-road terrain to Boca da Corrida (1200m) overlooking volcanic peaks

Insider tips
- ★Arrive with a full stomach — the elevation gains and winding mountain roads can cause motion sickness; the Poncha stop is brief and beverages only
- ★The glass floor at Cabo Girão can feel intense; those with height anxiety may prefer staying in the main observation area
- ★Morning departures offer clearer visibility at higher elevations; afternoon tours risk cloud cover obscuring mountain views
- ★Wear layers — temperature drops significantly as you climb, even on warm days in Funchal
Good to know
- •Open-roof vehicle: bring sunscreen and a windbreaker for comfort at altitude
- •Off-road sections are rough but graded; passengers should have reasonable mobility to handle bumpy terrain
- •Poncha and wine tastings are included; other refreshments at Jardim da Serra are not
- •Meeting point and return location: confirm with supplier before booking (typically Câmara de Lobos or Funchal port area)
- •Not wheelchair accessible due to off-road terrain and multiple transfers
