Discover the raw mountain beauty and rich cultural heritage of Madeira’s Eastern coastline on this comprehensive full-day expedition. Led by our certified local chauffeur guide, you will traverse dramatic peaks, tranquil valleys, and vibrant historic villages.
Beginning with a drive above the clouds to Pico do Arieiro, the island’s third-highest peak, we journey through the verdant laurel forests of Ribeiro Frio. We then immerse ourselves in local history at Santana, famous for its colorful A-frame houses, before heading to the rugged volcanic peninsula of Ponta de São Lourenço and the historic coastal town of Machico.
Stand above the clouds at 1,818 meters with panoramic views of the island's central mountain range.
Explore lush, prehistoric Laurisilva forests and visit the famous trout fishery.
Wander through the village center to see the iconic, colorful thatched-roof homes native to the island.
Admire the dramatic, multi-colored volcanic cliffs at the easternmost tip of Madeira.
We recommend comfortable walking footwear, warm layers (it can be very cold and windy at Pico do Arieiro), sunglasses, and a camera.
Pair your West Coast adventure with these top-rated island experiences.
