Retken kuvaus

Join this 4x4 tour of Madeira and discover the west of the island and the Fanal Forest.

The adventure starts in Ponta do Sol, which is considered the warmest village on the island. Then, you'll go from 0 to 1,500 meters through ancient roads built during the early 15th century. Paul da Serra is the largest and most extensive plateau of the island of Madeira with about 24 km² and an average altitude of approximately 1500 meters. This flattest area of Madeira is a contrast with the rest of the island.

Afterward, you'll explore the fascinating landscapes along the North coast of Madeira. Pure air and mysterious wilderness in a journey through the indigenous “Laurissilva”, the subtropical forest of Fanal. You'll discover beautiful villages on the outstanding Northern Sea coast, abundant in waterfalls. Continue to Porto Moniz, which is known for its natural volcanic pools.

Finally, you'll visit the spectacular 360º viewpoint Relógio de Água from the secluded valley of São Vicente.

What a brilliant trip. As a family of four (children 15 and 10), we all had a great day, our best trip of the week. Jaz was a brilliant guide, very informative and fun. Answered all our questions about the island and took us to many beautiful sights. Jaz booked our buffet lunch which was great.

Fantastic trip, thought we’d never stop climbing and some of those inclines, hairpins, descents & views - wow! So glad we took up the offered lunch meal deal at Porto Moniz, my partner is coeliac but it was all phoned through, changes made no problems and food was excellent & served with a sea view.

Nat Geo Day Tour: Local Farm Experience on Madeira’s Terraced Hills

Drive through Funchal's bustling town and Madeira's magnificent rolling hills towards Quinta Pedagogica da Camacha, a small farm committed to sustainable agriculture. Here, your National Geographic-trained guide will offer insights into the region and introduce you to the farm's owner, Bruno Santos. Having left accounting for agriculture, Bruno now dedicates his life to helping his neighborhood through sustainable farming, a lowered environmental footprint, and community outreach. Follow Bruno through flowering groves as you explore the grounds. You'll learn about the many uses for their freshly grown herbs and visit their strawberry plantation. Observe the fields and poios—what Madeirans call the terraced areas where they grow their crops—as you learn about the farm's produce and animal husbandry. The farm is home to various animals including chickens, goats, sheep, and more. There's even a small market Bruno created, to help other local vendors reach their greater community, inspired by the ‘buy local' mantra. You'll also experience a host of seasonal activities, offered exclusively to National Geographic travelers. Harvest ripe fruits and learn the proper techniques for sowing seeds in a planting workshop. This hands-on learning environment brings Bruno's sustainability and bio-friendly philosophy to life. Afterwards, you'll relax and enjoy refreshing tea brewed from the farm's own herbs, as well as homemade cakes, toast, and jams preserved from local fruits.
