What you will do

  • Camara De Lobos

    The tour begins its scenic journey shortly after hotel pickups by passing directly through the traditional fishing village of Câmara de Lobos. This location serves as the starting point for exploring Western Madeira, offering the first glimpse of local coastal life and architecture before the tour continues onward to the higher vantage point of the Cabo Girão Skywalk.

    2 h

  • Immediately following the passage through Câmara de Lobos, the tour proceeds to Cabo Girão. This is a major highlight where the tour stops for visitors to experience the Europe's highest cliff skywalk at 589m, offering spectacular panoramic views of the ocean and coastline before the journey continues inland.

    2 h

  • Following the visit to Cabo Girão, the tour heads next toward Ribeira Brava. This location acts as the crucial transitional point where the tour proceeds to go north through Canhas, beginning the ascent to the Paul da Serra plateau, which leads to the high-altitude mountain pass crossing.

  • São Vicente is the last major location visited on the north coast. The tour proceeds on to this village immediately after viewing the Bridal Veil waterfall in Seixal, marking the endpoint before the vehicle begins the final drive back to Funchal, concluding the full-day excursion.
