Overview:
In this journey I will be showing you the Eastern Side of our lovely Island. You will see the old, alternative, magical roads that were used in the old times and were still being used in recent days. These are roads in places where the old traditions still remain in the daily life of the locals. We will be able to present to you their perspectives as we travel throughout time. You'll also see amazing views of the central mountains, then later the landscape over the north east coast and valleys of the island. We will have several attractions where green will be predominant, due to the Laurissilva protected area, but also different colors from the flowers that we will come across during the tour. This being said, we believe that you will have a wonderful time, you will see distinctive and unique landscapes, you will meet such lovely people and in the end you will have a great story to bring home.

A very enjoyable way to explore the east side of Madeira. The 4x4 allowed access to places that feel more remote and less crowded, and the scenery throughout the day was impressive. The guide shared useful insights while keeping the experience relaxed.

The experience was smooth and well organized. The route was well planned and offered several viewpoints along the way. Santana was a nice stop, and the overall pacing made it easy to enjoy each part of the day.

A great private experience overall. The guide, Bruno, was friendly and knowledgeable, making the journey more engaging with interesting details about the island. The landscapes are even more impressive in person.
