Activity description

The amazing landscapes of Madeira will grant you the chance for a great adventure. Green Devil Safari will take you on a 4x4 ride that will take you to the most awesome places in the island!

Madeira is one of the islands of the Azores located in the Atlantic Ocean close to the western coast of Africa. The volcanic origin of the island has contributed to the formation of mind-blowing landscapes that you can probably only find there! Also, only around 1/3 of the island is inhabited and mostly along the coast, so that means you can find pristine nature!

To better experience this stunning landscapes, Green Devil Safari invites you on a half day 4x4 excursion to some of the most amazing natural landmarks of the island. In all cases, you'll be picked off in your accommodation and depart from Funchal. Then, depending on your itinerary, you'll head on a comfortable yet exciting ride!

The Rising Sun tour will start in Ponta do Garajau, a cliff that serves as the base for the Sacred Heart Statue and that provides an awesome perspective from Funchal’s bay. Then, you'll continue to Santa Cruz, one of Madeira’s earliest settlements. An uphill ride will begin there passing along farm tracks and glimpsing small settlements almost hidden by the rugged terrain. Also, you will have the opportunity of following native forest trails and the cobblestone royal path towards Machico city.

The Nuns and Valleys will begin in Pico dos Barcelos known for being the hiding spot for some nuns from the Santa Clara convent during the French Corsairs’ attacks in XV/XVI centuries. This mountain offers an impressive sightseeing point. Then, you'll carry on towards the mountains where you'll find several points with astonishing views over the valleys where the village spreads far below.

Finally, the Vineyards and Color tour will take you far from the hustle and bustle of buses and visitors and take you to Cabo Girão. Then, you'll continue your trip to the mountains from where you can contemplate the Nuns Valley villages! This route will seem like a painting with the chestnut trees, vineyards, and orange rooftops!
