What to expect

Venturing to Madeira's unspoiled lands and seas is easy on this combination 4x4 and catamaran tour. You'll spend the morning exploring country and coastal tracks to highlights like Boca dos Namorados and Cabo Girão, then the afternoon is for relaxing on a three-hour dolphin watching catamaran cruise.

First up it's Boca dos Namorados, a lookout overlooking the staggering depths of Nun's Valley. After a short trip we'll then arrive at Jardim da Serra, Madeira's cherry land. You'll also be taken to the highest sea cliff in Europe, Cabo Girão, where for a small fee you'll be able to gaze out over panoramic views towards the sea below. Finally, you'll head to Camara de Lobos for a Madeira wine tasting, where we'll wrap up the 4x4 portion of the tour.

Now, hop aboard a catamaran for a three-hour cruise from Funchal past Cabo Girão – where in summer you'll stop for a swim. You'll have the chance to look out for dolphins and whales in their natural habitat, too, before the trip ends back at the marina in Funchal.

Madeira 4x4 tour and wine-tasting experience

Why stick to the usual roads when Madeira's wilder side is calling? On this off-road adventure, you'll start with ocean views at Cabo Girão – one of Europe's highest sea cliffs – before snaking through the scenic São Vicente Valley, where quiet trails wind between red-roofed farms and lush peaks. The grand finale is a visit to Quinta do Barbusano, where you'll tour the vines with an expert, enjoy a selection of local wines and nibbles – and take in views that make every sip even sweeter.

Activities

Levada da Silveira hiking tour

Follow the smell of eucalyptus and wild herbs as you hike along the Levada da Silveira. As you walk the 9.5-kilometre trail, you'll be rewarded with a canopy of greenery in the Laurissilva Forest before the path opens out onto views over the town of Santana. Other hikes on the island offer big, busy, dramatic experiences, but this levada is all about the cool, calm and more subtle side of the island, with fewer crowds jostling for the same view. It's a moderate trail that takes around four hours and is ideal if you're a nature lover who's happy with heights and a short tunnel section.

Excursions & day trips

Madeira tailored tuk-tuk taxi tour from Funchal six hours

Make light work of Funchal's steep and narrow streets as your driver weaves through them in a nippy little tukxi – a motorised tuk-tuk taxi. But you can go so much further than the city on your three, four or even six-hour adventure. The options to personalise your journey are endless. Heading west, you could take a slow-paced scenic tour to the fishing village of Câmara de Lobos, the sea cliffs and glass skywalk of Cabo Girão, or the vineyards of Fajã dos Padres. For some mountain air, you could head north to find the Botanical Gardens, the historic hill village of Monte and views of the dramatic Nuns' Valley. Chat to your driver to help tailor your own memorable Madeiran daytrip.
