Overview

Discover the Northeast as a Madeiran, meet the local villages, some of them where they "stopped in time" with their own tiny shops / coffee's, water mill, traditional houses with thatched roof, rum factory, and off road experience taking you to amazing viewpoints. This tour taked nearly 8-hours, having a great time with our multilanguage guide, learning about the locations that you will pass, fauna, flora, history, culture, gastronomy, etc. This experience / tour will be in a open top 4x4 vehicle, taking you thru the native forest, passing at the old roads, farmers & off road tracks. Great landscapes, sea cliffs, valleys of incredibly beauty that are supported by old terraces hand built centuries ago, built on the foundation of love, sweat and tears. A great memory, a great experience with a lot of history will make this a unique experience in Madeira.
