Overview

For unsurpassed ocean and island views take a tour of the North! Leaving Funchal, Madeira’s capital, we follow the way to São Vicente village, set in a most beautiful valley.

We will continue our drive to Ponta Delgada, a picturesque village where the natural surroundings can be admired at their best. There will be a stop for the lunch break at São Jorge / Cabanas de São Jorge, a unique village overlooking the sea and surrounded by mountains and vineyards that shows off some of Madeira’s most spectacular scenery.

The return journey takes you through stunning valleys, passing the beautiful village of Faial and Porto da Cruz where you will have the possibility of visiting the “Northern Milling Company” for its sugar cane rum production, which is not always in time of the harvest or fermentation but still you can see all the procedure and history of one of the most important mills of the island.

We end our tour with a stop at a spectacular viewpoint overlooking the city of Machico.
