This is a special tour indeed.
Ideal for adventurous families, couples and photographers
There is a certain feeling about being up before everybody else, experiencing the marvels of nature uninterrupted and in all its glory
Our number 1 sunrise spot is Pico do Areiro, the third highest peak of the island.
Very often we are above the clouds and the colours are absolutely extraordinary, truly a once in a lifetime moment!
Of course we cannot always guarantee the perfect weather conditions for the perfect sunrise so we have back up spots such as;
Pico do facho, Ponta Sao Lourenço, Guindaste Viewpoint and one or two secret spots, each with their own unique characteristics.
Our guides are specialists at itinerary planning and when the weather is not ideal, we initiate our "plan B". Note that this could be a completely different itinerary than that is shown here, in order to make the most of the morning!
This is a real adventure and an experience you will not easily forget!
Pickup included
After stopping for an early morning coffee and pit stop we head up into the mountains via the "interesting" back roads of Funchal in our 4x4 towards the third highest peak of Madeira, Pico do Areiro
Very often we are above the clouds and the colours are absolutely extraordinary, truly a once in a lifetime moment!
After coming down from the sunrise we go on a special "bonus" levada walk which we will get all to ourselves, usually very crowded and popular tourist route.
