English-speaking guide

A 4x4 route to Porto Moniz that also stops at Cabo Girão.

South and west coast from Funchal

Choose the scenic western tour to link south coast villages, Cabo Girão and Porto Moniz. If you like the idea of an off-road vehicle, compare the northern 4x4 trip.

The east and the peaks

For a day of mountains and villages, look at the eastern tour. A hike up Pico do Arieiro needs separate planning for trail conditions and the return.
