Ventured into the untouched northwest of Madeira, exploring the heritage of old roads and hidden paths on an exhilarating open 4x4 jeep tour from Funchal.
Around every bend, we will met with breathtaking views and stops in magical places like the Paul da Serra, Fanal Forest, Porto Moniz, and Seixal.
The morning is usually spent exploring the south western coastline around the areas of Campaário, Ribeira Brava, Tabua, Lugar de Baixo and the picturesque village of Ponta do Sol (old roads), enjoying the amazing southwestern cliffs.
After coffee, we start “climbing” almost from sea level to 1500m altitude, up the old roads and dirt paths to one of the west tour’s main attraction, the plateau, Paul da Serra, were we can see the wild life co-habiting with cattle grazing quietly.
Before reaching the top, you will have the chance to walk on a small section of a levada walk, not touristy, for about 30/40 minutes (optional).
After walking, above the clouds, 1400 mts high, with stuning views we will keep our way foward to Ribeira da Janela.
As we cross this captivating region, the only plateau in Madeira, called “Madeiran tundra”, immerse yourself in the lush paradise of the Fanal Laurisilva Forest 
Among towering trees and vibrant flora, feel transported to another world. This immersive journey is a unique chance to connect deeply with the island’s rich and exuberant biodiversity.
We will be able to make a stop to walk in the mysterious Fanal Forest
