Shore Excursion Santana - Northeast 4x4 tour

This is a shore excursion with pick-up and drop-off at the cruise terminal, and includes a traditional Madeiran lunch. Discover the Northeast side of Madeira Island like a local, exploring villages that seem frozen in time, where tiny cafés, old water mills, and traditional thatched-roof houses still remain. Visit a local rum factory, admire sea cliffs and valleys, and experience the dramatic landscapes on an off-road adventure in an open-top 4x4 vehicle. Along the way, our multilingual guide will share stories about the island’s history, unique flora and fauna, and fascinating cultural traditions, making this a truly immersive journey.

Travel through the native UNESCO forest, winding along old cobbled roads and hidden farmers’ tracks. Pass through valleys supported by ancient stone terraces—structures built by hand with love, sweat, and centuries of heritage. From the peaceful charm of local communities to breathtaking viewpoints and panoramic landscapes, this full-day tour offers unforgettable sights and authentic encounters. With its perfect mix of nature, culture, and adventure, this unique 4x4 experience promises to create lasting memories of Madeira.
