Highlights
  • Safari Madeira Island - With 30 years of experience, SAFARI MADEIRA takes you to know the true spirit of Madeira Island. In a unique and striking way, with SAFARI MADEIRA, you can enjoy the magnificent scenery of these unknown areas. An opportunity to “go back in time”.

Travel with us in a unique way and enjoy magnificent hidden surroundings of this wonderful island.

  • Baia de Camara de Lobos - Here you will have some time to explore the amazing Câmra de Lobos fishing bay.
  • Cabo Girao - “It is the highest cape in Europe, at an elevation of 580 m, and is famous for its suspended glass platform.

The Cabo Girão viewpoint, situated on the highest promontory in Europe, at an elevation of 580 m, offers a vertiginous view of the fajãs of Rancho and Cabo Girão – small areas of cultivated land at the foot of the cliff – as well as magnificent panoramic views over the ocean and the municipalities of Câmara de Lobos and Funchal.

The viewpoint has been renovated, and a suspended glass platform, called a skywalk, was built.

It is an excellent spot to practice paragliding and base jumping. Recently, the Portuguese parachutist Mário Pardo performed a spectacular motorcycle leap here.

Nearby is the Chapel of Nossa Senhora de Fátima (Our Lady of Fátima), built in 1951 and one of the main pilgrimage sites of the island.” (visitmadeira.pt)

A full day of sight seeing - Our driver quickly and efficiently took us around the island, providing useful and humorous commentary all the while. We saw lots of the different climates of Madeira - misty forests, mountains above the clouds, and some beaches too. Most of the stops were pretty short - around 5 minutes - enough time to walk around a bit and snap some photos, but we got more time to explore at the more interesting places (Porto Moniz and Seixal)

Excellent value - We stopped at a number of interesting places and our guide was full of interesting facts about them. For what amounts to a full day's trip, it really did represent very good value for money. My only word of caution would be about the vehicles. Our 4x4 was old and those sitting on the benches in the back found it uncomfortable after a while. The good news is that with all of the stops, you can jump out and stretch, but some people might really struggle after a while.

Wonderful Views, Wonderful Experience (Tour Guide: Victor) - What a day! Jam packed full of adventure and sight-seeing. Our tour guide Victor was amazing, very knowledgeable, friendly and funny! Just in one day you get to see all these wonderful places in Madeira which, unless you are used to driving in Madeira, you wouldn't be able to do yourself! I would recommend this to anyone wanting to see many landmarks in a day with stress-free travel.

Terrible Vehicles - The vehicles taking you on this trip are not fit for the purpose of taking 8 adults. The seating at the rear are bench seats facing inwards for 4 people and are very cramped. (7 year olds may fit). When sitting on these seats the framework of the roof is at eye level on the only view out is of the sky. When the driver brakes or changes gear you bang your head on the framework. The seats at the front are better but if you are last to be picked up you are stuck with the rear sears. I would not recommend these vehicles to anyone.
