Overview:
In this tour, I'll demonstrate how exquisite the Northwest side of our sweet island is. Going through our local villages, old roads and narrating about old times, you will have a perspective of how our people used to and still live to this day with their culture and traditions. In this journey you will also notice our Centenary trees in Fanal, having stories and memories that no man can tell, where the colour green is always with you. Waterfalls will be something that you see very often along the roads from Porto Moniz to São Vicente, beautiful and natural sights of water falling down throughout the rocks and cliffs. Agua D'alto is one of many waterfalls in the area, where we will make a brief stop to contemplate its simplicity and natural beauty as well as to see the astounding view of São Vicente and Ponta Delgada. In general this will be a tour with a lot of interesting, diverse and unique environments and landscapes.

The private 4x4 format made the day feel flexible and unhurried. Exploring Madeira toward Porto Moniz this way allowed access to remote viewpoints and scenic roads that would be difficult to reach otherwise.

Driving off-road added a sense of adventure, but the experience always felt controlled and comfortable. The vehicle handled the terrain smoothly.
