East Madeira Peaks & Santana by open-top 4x4 from Funchal, with viewpoints, Santana houses, and great guides. Lunch optional.
“So glad we booked this tour. It was such a great day, especially for my husband as it was his birthday. The humour, friendship and the knowledge of the island that Lino provided was first class. We have been on many tours of the Island, but this jeep tour was by far the best we have had. Great company and so many laughs. Lino isThe Grren Devil!!!
