Water Channel - Levada

Leaving Funchal we start this 5 hours customized shore excursion tour. Our customers were on Sun Princess (cruise ship) and being the first time on the Island they would like to explore some Laurissilva Forest - UNESCO World Heritage Then we drove to the northeast and explored this fantastic off-road and the customers had the courage to cross this tunnel with a water channel (Levada) as many of our ancestors used in some areas as a shortcut to pass from on side of the mountain to the other and they loved it.

Madeira is a garden

Calla Lily - "Zantedeschia aethiopica"

enter image description here

The Madeiran people are proud to live in this paradise so it is very common to see various types of flowers around their houses in pots or gardens, but because Madeira is a garden these flowers also grow naturally in our mountains up to an altitude of 800 meters. At the end of September and beginning of October we started to see these beautiful flowers blooming in our forests.

Garden Nasturtium

Garden Nasturtium - "Tropaeolum majus"

enter image description here

This herb grows well in Madeira up to 300 meters high and it gives this fantastic flower, which in some countries is used in salads or for medicinal purposes because it has a large amount of vitamin C.

Off-Road - We like it and we do it!

We always give the option to do or not to do off-road

Safaris here in Madeira is not to see wild animals often associated with safaris in Africa or a full day with off-road but we do some during our tours. Safari means passing through places/roads where it is not possible with normal vehicles (rental cars), minibus or bus. In recent years we have been adapting our tours to the development of many rural areas or even to what our customers are looking for and usually is just a tour away from the crowds and a different way to explore Madeira.
