Then, enjoy a scenic Levada walk through Madeira’s traditional agricultural landscapes, passing locally cultivated fields of vegetables, sugar cane and vineyards. Along the way, meet local farmers who share their knowledge and passion for the land.
Take in stunning panoramic views over Porto da Cruz, the North Coast and the dramatic rock formation of Penha d’Águia, rising proudly above the ocean. This walk offers an authentic insight into Madeira’s rural life, with a strong connection to local traditions.
In Porto da Cruz, the scent of rum fills the air as you visit a traditional distillery. Here, you'll witness the time-honored processes that have made Madeira’s rum famous around the world.
Finally, the adventure culminates at Ponta de São Lourenço. This rugged peninsula is known for being the lowest, driest and windiest part of the island, offering stunning views over both north and south coasts.
