Volcanic Pools and Northwest 4WD Full Day Tour

Embark on an unforgettable shore excursion through the breathtaking Northwest of Madeira in a 4x4 vehicle with an open-top roof, perfect for soaking in the island’s stunning views. This journey takes you through lush valleys and climbs to elevations of up to 1500 meters, offering panoramic sights of the native forest, unique flora and fauna, and the iconic Madeiran water channels known as "levadas." Along the way, your guide will share fascinating insights into the island’s natural and cultural history. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes, as there will be a short 15-minute walk to explore the levadas more closely. You'll also cross the rare Madeira plateau—the only flat area on the island—before making your way to the spectacular coastal village of Porto Moniz.

In Porto Moniz, you'll visit the famous volcanic lava pools, where, weather permitting, you’ll have the chance to take a refreshing swim in their crystal-clear waters. Lunch is optional but highly recommended, offering a delicious three-course meal with a beverage and coffee for just €12 per person. As the tour continues back toward the southern coast, enjoy breathtaking views of dramatic cliffs and cascading waterfalls. To top off the experience, we’ll make a stop so you can taste Madeira’s beloved traditional drink, poncha—our famous "nectar" and a true local delight. This tour offers a perfect blend of adventure, culture, and relaxation in one of the island’s most scenic regions.
