What you can expect

  • Explore Madeira on an exclusive itinerary designed by Madeira 4 Tours, enjoying a private half‑day experience with Ross.

    Begin in Santa Cruz, strolling along the promenade beside the pebble beach, visiting the municipal garden and the 1507 church, or trying a traditional local bakery.

    Continue to Machico, Madeira’s oldest town, known for its charming centre, shops, sand beach, and historical monuments.

    Ascend to Pico do Facho at ~570 m, one of the island’s most scenic viewpoints, where you can contemplate Madeira’s “dragon tail” coastline or watch aircraft landing at the airport.

    Visit the extreme east side of the island at Ponta do Rosto, where African winds have shaped the landscape into a desert‑like environment, offering a unique view over Ponta de São Lourenço.

    From here, traverse the island to the north and climb through the Laurissilva Forest to reach Miradouro da Portela, with lush‑green scenery over Madeira’s north coast.

    The last stop is Quinta da Junta Garden in Santo da Serra, a Madeiran favourite where you can walk among exotic plants, observe local birds, and enjoy a beautiful viewpoint overlooking the hills of Machico.

    This experience is private, flexible, and designed to avoid crowds, ensuring a smooth and comfortable day.
