About this experience
Discover Madeira on a fascinating journey! Starting from Funchal, we first stopped at Santa Cruz, continuing towards Porto da Cruz. In Engenho de Cana-de-Zucker, try the traditional "Poncha", a regional drink made with watermelon.
Crossing serpentant paths through Laurissilva, we reached Santana. At the Boca das Voltas viewpoint, enjoy a stunning panoramic view. At Arc de S. Jorge, we will take a lunch break.
Continuing along the north coast, we pass through Boaventura, Ponta Delgada and São Vicente. At Quinta do Barbusano, we will make a visit to the property with a tasting of red, white and rosé wines.
