Private Madeira East 4x4 Full-Day: Pico do Arieiro, Santana & Rum

Discover a different side of Madeira on this private East 4x4 full-day tour, where cloud-top peaks, ancient forest, traditional villages and dramatic coastal views come together in one scenic journey. From Pico do Arieiro to Ribeiro Frio and Santana’s thatched houses, this experience reveals the natural and cultural contrasts of Madeira’s east side. Travel beyond the busiest tourist roads through selected rural and off-road routes with your private local driver/guide. Along the way, visit Faial and Porto da Cruz, a village closely linked to Madeira’s sugarcane history and rum-making heritage, before continuing towards the volcanic coastal scenery of Caniçal. With a flexible pace, scenic photo stops and no other groups sharing the experience, this is a more personal and authentic way to explore East Madeira.
