All about the trip
Discover the beauty of northern Madeira, its dramatic landscape with steep cliffs falling to the sea. Explore volcanic caves of São Vicente created by eruption almost a million years ago. And visit the rum house in Porto da Cruz.
We leave Madeira's capital, Funchal, and cross the island from its southern coast to the northern coast.
The village of São Vicente is nestled in a beautiful valley. We visit the local volcanic caves. They were created by a volcanic eruption in Paul da Serra 900 000 years ago by gases formed with hot lava running down from Madeira's largest plateau to the sea.
We continue to picturesque villages of Ponta Delgada and Cabanas de São Jorge where we enjoy our lunch.
In the village of Faial we can admire sharp cliffs typical for the northern coast of Madeira.
Our last stop is Porto da Cruz where we visit the local rum house. After the harvest sugar cane is being fermented here and we can see the process and learn about traditional rum production here.
