All about the trip
We will start our ride heading towards the Santo da Serra, one of the oldest interior towns, which on Sundays is one of the busiest traditional markets with regional products from local producers. Sellers offer many products, such as plates, towels, sheep, potatoes, and also many delicious tropical fruits that grow around the island. You will also find many local foods sold here, such as Bolo do caco with a specific taste of garlic butter. We will then depart to Machico alleyways with some astonishing views before our return.
On this tour, we travel in an open classic ex-army jeep, and we usually go for off-road and old roads, but the ride is very calm, safe and relaxed, with a local certified guide.
