Soul & Essence – 4X4 Panda Tours In Madeira Island

On our private tour up to 3 PAX,  where you can drive a vintage Fiat Panda 4×4 off-road, you’ll be able to combine the thrill of off-road driving with the wonderful sightseeing at sea level in Garajau, the Laurissilva in Santo da Serra and at the highest peaks in Pico do Areeiro. Truly, this experience can’t be put into words, you just have to live it by yourself.
We’ll usually pick-up our clients at the hotel, accommodation or ship, and then we go straight to Garajau, where the adventure will begin. In Garajau we’ll experience a wonderful view at Miradouro do Cristo-Rei, where we have a massive statue of Jesus Christ.
We’ll slowly climb Santo da Serra, trough the old roads you’ll see the untouched Madeira, that remains the same, to enter the Laurissilva florest. It’s classified as World Heritage Site by Unesco, because of it’s exclusiveness, most of the plants you will only find in Madeira. This is where you can fill your lungs with real, pure, unpolluted fresh air.
At the same time we’ll start our off-road adventure, after a small security briefing. We’ll pass through Fajã das Vacas to do a small Levada and go towards Portela on a path full of beauty and fun.
Still off roading we’ll be heading towards Santo António da Serra, to cook our own lunch, a traditional Espetada, only if you want to of course.
After this we will go to Poiso, trough one of Madeiras more beautiful roads where we will taste a nice poncha to help us digest our lunch. This is a must stop place in Madeira.
After we’ll be heading to Pico do Areeiro to see the sights from Madeira’s second highest peak. And then back to Funchal trough the old roads.
