Guidekin's take

Open top jeep options focus on Santana, eastern peaks or volcanic pools and native forest, so the route depends on your selection.

A driver-guide and Funchal or Caniço pickup are included; lunch and the fuel surcharge are extra. 4.8 from 90 reviews at €69 per person for 7h 30m.

In our comparison: #58 of 66 in Jeep & 4x4 Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
