East Madeira Guided Tour with Balcões Levada Walk

Begin your adventure at the breathtaking Pico do Areeiro, Madeira’s third-highest peak standing at 1,818 meters. From here, enjoy sweeping mountain views and dramatic landscapes that set the tone for the day.

Your next stop is Ribeiro Frio, where you can enjoy a beautiful 40–45 minute Levada walk to an incredible viewpoint (entrance fee of 5.50€ per person not included. If you decide to do the walk, please inform the office so we can provide all the information on how and where to make the reservation.). If hiking isn’t your preference, spend your time exploring the traditional trout nursery, a peaceful alternative surrounded by lush forest.

Continue to the Guindaste viewpoint in Faial, where you can admire stunning panoramic views over Madeira’s wild and beautiful northeast coast.

Arriving in Santana, you’ll have a generous 1.5-hour break — ideal for lunch and a leisurely visit to the village. Don’t miss the iconic triangular thatched houses, a symbol of Madeira’s cultural heritage.

In the charming seaside village of Porto da Cruz, enjoy a 20–30 minute stop. Visit the North Mills Distillery, one of the island’s oldest rum producers, and sample Madeira’s traditional sugarcane rum.

End your tour at the striking Ponta do Rosto, located on the easternmost peninsula of Madeira. This must-see viewpoint offers dramatic scenery and sweeping views of both the north and south coasts — and on clear days, you may even spot Porto Santo Island in the distance.
