Overview

Our half day starts at Pico dos Barcelos viewpoint, a very nice view of all Funchal, where we can see different locations of the city and have an amazing sight for lovely pictures.

Continuing up, we head in direction to one of the biggest tourist attractions of Madeira, Eira do Serrado at a height of  1053m (3455 feet), where we can enjoy the magnificent view of Nuns Valley, which once was a refuge for the Nuns of the Monastery of Santa Clara during the invasion of the French Privateers to the Island. During our trip we will stop in some viewpoints to see the Socorrido Stream and tell the story of Old Madeira with some narrow old roads built on the mountains.

Laughter, songs, stories and Views

Joining Pearl of the Atlantic for another amazing half day tour. Marco is such a great guide with so much personal knowledge making the trip so much fun and memorable. The experience starts when climbing on the bus and for the next few hours you are shown some of the most incredible scenery, told some incredible stories and laugh and sing along with Marco the Musician who is always ready to entertain. Would highly recommend if you want a local, professional guide who cares deeply about his island.

Nuns' Valley Tour

We were picked up spot on time by Richard. He was a very personable guy with a wealth of stories about the island, our specific tour (Nuns' Valley).

In this time of Covid we were very impressed by the precautions taken. Hand sanitiser supplied by the company and all of us wore masks.

We spent a very enjoyable few hours in his company.

We would have absolutely NO hesitation in suggesting this tour.

Thanks Richard
Excellent experience!

Richard our guide suggested this tour and we are so glad we could fit it in! The views of the valley below are awesome and we couldn’t get enough of them! We also stopped for some chestnut cake, which the area is famous for.
