In the old part of Funchal, you will board a cable car for a scenic ride up to the town of Monte.
Enjoy a brief adventure with a wicker sleigh ride down to Livramento. This form of transportation is a step back into the past and is a rather thrilling ride that is quite unique to Madeira.
Continue to Pico dos Barcelos, which offers a fantastic panorama of the whole of Funchal city, its bay, harbor and the surrounding hills. Back in Funchal, you'll have a chance to taste some Madeira wine.
Notes:
The sleigh ride is at a moderate-to-fast pace. All forms of transportation involve inherent risk, so you participate at your own risk. Sleigh operates weather permitting. There may be a wait for the sleighs during peak times. Tour does not operate on weekends or holidays. Wear comfortable walking shoes. No guarantee is offered with regard to visibility or views on any particular day, as weather and atmospheric conditions vary and are beyond the tour operator's control. Bring local currency, as many vendors do not accept credit cards or US dollars.
