Itinerary

    this belvedere dates from 1950. At approximately 355 metres above sea level, it offers a panoramic view overlooking Funchal Bay.

    10 minutes

  • Curral das Freiras

    Curral das Freiras was the property of a couple that sold this land to the captain of Funchal, João Gonçalves da Câmara. This captain gave the lands to his daughters when they entered the Santa Clara convent (also built by him).

    10 minutes

  • Miradouros Do Paredao

    Montado do Paredão an area which was subject to intensive reforestation works.

    5 minutes

  • Pico do Arieiro

    10 minutes

  • Valley of the Nuns

    In 1566 the nuns from the Santa Clara convent fled from pirates attacking Funchal and found seclusion here, where they also brought the convent treasure. The parish is very isolated, and locals mainly live of what they grow. The local chestnuts are delicious and are used in everyday cooking.

Nuns & Valleys - a very enjoyable half day tour.

Published on Oct, 2024

Excellent half day tour. We were a group of 6 family and friends and we all really enjoyed this tour. Punctual pickup from our hotel, our guide Lino was knowledgeable, experienced, enthusiastic and entertaining throughout the whole journey. Some off road driving, carried out confidently and safely and it really enhanced the experience.

A fabulous half day.

Published on Jun, 2024

We loved the whole experience. Nelson, our guide, was really helpful, professional and knowledgeable. There were only 3 of us on our tour and we had plenty of time at each stop. Highly recommended.

A breathtaking tour with Green dragon tours

Published on Jul, 2023

5 out of 5. Diego was a brilliant tour leader stopping to show us all the plants, fruit the country has to offer. We had enough time to stop and roam around before going on to our next stop. Worth the morning or afternoon to see the beautiful sights of Madeira. Thank you.

First but not last Jeep Safari

Published on Mar, 2023

Had a great time visiting Nun’s Valley, Pico Dos Barcelos, Curral Das Freiras and Pico Areeiro. Lino was very knowledgeable, gave us all the history and ensured we got the best viewpoints. Would definitely do another jeep safari…..best way to travel!

FANTASTIC GUIDE NUNO

Published on Oct, 2022

After 30 years of coming to Madeira and enjoying many lovely experiences, a safari guided by Nuno was the crowing glory. Nuno’s attitude knowledge and experience patients friendliness was beyond exemplary. We had a fantastic half day tour. Thankyou Nuno. We would also like to thank our other 2 fellow travellers Adrian and his wife from the Isle of Man.
