This was a half day tour. We booked with Secret Madeira where one option is a bundle of 3 tours (with East and West) at a very good price. The only pricing issue is the sled ride in Monte has to be paid separately - having said which it meant we went first as there was no queue and the rest of the group were awaiting their tickets from the driver
The owner of Secret Madeira picked up or dropped off a few people from the bus to avoid this taking too long to do all the pickups, which was a very smart and in our experience unusual move
The sled ride is an absolute must do.
The drive to Nuns Valley is really interesting, includes stops at several viewpoints on the way there and back.
At Nuns Valley there was a tasting of local liqueurs, very good and very interesting.
