The experience includes mountain roads, narrow roads and uneven off-road sections. The journey may therefore feel bumpy at times.
Guests with reduced mobility, back problems or other relevant concerns should ask for advice before booking.
The driver-guide may alter individual stops or the complete route according to road conditions and operational requirements.
Weather conditions can vary considerably between Funchal, the mountains and Madeira’s east coast.
The route may be adjusted when fog, rain or road conditions make a planned section unsuitable. Guests should bring layers and a light waterproof jacket even when the weather in Funchal is warm.
Cancellation and amendment conditions depend on the selected booking option. The applicable terms will be confirmed before the booking is completed.
Route changes caused by weather or road conditions do not necessarily mean that the complete experience will be cancelled.
