Why take this tour?

Madeira’s northwest coast boasts varied landscapes and attractions, but a typical coach tour to these dispersed sites doesn’t allow much time to explore. Benefit from a tour in 4x4 vehicle, and experience a thrilling, multi-terrain adventure. Visit landmarks including Paul da Serra and Porto Moniz, and enjoy the undivided attention of your driver and guide as you explore the jungle and, weather permitting, dip in the sea.

About operator:

Green Devil Safari was created for the benefit of the traveller who wants to explore and mingle with locals, eager for unique and tailor-made experiences. With a unique pre-historic forest, a true relic of ancient nature; with an average altitude of 1300 meters, rugged terrain, deep valleys, massive mountains, micro-climates, added to these: an impressive network of beaten tracks crossing dense forests, secular cobblestone paths almost seeming to extend into to oblivion, connecting villages where time stood still. It makes sense to travel in a 4x4 open top jeep with professional, experienced, knowledgeable, friendly guides, always in a good mood with smiley faces. We, the drivers/guides want to take you to secret places which even locals seldom know; we love to see your reaction, your awed expression because we want you to return to Madeira and maybe bringing friends. Our goal is to make yourselves honorary Madeirans and pass on the love we have for this Island.
