I'd pick this for an open-roof day with the main east stops. The shared departure can have up to 50 people. Choose another trip if a smaller group matters more to you.
You visit Pico do Arieiro and Santana before Ponta de São Lourenço. The Referta levada walk takes about 30 minutes through farmland. Off-road driving is part of the day. There's also a rum distillery stop in Porto da Cruz.
The guide and pickup in central Funchal are included. Pickup next to Funchal's port is included too. Food and drinks cost extra. Pickup outside central Funchal carries an extra charge.
