Madeira sunrise Private tour

By Hiking Island · listed in sunrise tours and guided hikes at Pico do Arieiro

Our take

I'd choose this for a sunrise walk with your own group. The price starts at €80 per adult. Each booking covers two to four people with at least two aged 16 or over.

Choose the Ninho da Manta route for sunrise on PR1. The walk is 2.5 km there and back. You return to the car after sunrise with stops at viewpoints. Hotel pickup and all fees are included.

Agree the sunrise location when you book. There are also routes to Pico Ruivo and Ponta de São Lourenço. Picaroto is another choice. Tips are not included.

From the operator

In Hiking Island's own words, from the Viator listing.

Being able to see the sunrise with your friends and family will make your day spectacular. A short walk to the observation site will bring to your memories countless colors, smells and even flavors until you reach the end of the day and get to know the mountains and trails like a real place. After sunrise we will pass through some of the most emblematic places on our island.
