Santana & North Coast Discovery
A full sweep of Madeira's quieter north, built around the food and drink the north is quietly famous for. Thatched palhoeiro houses in Santana, the cliffs at São Roque do Faial — then lunch: espetada the way it's meant to be eaten, beef skewered on laurel wood over open coals at a hillside adega that doesn't advertise. Poncha made from cane spirit distilled on-site, not a supermarket bottle. Queijo da Serra and bolo do caco warm from the bakery on the way home.

What guests say
"My mum is 68 and not a hiker. The Santana tour was perfect — beautiful and totally manageable. The espetada lunch alone was worth it."
