The Christ the King statue

Christ statue also known as Sacred Heart statue

The statue of Christ the King of Garajau was erected in honour of the Sagrado Coração de Jesus. It can be found at the viewpoint overlooking Ponta do Garajau, in the municipality of Santa Cruz. 

The statue of Christ the King of Garajau was designed by the French sculptor Georges Serraz. It is a very imposing sculpture of Jesus Christ with his arms open and facing the Atlantic Ocean.  It simulates the very famous Christ The Redeemer statue in Brazil, it is just not as high.

You have a lovely view of Funchal, particularly the Port of Funchal. This viewpoint is used by many people to watch the Fireworks Display on New Years Eve

A spectacular way to see Funchal and the surrounding area! If you select this tour, you will be the envy of your fellow travelers. Being on a Trike provides you with the security of a stable, comfortable and sturdy platform while allowing you panoramic exposure to the sights and smells of Funchal. You just can't get this experience from a bus, car, or jeep! The area is beautiful with a rich history. Along the way, John provided us with interesting facts about Funchal and the Madeira countryside. We made a few stops including a local eatery where we experienced a Madeiran drink known as a Pancha. (try it ... trust me) This experience made the Mrs. and I want to come back to Funchal! When we do, we will definitely call Adventure Trikes Tours!!

Had a 4hr private tour, driver included. Garth took us to some beautiful places, which we would have struggled to get to. He was a great guide & very knowledgeable with all the places we went to. The trike was comfortable to ride on & we felt safe at all times. Would we do it again!!! Definitely, great value for the money.

We have been to Madeira a number of times but we had our best day out a couple of weeks ago John (not sure if the spelling is correct) took us to some areas we had never visited. He will arrange the trip to suit the customer. Thoroughly recommend Thank you for a fantastic day. We will be back on October! Jane and John. Having trouble posting pics but will add
