What to expect on this Cabo Girão Trike Adventure

This is about a 30 minute drive from Funchal, along the West Coast. On the way you have a magnificent view of Funchal and the Atlantic Ocean. We pass throughCâmara de Lobos.  

Cabo Girão is on the south coast of Madeira and  is the second highest cliff in Europe, with a glass-floor skywalk affording you panoramic views and provides an illusion  of walking on air. On a clear day you would be able to see the Island of Desertas.

All of the vegetation that is grown below Cabo Girão is tropical fruit and when harvested, it is transported up by cable car , as this is the only means of transporting the produce from below.  

The private beach below Cabo Girão cliff is accessible via the Teleferico do Rancho.  The cable car station is about a 4km drive from the viewpoint and would need more time

Excellent way to explore the island, fresh air, safe driver and extremely knowledgable about the true facts of the land, culture and history. No stress at all, and despite much of information you feel relaxed after the tour.
