Overview

Important: The optional activities (Giant Swing & Zipline) must be booked in advance directly through Adrenaline Xtreme’s website. Please reserve your time slot between 11:20 AM and 1:30 PM to fit the tour schedule.

The journey begins in the charming coastal village of Ponta do Sol, famous for its traditional atmosphere, banana plantations, and the sunniest climate on the island.

From there, the Jeep climbs an old “royal path,” a historic mountain road once used before modern tunnels existed, revealing breathtaking panoramic views. On clear days, you may even rise above the clouds.

The highlight of the tour is Madeira’s ultimate adrenaline zone, where you can choose between two thrilling activities (not included in the base price): the Zipline, flying across the valley at speeds of up to 110 km/h from 320 meters high, or the Giant Swing, suspended off a cliff with a 250-meter drop below.

    From there, your Jeep climbs through an ancient “royal path”— a historic, partially abandoned mountain road once used by locals before modern tunnels were built. As you ascend, the terrain transforms dramatically, offering panoramic vistas and glimpses of Madeira’s beauty. On clear days, you may even find yourself above the clouds, surrounded by misty peaks and endless horizons.

    sensation and unmatched views of the mountains and sea.
