Overview

Enjoy a great-value shared sunrise transfer to Pico do Arieiro using fixed meeting points in strategic tourist areas. This option is designed for travellers who prefer a lower price and can meet us at one of the listed points instead of using hotel pickup.

The meeting-point system keeps the early-morning route simpler, more direct and more reliable. Hotel pickup and hotel drop-off are not included. Return transfer is included back to the same meeting point after sunrise.

We normally go to Pico do Arieiro, but if weather or visibility conditions are not favourable, an alternative viewpoint may be used to provide the best possible experience. Please bring warm clothing, as summit temperatures can be much lower than in Funchal. Toilet facilities may be limited.

Know before you book

  • Suitable for all physical fitness levels
  • This option uses fixed meeting points only. Hotel pickup and hotel drop-off are not included.
  • This is a short and simple sunrise transfer designed for travellers who want to see sunrise at Pico do Arieiro and return early to their meeting point to enjoy the rest of the day.
  • No hike or guided walking activity is included with this option.
  • Please bring warm clothing and suitable footwear. Mountain temperatures can be much lower than in Funchal before sunrise.
  • Mountain weather can change quickly, and clear views, sunrise colours or visibility cannot be guaranteed. The tour normally operates when access is open and conditions are safe.

Weather, limited visibility, or use of an alternative viewpoint do not automatically qualify for a refund if the main tour operates.
