3.Madeira: Cabo Girão, Wines Experience and Dolphins Watching

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 29 reviews · 8 hours · from $128

Start in Funchal with Cabo Girão’s 580-meter cliff and glass platform, then ride through Serra d’Água and São Vicente in an open-roof vehicle. At Quinta do Barbusano, taste one rosé, three whites, and two reds before a three-hour catamaran trip for dolphins and whales. English guidance, pickup, and insurance are included.

“Het leukste aan de activiteit was het wijnproeven, de info die we daar kregen en de korte safaririt met de open dak. De boottrip was echter niet zo, die was erg lang gezien weinig verandering uitzicht e.n beperkte info. Het was vooral veel varen, kort zwemmen (Max. 10 minuten) en er werd helemaal geen verdere informatie of praatje gegeven over de dieren etc. De crew gaf aan het begin een veiligheidsinstructie echter waren zij niet te verstaan boven het geronk van de boot.”
