Experience Details
Standard Version
Enjoy sunrise at Pico do Arieiro, Madeira’s highest viewpoint reachable by car, with hotel pickup within our listed pickup areas. Watch the day begin above the clouds in one of the island’s most spectacular mountain settings. This option is ideal for guests who prefer a shorter sunrise experience and want to return early after the activity, including those who may already have breakfast included at their accommodation.
Premium Version
Enjoy a fuller sunrise experience after early hotel pickup, travelling to Pico do Arieiro to watch the sunrise from 1,818 metres above sea level. After sunrise, enjoy an included breakfast with coffee, tea, toasted ham and cheese sandwiches, and homemade cake, followed by a relaxing Paradise Valley levada walk when safe conditions allow. This Premium option is designed for guests who want a more complete morning experience with extra time after sunrise. Please share dietary restrictions when booking.
What You Get
Good To Know

If conditions at Pico do Arieiro are not favourable, an alternative viewpoint such as Palheiro or another suitable location may be used.
- This experience is not a guided PR1 Pico do Arieiro to Pico Ruivo hike. The Standard option is a sunrise viewpoint visit. The Premium option includes a Paradise Valley levada walk after breakfast, not the PR1 mountain hike.
- Please check the option selected when booking. The Standard option includes hotel pickup/drop-off and the Pico do Arieiro sunrise visit. The Premium option also includes breakfast and a levada walk.
- Weather, limited visibility, use of an alternative viewpoint, or inability to do the levada walk due to conditions do not automatically qualify for a refund if the main tour operates.

Fantastic experience, with amazing sunrise views. Gets very cold waiting, so wear layers but so worth it!
High price for transport only. No possibility to see any part of PR1 route. Such a little time after the sunrise.
The experience was lush and the guide was amazing, thank you 🙏
We had a good weather above clouds and it was beautifull, would recommend
Friendly, timely, convenient pick up and return to my hotel. Every sunrise there is spectacular, some more than others but timing is something that you can't control. Two thumbs up for the service.
