Madeira Sunrise Tour - With Guided Hike & Breakfast at Pico do Arieiro

This sunrise tour is an early but rewarding way to start the day in Madeira, combining mountain views, a gentle hike and a traditional breakfast. We head into the mountains before dawn, often towards Pico do Arieiro, to reach a high viewpoint in time to watch the sun rise above the clouds. The route is planned based on the conditions on the day, so we always aim for the best possible sunrise.

After sunrise, we enjoy a short walk in the fresh morning air before stopping for a Madeira-style breakfast. With hotel pickup and drop-off included, everything is taken care of, so you can relax and enjoy a calm, well-organised start to your day. It’s a great choice for couples, photographers and anyone who wants to see Madeira at its best in the early hours.

Pico do Arieiro is one of Madeira’s most iconic viewpoints and, on the right day, an incredible place to watch the sun rise above the clouds. Being high in the mountains, conditions can change quickly - cloud cover or strong winds may affect visibility. That’s why we plan the route on the day, using our local knowledge to choose the best sunrise location. If Pico do Arieiro isn’t suitable, we’ll take you to another beautiful viewpoint that offers the best possible start to the day.
