    Fun train

    If you don’t fancy walking up the hills to see the views, let the train take the strain. The Madeira Green train will make exploring Camara de Lobos easygoing.

    I think it runs every day which is confirmed on their website. Price is quoted as e5 & e9 although earlier this year it was 7.50 - must be getting ready for brexit.
