Walking & Hiking Tours in Funchal

10 tours · €16.4–€100 per person · ★ 4.8

Walking is how Funchal makes sense, from the painted doors of the Zona Velha old town up to the miradouros that look back over the harbour. Book a Funchal walking tour and a local guide steers you through the Lavradores market, the cobbled lanes above the cathedral, and the gardens climbing toward Monte, with the route doing the legwork on the hills.

Decide how far you want to roam before you compare walking tours in Funchal. City strolls keep you among the tiled facades and tasting stops for poncha and bolo do caco; the bigger pull is the high country. We'd steer you to the PR1 ridge hike between Pico do Areeiro and Pico Ruivo for sunrise above the clouds, or a guided levada walk and jeep day trip out to the west coast and its natural pools. Small-group keeps the pace social, a private guide tailors the itinerary, and most include hotel pickup and free cancellation.

10 Funchal walking tours from €16. Small-group and private, half- and full-day, with hotel pickup and free cancellation on most - easy to book online.
