Bus Tours in Madeira

31 tours · €28–€210 per person · ★ 4.8

Madeira bus tours are how you cover an island built almost entirely of mountains, ravines and switchback roads you wouldn't want to drive yourself. With a driver-guide handling the hairpins, you watch the scenery instead: laurel forest, the sea cliffs at Cabo Girao, and the green amphitheatre around Curral das Freiras.

When you compare bus tours in Madeira, look at which side of the island the route favours. A full-day west loop chases waterfalls, the natural pools at Porto Moniz and the fajas near Seixal, while a highlights day trip stacks the classics: a toboggan down from Monte, the botanical gardens and a cable car over Funchal. Book a private guided tour for viewpoint stops on your own schedule; pick a small-group sightseeing trip when you'd rather settle in and ride.

31 Madeira bus tours from €28. Private and small-group, half-day and full-day with hotel pickup and free cancellation on most - easy to book online.
