Funchal City Tours — Explore Madeira's Capital

11 tours · €16.4–€390 · ★ 4.8

Funchal is Madeira's capital and the starting point for most tours on the island. The city sits on steep hillsides around a natural harbor, with a historic center compact enough to cover on foot in half a day.

The Mercado dos Lavradores is the main market, open since 1940. Ground floor: fishmongers selling espada preta (black scabbardfish) and fresh tuna. Upper level: passion fruit in five varieties, custard apples, tropical flowers. Walking tours from Funchal loop through the Old Town's Zona Velha, past the painted doors on Rua de Santa Maria, then up to Monte by cable car. The wicker toboggan ride back down has been running since 1850.

Food tours cover poncha (rum, honey, lemon), espetada on bay laurel skewers, bolo do caco, and Madeira wine tastings in historic bodegas. Tuk-tuk tours reach the steep alleys that walking groups skip. Sunset boat trips depart from the marina.
