From the tour
A 2.5 to 3 hour guided walk through the whole of Funchal, a city full of history with surprising ties to international events. This is not a simple walking tour. You get raw knowledge about the island, from fun facts to our nature and plants. The maximum group size is 30 people, and it costs 16€ per person when you book direct.
This is not a script read from a card. Our guides know the subject, and they show how Madeira connects with international history, linking what happened here with what was happening in Portugal and the rest of the world at the same time, so the stories make sense as a whole.
Along the way you learn fun facts and real knowledge about the island, including our nature and plants. It is the kind of detail you would walk past without noticing if nobody told you.
The walk covers the whole of Funchal, including hidden corners most visitors never see. You leave with a better feel for the city than a list of dates.
