Funchal walking tour

Friendly funny anecdotes. Given that some where having trouble walking perhaps stop at the bottom of the park instead of going all the way up. Other than that interesting and time well spent.

Jennifer Linell · October 2026

Great tour to discover Funchal

Tomas was really friendly, had a great mixture of history, culture and even introduced us to some typical plants of the island. Duration of 2,5 hours was just right. The only unfortunate thing was the address of the meeting point was the wrong house number - it was 100 meters away from the one given in the email.
