When visiting Funchal, definitely take time to explore the charming Old Town with its cobbled streets and painted doors. The Mercado dos Lavradores is perfect for tasting local fruits and Madeira wine. Don’t miss the cable car ride up to Monte for stunning views and the famous toboggan ride back down. A
hop on hop off Funchal bus tour is a great way to see highlights like the botanical gardens and Lido promenade at your own pace.
