Description
There’s something special about Funchal on a Sunday morning.
The city awakens gently, cafés open their doors, the fresh scent of the morning drifts through the streets and the sunlight glimmers on the tiled pavements. This is the perfect moment to explore Madeira’s capital at a slower pace guided by someone who knows its secrets.
Join our certified local guide for a 3 hour walking tour designed for those who enjoy leisure, culture and authentic gastronomy. More than a simple walk, this experience invites you to see, taste and feel the soul of Funchal as we wander through historic lanes and lively squares, discovering the city’s layered history.
Of course, no Sunday stroll would be complete without indulging in the island’s flavours. Throughout the morning, you’ll enjoy a relaxed local herbal tea with a traditional pastry, artisan chocolates with coffee or ‘’ginja’’ (a cherry licour), you will visit an historic wine cellar to savour Madeira wine and in a hidden place taste some delightful cheeses, chorizo, bread and jam with a glass of Portuguese wine, local beer or local beverage.
This walk is a gentle blend of culture, taste and discovery, a chance to explore flavours, stories, and corners of Funchal that locals treasure. Doesn’t matter if it’s your first time in Madeira or your tenth, a Sunday morning here is best spent strolling at ease, savouring each moment and enjoying good company.
