Funchal Old Town & Farmers Market Tuk Tuk Tour

Step aboard your private tuk tuk and begin your journey through some of Funchal’s most distinctive sights.

Your first stop is the colourful Mercado dos Lavradores, Funchal’s famous Farmers’ Market. Enjoy free time to explore the market independently, browsing stalls filled with tropical and subtropical fruits, exotic flowers, local produce, cheeses, and fresh fish. Your guide will wait nearby while you discover the market at your own pace.

Continue into Zona Velha, Funchal’s historic Old Town. Ride through narrow cobblestone streets lined with traditional buildings and discover the famous Rua de Santa Maria, where more than 200 doors have been transformed into an open-air art gallery by local and international artists. Along the way, your guide will share stories about Funchal’s history, culture, and everyday life.

Next, stop at Largo da Barreirinha, a relaxed seaside spot overlooking the Atlantic. Take in the ocean views, feel the sea breeze, and enjoy time for photos along this scenic stretch of Funchal’s coastline.

The tour then climbs to the Pináculo viewpoint, around 280 metres above sea level. From here, enjoy one of the most impressive panoramic views over Funchal Bay, the harbour, the coastline, and the surrounding mountains.

Throughout the journey, your private local guide will provide commentary and local insights from the tuk tuk, while allowing you time to enjoy each stop at a relaxed pace.

At the end of the tour, your guide can drop you off at a convenient location in Funchal, subject to the tour’s designated drop-off area.
