Funchal Old Town & Farmers Market Tuk Tuk Tour

Step aboard your tuk tuk and let the adventure begin in Funchal's lively Mercado dos Lavradores — the famous Farmers Market. Wander through vibrant stalls bursting with tropical fruits, exotic flowers, local cheeses, and fresh fish, while your guide shares the stories behind this beloved institution.

From the market, head into the heart of Zona Velha — Funchal's historic Old Town. Ride through narrow cobblestone streets lined with centuries-old buildings whose doors and walls have been transformed into a stunning open-air gallery of painted art. Over 200 doors along Rua de Santa Maria are each a unique work of art, created by local and international artists.

Next, the tour continues to Largo da Barreirinha, a charming sea stop where you can feel the Atlantic breeze and admire the dramatic coastline. This is a perfect spot for photos with the ocean as your backdrop.

The highlight of the tour is the Pináculo viewpoint, perched 280 metres above sea level. From this breathtaking vantage point, enjoy a sweeping panoramic view of Funchal Bay, the harbour, and the mountains that frame the city. Your guide will drop you off wherever you wish at the end of the tour.
