Free walking tours in Funchal

Probably the most interesting free tour I have done!

Great Tour, gave us a lot of tips concerning our stay!

We enjoyed this tour with Eduardo through Funchal. It was perfect to get a good overview about the city. We as None-Native-English-Speakers we could understand the English of Eduardo also very well, and we can recommend this tour to everybody.

Really enjoyed our tour with Mia, gave us a lot of interesting information, pointed out some local tips/hotspots and was very approachable; feel we're definitely more equipped to get around Funchal afterwards! Thank you very much Mia ❤️

Mia hat uns eine super Stadtführung gegeben und konnte sehr viel Interessantes berichten. Sie ist auf alle Fragen eingegangen und wusste die entsprechenden Antworten. Des Weiteren konnte Sie auch mit 2,3 Überraschungen den Rundgang noch interessanter gestalten. Ich kann jedem den Rundgang mit Mia empfehlen. Mia has given us a super Tour around the city with lots of interest information about the History and City itself. She is super easy going and has a lot of good knowledge, even if we asked her questions. I would recommend to everyone to do this tour with Mia as she offers also some surprises during this tour.

A fantastic tour by Mia. We learned so much about the history and culture of Funchal and Madeira. Highly recommended as a starting activity for a stay.

Eduardo is great! Funny and full of interesting informations!

Pedro and Marco are very funny and great conversationalists. I was glad to meet them and the other pubcrawl participants. We visited three bars, and they were all great. I recommend them!

We book this tour as an alternative to the cruise excursion. The tour with Gabriel was on a Sunday. Everything was closed. If it weren't for him, our day would be full of pictures without meaning. He stopped at all main locations, explained all the history, curiosities and also answer to all our questions. He also recommended a local restaurant out of the tourist trail that was super affordable and delicious. He is 10 out of 10!

Interesting tour to places we might not have seen on our own.

Small group and that was awesome - pretty good pub crawl!

Liliana was an excellent guide - very knowledgeable and personable. We definitely recommend her tour, you will learn a lot about the history of Madeira and Funchal, and visit the main sites of the city. Thank you, Liliana for the fantastic morning!

Quedamos muy contentos. Nos llevamos muy bien con Gabriel que de primeras nos hizo sentir muy bienvenidos a la ciudad. Aprendimos un montón del tour y descubrimos rincones de la ciudad que no habríamos visto por nuestra cuenta. Respondió a todas nuestras preguntas a lo largo del tour demostrando mucho conocimiento local.

Gabriel was everything you need in a guide: informative,enthusiastic and delivered his talk with a bit of fun. Excellent walking tour.

Went to areas of the city we would not have found on our own. Very informative guide who answered all our questions. Well worth doing.

Really enjoyed this tour & totally recommend it to anyone who is visiting Funchal

We had a fantastic walking tour of Funchal with Gabriel! He is a young, energetic guide who immediately draws you in with his engaging storytelling style. His knowledge of the city, its history, and local culture is truly impressive, and he shares it in a way that keeps you interested throughout. What stood out most was how smart and insightful he is—Gabriel doesn’t just give facts, he connects them in a meaningful way that makes the city come alive. His enthusiasm is contagious, and it made the entire experience both fun and memorable. If you’re visiting Funchal, I would highly recommend taking a tour with Gabriel—you’ll walk away with a much deeper appreciation of the city!

Gabriel was knowledge, cheerful and generous. He involved everyone in the group and loved the passion he has for madeira.

I can highly recommend the tour with Eduardo. Plenty of information (but not too much), funny anecdotes, good overview of the city. He made sure we where at the cathedral and the market before they closed.

Eduardo is truly the ⭐️ Funchal walking tour legend — the Cristiano Ronaldo of guides! From the moment the tour started, his energy was infectious. He brought Funchal to life with a perfect blend of deep knowledge, local stories, and humour that kept us engaged every step of the way. Whether it was history, culture, or hidden gems, Eduardo knew it all — and delivered it in a way that was fun, relatable, and never overwhelming. What really sets him apart is his personality. He doesn’t just guide you — he connects with you, making the experience feel personal and memorable. We laughed, we learned, and we saw the city through the eyes of someone who genuinely loves what he does. If you’re visiting Funchal, don’t miss a tour with Eduardo. He doesn’t just walk you through the city — he scores a hat-trick every time! ⚽️

The tour was very informative. Thank you Mia!

We attended the tour from a Marella cruise ship. The meeting place was a short walk from the port. There were only 2 other people on the walk so it was intimate and very informative. Mia showed us around places of historic and cultural interest that we did not see on our last visit to Funchal, self guided. She had a really good knowledge of the city and explained everything to us. The walking tour took 2 hours and was really good. I would recommend anyone visiting Funchal to do Mia's walking tour.

Mia was a very friendly and informative guide. Would recommend her.

Eduardo provided an outstanding tour. He is so knowledgeable, interesting attentive and delightful. He augments his tour by showing related photos as he is discussing historical information. We learned so much, and enjoyed the tour thoroughly!

Gabriel was an excellent guide, and the tour was fantastic thanks to him. I highly recommend him!
