Free cancellation if canceled at least 48 hours before the start of the experience.
Description
Sunday mornings in Funchal have a distinctive atmosphere. The historic centre moves at a slower pace, cafés begin to welcome locals and visitors alike, and the city becomes ideal for a relaxed walk. Led by a certified local guide, this experience offers an engaging way to experience Madeira’s capital through its history and gastronomy.
Throughout this walking tour, you will stroll along traditional squares, cobbled streets and some of the city’s most characteristic corners while hearing stories and insights connected to Funchal’s past.
The culinary part of the experience begins with a local herbal tea served alongside a freshly made Pastel de Nata. Later, you will sample artisan chocolates paired with coffee or a glass of ginja, the traditional cherry liqueur.
The tour also includes a visit to a historic wine lodge where you will taste renowned Madeira wine, one of the island’s most iconic products. The route continues at a local restaurant serving traditional vinha d’alhos, pork marinated in wine and garlic, accompanied by Portuguese wine or local beer.
An excellent option for travellers wishing to experience Madeira’s culture through its flavours, stories and the calm atmosphere that defines Sunday mornings in Funchal.
