The Hop On Hop Off Bus In Funchal, Madeira From The Top Deck
The easy, cheap way to see Funchal on a cruise day. An open-top double-decker loops the city and the coast with 21 stops: the old town, the harbour, the fishing village of Câmara de Lobos, Praia Formosa and the hotel zone, with audio in 14 languages and a bus every 25 minutes. Every ticket includes a guided walking tour and a free Madeira wine tasting. The main stop is a short walk from the cruise pier, and the 24 hour ticket covers a full port call.
Honest from the start: this is the budget option for Funchal. We tell you below which ticket to buy and when the taxi tour is the better day.
Three Tickets, And Which One A Cruise Guest Needs
All three include the bus, the audio, a guided walking tour and the wine tasting. The 48 hour tickets add the blue route, a night bus and the CR7 Museum, which only matter if your ship stays overnight. Prices per adult, child price for ages 4 to 12, children 0 to 3 free.

Zanimivosti na progi
- 1Začetek
Avenida do Mar And The Old Town
The seafront avenue by the marina, a short walk from the pier, with the old town, the cathedral and the market a few streets up. Begin and end here.
- 2Fishing Village
Câmara de Lobos
The painted boats in the little harbour, the bay Churchill painted, and a poncha in a bar by the water. The stop worth the longest stay.
- 3Plaža
Praia Formosa
Funchal's beach, black pebbles and a long promenade, for a walk or a swim if the ship gives you time.
- 4Hotel Zone
The Lido And Forum Madeira
The sea pools of the Lido, the promenade and the shopping centre. Easy stops for lunch or a coffee with a view.

Walking Tour And Wine Tasting
The historic centre walk at 11:00, Monday to Saturday, and the free Madeira wine tasting at a wine lodge in the centre. Both on every ticket.
A Port Day In Funchal With The Bus
Walk from the pier to Avenida do Mar, hop on, ride the full loop once for the overview and the commentary, then get off at Câmara de Lobos and in the old town. Fit the wine tasting in before the walk back to the ship. With a bus every 25 minutes you never wait long, and the loop ends where you started, by the port.
When the bus is the wrong choice. If you want the mountains and the Nuns' Valley, take our private taxi tour; the bus does not go there. If you want to understand Madeira wine properly, the private winery tour and six wine tasting is a different league from the free tasting on this ticket. The bus is the cheap, easy day, and that is exactly what some port days need.
Why Only For Cruise Guests
Club Canary is a local tour platform from the Canary Islands. We sell what we know, on the islands where we live and work, and Madeira is not one of them, so we do not sell to people staying on Madeira, out of respect for the local companies that do. When your ship calls at Funchal between the Canary Islands, this is one of the port days we arranged for you, with the same booking and the same WhatsApp team as the rest of your trip.
Jamstvo najboljše cene: we check the direct prices, so booking with us is never more expensive. Instant confirmation, a voucher valid for a year, and real people on WhatsApp every day from 08:00 to 22:00.

We will be straight with you: this is the simple, cheap option for Funchal, not the special one. If you want the special one, our private wine tasting in taxi tour to Nuns' Valley are the days we would pick ourselves. But if you are a family, a group on a budget, or you just want to see the coast and Câmara de Lobos from the top deck without a plan, twenty six euro and a bus every 25 minutes is hard to argue with.
Buy the 24 hour Iconic, ride the red loop once, get off in the old town and at the fishing village, and use the free wine tasting as your excuse for a sit down. Back at the ship in time, nothing to organise.
The easy, cheap way to see Funchal from a cruise. Book the 24 hour, skip the rest.
