Have you ever been to Funchal?

Madeira - Funchal: Stylish and sophisticated, Funchal is the bustling capital and main tourist resort on the island of Madeira which in 2008 celebrated its 500th anniversary as a city. Its name derives from the Portuguese word for fennel (funcho) apparently after Italian sugar merchants noticed how the plant grew in abundance on the cliffs surrounding the bay.

What People Are Saying

★★★★★
"We spent a lovely day with Lucy visiting a banana plantation, where we could ask all our questions about banana famring. Then we went to a center for agricultural development (fruit trees) where we saw many different kinds of fruit trees and learned about grafting methods. After that we visited a banana cooperative and saw how the bananas are delivered and packaged. Afterwards we headed to Henriques&Henriques for some wine tasting before going for lunch where we had traditional food from Madeira. To finish off the day we saw a farm with dairy and meat cattle. We really appreciated Lucy's vast knowledge about agriculture and Madeira in general. We had a great time and recommend the it to anyone who wants to do a tour that is a bit different from the other touristic tours. "

The jeep with the open roof allows you to take in Madeira with all your senses. Would recommend this tour for everyone who loves nature and wine. "
