    Great Day Out In Madeira

    Full Day Tour West Of Island with our guide Romero was an excellent day out. He was very thorough in explaining all the sights we were seeing and stopped at additional places se we could see more views of Madeira. The stops on the tour were all accompanied by a detailed explanation of what we would be seeing and an insight into the background of each place which was very welcome. We enjoyed all the stops along the tour but with the Porto Moniz stop being the only one we didn't get full value of for the only reason we aren't swimmers so didn't take full advantage of what looked like a fantastic location to have a dip. We also ignored Romero's advice regarding the restaurant to eat in and chose a very average overpriced tourist trap, we will listen to you next time . Overall it was an excellent trip and we wouldn't hesitate to book with Spot Madeira Travel the next time we come to Madeira. Many Thanks John & Jo

    Our first visit to Madeira

    The whole day was superb, we had Tony as our guide/Driver, he was very knowledgeable, funny and a very safe driver. A long day but you fit so much in,, so much to see and it wasn’t rushed, it was a nice relaxed tour. Would recommend.

    A really great trip. Our...

    A really great trip. Our guide, Robert, was very knowledgeable and imparted a wealth of information about Madeira. The tour was well-organised and ran to time and it was great to be in a small group. The stop at Porto Moniz was quite long if you didn't swim.

    Response from the operator: Thank You dear client !

    Fun tour! Lots of stops!

    Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the island. Be prepared to learn a lot!! When you get out to the hike, the trail had very fine, red dirt that will get all over your shoes so best to bring tennis shoes to change into.

    Response from the operator: Thank You dear client !

    Full-Day Porto Moniz Madeira Island Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Funchal.

    How much does Full-Day Porto Moniz Madeira Island Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $47 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Funchal usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Full-Day Porto Moniz Madeira Island Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Funchal is not rushed.

    Is Full-Day Porto Moniz Madeira Island Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 54 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Funchal, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Full-Day Porto Moniz Madeira Island Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Full-Day Porto Moniz Madeira Island Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Full-Day Porto Moniz Madeira Island Tour?

    +

    Around 19 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Funchal can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Funchal and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Full-Day Porto Moniz Madeira Island Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Funchal within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Funchal?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Funchal experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Jeep Tour Amazing West to Natural Pools -Full-Day, Porto Moniz, Seixal, Fanal Forest, Cliff Skywalk in Open Roof 4X4, West Tour-Fanal Forest & Porto Moniz Natural Pools Small Groups. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Funchal?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Funchal?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
