4x4 farmers market tour.
The 4x4 farmers market trip was excellent and far outweighed our expectations. We were the only two in the vehicle, so it was like a private tour as the driver told us all about the area. It is not all about visiting the farmers market, we went up in the mountains with spectacular views as well as stopping by a waterfall. The driver was always checking in with us that we were okay as we were stood in the back of the vehicle when we went on a long off road track. It was great fun, dipping and diving from the flora and forward. I would highly recommended this trip if you like to go off piste.

Extraordinary discovery with an outstanding guide
Very impressive trip on a 45° road, then visit a market and return via a special 4x4 track. breathtaking landscapes, just like the plants and trees encountered! Thanks to LINO, our incredible driver, who brought us back safely! It was all the more difficult as it rained a lot on the heights, but our driver mastered the mud, the ruts and the slips perfectly. Although we were impressed, we never felt in danger. Outstanding driver and guide: Lino explained lots of interesting things to us in French and did not hesitate to introduce us to the highlights of the route.

Great half day tour and driver
I was due to do this tour in February but was unwell. Glad I rebooked it. Pedro was such a lovely guide and a considerate driver, especially on the 4x4 off road sections, great fun. The weather was beautiful and I enjoyed all of the stops and viewpoints. It's always nice to book different company tours as they each have different stops. Will definitely look to book another Green Devil Safari tour when I'm back in my happy place, the beautiful island of Madeira

Fun Time!
We had a terrific time with Nelson! He accommodated our diverse group and provided a solid overall introduction to life on his island home. We had a blast off roading and eating our way thru the farmers markets!

So much fun
Had a great afternoon visiting the farmers markets but the highlight was off roading and getting a “Madeiran Massage” in the 4x4. It was absolutely exhilarating and the views were beautiful. Lino was a fantastic guide and driver and taught us a lot about the history of the island. He was funny, informative, and made the experience so much fun! Highly recommend for a half day excursion!

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
traditional Farmers Market Open 4X4 Half Day Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Funchal.
How much does traditional Farmers Market Open 4X4 Half Day Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $59 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 traditional Farmers Market Open 4X4 Half Day Tour take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 traditional Farmers Market Open 4X4 Half Day Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 10 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Funchal, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule traditional Farmers Market Open 4X4 Half Day 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 traditional Farmers Market Open 4X4 Half Day Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book traditional Farmers Market Open 4X4 Half Day Tour?
+
Around 4 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does traditional Farmers Market Open 4X4 Half Day 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.
