Cultural & Historical Tours in Madeira

Madeira's rich history spans over 600 years, from Portuguese discovery in 1419 through its role in Atlantic trade to its current status as a beloved travel destination. Cultural tours reveal this fascinating heritage through historic sites, museums, and traditional villages.

Walking tours through Funchal explore the UNESCO candidate historic center, including the 15th-century Sé Cathedral, the ornate São Lourenço Palace, and the cobblestone streets of the Zona Velha (Old Town) with their famous painted doors. The CR7 Museum celebrates Madeira's most famous son, Cristiano Ronaldo.

Beyond Funchal, tours visit the iconic triangular thatched houses of Santana, traditional basket sledge rides in Monte, and 16th-century churches decorated with hand-painted tiles. These experiences offer deep insight into Madeiran culture and traditions.
