Best things to see in Madeira’s beautiful Funchal on a star-studded cruise this autumn
Now a new cruise from Imagine Cruising is offering a great opportunity to get a taster of the hotspot, with the Ultimate Cunard Canaries Sailcation offering an overnight stay in Funchal (onboard the ship). Still, that means ample opportunity to explore Funchal – and we’ve put together some of the highlights that are well worth adding to the bucket list.
The Old Town: History buffs will want to leave time to stroll through the picturesque streets with its intricate architecture and colourful buildings. Art fans, make sure to check out Rua de Santa Maria where the doors and walls have been transformed into spectacular artwork.
Madeira Botanical Gardens: Explore an impressively diverse array of colourful floral displays – and make sure to head to the western edge of the gardens for amazing views across Funchal Bay.
