The 2 Best Farm Visits in Madeira

1.“Re-Canto” Farm-to-Table with Stunning Views at Madeira

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 87 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $72Our pick

Join André at his hillside farm in São Gonçalo for Poncha, a garden walk, and a four-course dinner built around local produce and espetada. You may meet other diners while learning about Madeira’s food traditions. Vegetarian and vegan options are available, and the evening ends with a local digestif.

“What a wonderful night! Between the view, tour of the small farm, the simple yet delicious meal, stories of the family, and a wonderful mixed group we had exceptional time. It was easy to find and getting help for parking was efficient. We are very pleased with the night. If I come back to Madeira I will definitely repeat this experience.”

2.Private Banana Farm Tour with Pickup

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 7 reviews · 2.5 hours

Spend 2.5 hours with a private English- or Portuguese-speaking guide, visiting a Funchal banana farm and the lesser-known RG3 viewpoint. Learn how Madeira’s smaller, flavorful bananas grow, taste one fresh, and enjoy hotel or apartment pickup in Funchal, Caniço, or Câmara de Lobos.

“Very educational and fantastic engaging tour with Marco. We learnt a lot about Madeira and banana history + production. The pick up and drop off was seamless as well. Thank you!”
