A toboggan ride in MadeiraThere are a lot of exciting things to do and see at madeira. Here a couple of the options:

  • A toboggan ride (in a wicker basket) down the steep narrow streets of Monte is about as exhilarating as it gets. This ancient white-knuckle ride is now a top tourist attraction although it used to be the local's way of getting from top to bottom. Great fun!

  • Boat trips to the unspoiled neighboring island, Porto Santo.

  • Walking in the breathtaking countryside following the 'levedas' - small canals constructed to irrigate the land.

  • There are two golf courses in the island: Santo da Serra (27-hole) and Palheiro (18-hole).

  • Funchal offers culture, museums, art galleries and beautiful gardens. Shopping around the maze-like streets of the old town is a voyage of discovery.
