Bookings for December dates only

This is a seasonal tour that runs every evening during December, when Madeira's famous Christmas lights are on. You can already see it here in November, but bookings can only be made for December dates — or contact me on WhatsApp for early reservations.

The tour

A magical one-hour evening tour through Madeira's world-famous Christmas lights. We start in Funchal, driving through the illuminated Avenida Arriaga, the Cathedral area and the Marina, past the festive Mercado dos Lavradores, and continue to the fishing village of Câmara de Lobos, whose bay is transformed into a giant nativity scene of light. Slow pace, photo stops at the best viewpoints, and return to your hotel. Available every evening throughout December.
