Three ideas for your trip
Funchal
Start with Funchal. Check visiting information, then explore the surrounding area without rushing.

Santana
Keep time for Santana. Confirm access for your dates and have an alternative if plans change.
Common questions
How many days should I plan?
A starting point is 5–7 days. Add time for arrival, transfers and a slower pace. This is a planning suggestion, not a minimum requirement.
Can I visit without a car?
Check transport from your accommodation to Funchal, Câmara de Lobos and Santana, including the return journey. Some outings may need an organised transfer. Do not assume all three fit into one day.
How much will the trip cost?
Prices depend on dates, room choices and activities. Use actual quotes in the budget calculator instead of treating a destination average as your price.
