Airport Car Rental
A large Atlantic island, Madeira combines the warm weather of the Canaries with the stunning volcanic scenery of the Azores. Whether your goal is to hit the beach, go into the mountains, or sample local delicacies — or, indeed, why not all three? — you’re going to have a great time. These are three of Madeira’s main attractions:
- Funchal. The largest city of Madeira is the main port of entry for foreign visitors, but it’s also one of its main attractions. Located on the island’s southeastern coast, it is home to many notable religious and secular buildings, as well as attractions like the Lavradores Market and Monte Palace Hotel Gardens. Many of Madeira’s best accommodations can also be found here.
- Câmara de Lobos. Called the chamber of the wolves in Portuguese, this village’s name actually refers to the monk seals — “the wolves of the sea”. Although nowadays the sightings of these marine mammals are much rarer than during the arrival of the traveler João Gonçalves Zarco who gave the area its name, Câmara is still a lovely place to visit, mainly thanks to its wild shoreline and Cabo Girão, one of the highest coastal cliffs in the world.
- Laurisilva. Located in the most elevated, inland part of the island, this ancient laurel forest is one of Madeira’s most notable natural attractions. Recognized as a World Heritage site, it is believed to be 1.8 million years old and is home to many prehistoric ferns and other plant species. It is important to take care inside the park not to damage the local flora and fauna, but there are several designated hiking paths that permit visitors to enjoy the natural beauty of the area.

Car is good enought for mountain road in Madeira, but if you have more funds for Diesel or car with more power will be better (sometimes we need ride by 1st gear by 2-3 kilometers, or lost power on highway with 10% level)

A car is essential if you want to see Madeira. The scenery is spectacular, the roads good and local driving standards are excellent. However be prepared for some steep mountains and lots of hair pin bends.

Madeira is hill after hill and tight in space, so I wouldn't recommend renting a car if you aren't an experienced driver or if you tend to panic behind the wheel - you will definitely encounter some tricky situations during your rides. Most of the roads are in good condition except for some places outside the main roads where we did encounter huge holes you need to avoid. Get a car with a support system to help you get up those steep hills, it will make your life easier.

Definitely we were glad that we rented a car as we could visit many amazing places in Madeira. It was so easy to check in/out and there were no hidden costs. I highly recommend to rent a car via Discover/Madeira Rent-A-Car!

Car with automatic transmission was very helpful on the steep roads. :)
Besides the most popular spots, we recommend to visit Eira do Serrado viewpoint, Ponta Delgada town, drive along the coastline of the island. :)

We had a broken transmission on the second day. It took an hour for the towing car and a taxi. That was oké. I was brought to the airport where I got a new car. It was handled oké apart from the fuss that I had to pay for the gas for a 100 km while I missed my guided tour through Funchal.

I went around the island and took the car into very interesting places. One needs to be careful when starting the car and shifting from manual to automatic...Make Sure you have the hand brake on every time you start the car and put it on when you park.
