Where to Stay
Funchal is Madeira's capital city and is where I recommend staying while in Madeira. It's convenient, close to the airport, and a popular pick-up point for Madeira tours and day trips around the island.
Transportation
From the Airport:
You can find a shuttle bus in front of the airport at the Arrivals Gate which stops in Funchal. The cost is about 5€. If there is no shuttle bus available at the time of your arrival, there are many taxis available as well. A taxi to Funchal will cost about 30€. The drive is 35 minutes from the airport to Funchal.
Getting Around the Island:
