Our tip: start at the first bus around 9:30 am to make the most of the 24 h window, and head straight to Câmara de Lobos before it gets busy. We found fewer people there in the morning and the light was better for photos. The bus back via the coast was relaxing and scenic.

We only had one full day, so the 24‑hour 2‑in‑1 ticket was perfect. The route took us from downtown Funchal through the charming fishing village of Câmara de Lobos, with plenty of stops. We hopped off where we liked, had lunch, then re‑boarded. The bonus audio guide in many languages made it even better.

If you want a stress‑free way to see two of Madeira’s highlights in a day, this is it. The bus arrived regularly (about every 30‑45 minutes as advertised), and we appreciated the freedom to hop off and back on. The open‑top upper deck gave amazing photo opportunities of Funchal’s bay and the coastal cliffs. For the price, excellent value.

Travelling with our two children, the open‑top deck of the Yellow Bus was fun, and we appreciated that the bus route took us up into the hills around Funchal with sweeping views of coast and cliffs. It gave us time to explore without stressing about how to get back.

For someone who doesn’t rent a car, the 2‑in‑1 Yellow Bus hop‑on hop‑off is a smart move in Madeira. It got us to places we might not have seen otherwise, at a pace that wasn’t frantic. We hopped off at the market in Funchal, then again at the viewpoint above the city. Very enjoyable.

We chose the 24‑hour 2‑in‑1 route to cover Funchal + Câmara de Lobos and found it to be a smart decision. The information (via headphones) pointed out interesting sights we would otherwise have missed, like viewpoints and local history. The staff were courteous and the bus was clean and comfortable. Highly recommend for first‑time visitors.

This was the perfect mix of convenience and sightseeing. We were able to get off near the farmers’ market, explore for a bit, then ride up to the hills for some incredible views over Funchal. Loved it!

We were only in Madeira for 24 hours and chose the Yellow Bus tour to maximise our time. It didn’t disappoint — clean bus, clear commentary, plenty of stops. The top deck views were especially useful for spotting landmarks and orienting ourselves. Good choice.

The Yellow Bus 2-in-1 ticket was an excellent way to see Funchal in just one day. The routes covered all the main highlights, from the old town to the coastal viewpoints. The buses were clean, comfortable, and arrived on time.
