SPINACH TOURS EXPANDS ROUTES IN FUNCHAL


The famous green cars now offer three routes on the island, making them the perfect companions for a picturesque and unique view of Madeiran culture. You can also now book guided excursions.

 

Spinach Funchal has strengthened its presence on Madeira Island, with updated routes and the introduction of guided excursions. Madeira is one of Portugal’s top tourist destinations, so it’s only natural that the iconic green electric cars have made their mark here too.

Just like in Lisbon, the Algarve, and Cape Verde, the experience in Madeira is designed to offer a unique and charming perspective on local culture, blending fun and education seamlessly. Along with the “Funchal Express,” “Câmara de Lobos,” and “Madeira Gardens” routes, you can now also opt for guided excursions. This option includes a guide and is perfect for those who want to fully enjoy the experience without worrying about directions or driving. All experiences allow you to park the car and take in the parks, viewpoints, and monuments.

Spinach cars are electric, easy to drive, and seat two people. The best part? They talk, sharing historical facts with passengers in a fun and engaging way.
