About Us

The role of Funchal City Council is determinant in the quality of the tourism product of a region. It is at the local level that experiences are lived. The motto of the Portuguese Tourism Board is Receiving Well, offering a good tourist product and unique experiences. We know that it is at the local/municipal level that tourists perceive whether or not they are well received, so the responsibility of municipalities in this matter is great.
A holistic vision of the tourism product is needed, which increasingly has to be based on excellence and differentiation. New sensations and strong emotions are what today’s tourists most seek.
