The 11 Best E-Bike Tours on Madeira

1.Guided E-bike Tour of the North Coast

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 130 reviews · 4 hours · from $76Our pick

Half-day guided e-bike ride along Madeira’s north coast, from Boaventura through laurel forests to sea viewpoints, with small-group pickup.

“What an adventure! This E-bike tour gave us a great chance to admire the gorgeous scenery on the North side of Madeira and to travel with a fun group and a knowledgeable guide. Some things to know for folx considering this tour…make sure to be flexible with the pickup time and location as it may change the night before. This is an incredibly mountainous area and you will be going up and down steep hills. The whole trip is on the roads with fairly constant traffic so you need to be comfortable with road riding. The bikes’ electric assist worked well but some of the bikes were pretty beat up.…”

2.Camacha: Levada Trail e-Bike Guided Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 115 reviews · 3.5 hours · from $82

Ride e-bikes along Camacha’s levadas to the UNESCO laurel forest. Small group, hotel pickup, forest scents, sheep views, 3.5 hours.

“What a wonderful way to see and learn about a part of Madeira. The path was great, challenging enough to keep our kids engaged and not too challenging that one could not make it. It was nice to also learn a few things about the trees and plants on the way. The group size is max 8 which is perfect. And the short stop at the beautiful golf course where we had tea and cake was an unexpected surprise 🤩. Can highly recommend to anyone that wants to take a break from all the hiking on the island!”

4.Madeira West coast: Guided Sightseeing E-Bike Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 43 reviews · 3.5 hours · from $76

A small-group e-bike ride along Madeira’s west coast, from Prazeres to the Miradouro do Fio, with guide-led stops and big views.

“We hadden goede fietsen en hebben een mooie tocht gemaakt over zeer rustige wegen. Leuke uitleg onderweg over wat lokale dingen in Madeira. Dat we dezelfde weg retour gegaan zijn is wel begrijpelijk maar ook een beetje jammer. De gids let goed op zijn groep en houdt rekening met iedereen zodat er bij niemand spanningen ontstaan en iedereen kan genieten van het mooie wat Madeira te bieden heeft.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 5 reviews · 7 hours · from $93

7-hour e-bike ride from Ponta do Pargo for sea views, cliffside stops, and off-road fun with a local guide. Small group.

“Très belle excursion en vélo à la pointe ouest de Madère. Notre guide Ricardo est un enfant du pays et nous a fait découvrir toute une variété de paysages et belvédères vertigineux. Nous avons parcouru 25 kms alternant entre petites routes goudronnées, sentiers, pistes sur terrains caillouteux, poussiéreux ou boueux. Les vélos sont des mountain eBikes, très puissants car il fallait monter des côtes avec de très forts dénivelés. Passages tantôt découverts ou dans la forêt. À recommander.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3 reviews · from $55

Self-guided e-bike ride from Funchal to Garajau with Garmin GPS and a stop at Cristo Rei viewpoint, short, scenic, and great value.

“We were met by Oscar who bought a selection of bike sizes to make sure we had the right ones. The bikes were like new and so smooth. The battery was phenomenal getting us easily up the hills despite them being so steep. The helmets were new and clean and the Garmin showed the route clearly. Although we were on roads they were generally quiet and we had no issues with traffic. We had a great morning and can’t rate MAD cycles high enough. If in doubt - book it and enjoy!”
