Very lovely day in Madeira - Today we did the private tour for Tobaggan, gardens with a stop for lunch. Luis is a great guide native to Madeira. Went to Tobaggan ride first to avoid long lines. It is so much fun — great experience! Cable car was in maintenance so missed that experience. Gardens were beautiful & lunch & island tour was lovely. My husband has mobility issue so Luis accommodated the entire day so my husband could fully participate. He is very knowledgeable on history & geography of the island. We recommend Luis for a personalized tour of Madeira - than you 🩷

Toboggan and Skywalk in Maderia - Originally we were supposed to go on the Cable car and the Toboggan, but the cable car was closed for maintenance. Our guide took us on the Toboggan, then the Botanical gardens, then the Skywalk and finished the trip with a visit to a fishing village. We were extremely happy with th whole experience, it gave us a chance to see what a beautiful island Maderia is.

Do Not Skip! - This is so much a part of Madeira history and unique to the island. Two guides glide you down a slick road in the traditional wicker sled-like toboggan. Keep in mind, the lines can get long (especially if multiple cruise ships are in port) and you cannot go down if it rains. It is on the pricier side of things to do but such a cool experience!

Would recommend to avoid queues and get a personalised service - We had Luis as our personal guide who picked us up straight from our hotel and took us around all the attractions. He was very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful and made our trip perfect. He sorted all our tickets beforehand so no queuing or waiting around and gave excellent recommendations.

deeply disappointing - Our experience was really disappointing. We visited on one day and found a two-hour queue, so we decided to return early the next day to avoid the wait—only to discover the kiosk had been shut down for the weekend. There was no signage at the kiosk to indicate this, and the only information available was on their website. This is poor communication, especially considering how easy it would have been to put up a simple sign the day before or even on the day itself to let people know what was happening.
