Great views and freedom to explore - This is not a tour, more of a drive to the places with commentary on board and then you are left to explore by yourself. The view is amazing and worth the trip alone but the vehicle we were in was insufferably hot which tainted the experience as it was a very hot day.

A valley well worth seeing. - Good excursion to the Nun's Valley with a stop at Camaro dos Lobos, a splendid viewpoint over the valley and in Curral das Freiras, the village in the bottom of the valley. Enjoyable afternoon with informative driver and small group. The road to the viewpoint would not be one I'd attempt myself and if you were driving you'd miss all the magnificent views so an excursion was the best option.

Scenic Tour of Nuns Valley - This was a pleasant afternoon tour to some scenic locations on the way to Nuns Valley. Our guide and driver was deeply knowledgeable about this area and adept at giving multilingual explanations for what we saw. We first stopped in a cute seaside town, followed by viewing Nuns Valley from an upland viewpoint. The driver then took us down a long tunnel to Nuns Valley. We had around 35 minutes to tour this small town on our own and to sample some of the local baked goods made with chestnuts (delicious!). Before long, we headed back to Funchal for the end of our tour. It would have been nice to be in a slightly bigger bus, as it felt cramped with 16 people occupying all the seats. I also want to give a shout out to Bea in the Lido Tours office who was extremely helpful in arranging this tour. She also provided useful information about the Porto Santo ferry trip, which I ultimately did not take.

Good Short Break - Lovely Holiday but be aware its extremely Hilly - so leave the heels at home. I would recommend the Botanical Gardens & defo do the Tobogganing for the fun.

You might miss out on the... - You might miss out on the view because of the mist, it is just your luck at the time! The village at the bottom is nothing interesting to be honest. Seeing the old road that used to connect the village is pretty mind boggling!
