This was an amazing... - This was an amazing experience! We had a very knowledgeable guide and driver. He went above and beyond to show us his city! He explained ao many things to us and went off the original tour. The toboggan ride was so fun! Luis then took us to the garden which what we really just want to do is see more of this beautiful place! No problem for Luis, he took us to a lot if his favorite places! It was an amazing day! I really hope to come back to Funchal one day!! Thank you Luis, for showing us your beautiful city through your eyes! It truly has been the highlight if our trip!

Fabulous tour - Laura our guide was wonderful. She suggested the best itinerary to avoid crowds and we had the most amazing time-toboggan ride before it became too busy then suggested an alternative garden due to rain where we were originally going and finally a great tour of the old town. All i in perfect English. Laura was a really great guide and we will try to book her again when we come back to Madeira. Highly recommend.

Can't recommend this enough - Excellent. I recommend this tour. Our Tuk Tuk driver and guide Moises was brilliant. You get to see parts of Funchal inaccessible by bus. A worthwhile experience.

Very unique experience - Our guide Luis was very informational and well spoken. Unfortunately the toboggans were closed but we circled around the island to explore other parts of Funchal. I highly recommend this tour.

Tukway Madeira - The trip was excellent due to Andre our guide/driver who was not only great fun but also very knowledgeable, courteous & polite. His English was also excellent. We can thoroughly recommend him and Tukway Madeira.

"Flatlined" in Madeira - It was quite an interesting off-beat way to tour the city. Our driver Guy was very personable and explained all the sights as we drove along. However, the Basket line-up was over 1 1/2 hours long so we decided to replace it with a tour of the Old Town. However on the way back our Tuk Tuk got a flat tire. Since there was no spare or jack on board, we had to wait over an hour for someone to bring the equipment to us and repair our tire. By then we had to go back to our hotel as we had other commitments. As a result the trip was rather disappointing, but I have to say that Guy was as accommodating as much as possible under the circumstances. However I think that replacement equipment should have been stored on the vehicle so that this hour long wait wouldn't have occurred. So I can't recommend our particular tour although I think that the idea has some promise. However, I think it might be a better idea to have Basket tickets beforehand to avoid long wait lines.
