Joao was our driver. He was fantastic, very knowledgeable and friendly. We had a great tour going up into the forest and then back down to Christ the Redeemer statue. Prompt pick up and dropped back to our hotel. I would fully recommend this and easy to book too.

Our guide Sebastian was punctual arriving at our hotel to pick us up. He was a very good driver & gave a good narration about various sights on our trip to Garajau. Would highly recommend this company, and you could focus on viewing the sights from the back of a Tuk tuk & not feel rushed at all. Lovely way to see the city.

We were on a Princess cruise that stopped in Madeira, and were picked up right where we disembarked the ship. Funchal is such a beautiful city. And having locals take you through a place they love is the way to go! There were 6 of us so we booked 2 Tukxis. Rosato and John not only spoke excellent English, but they also were excellent drivers and we felt safe the entire time. (The 6 of us played musical chairs so we each got to experience their driving as well as their commentary.) They provided a real snapshot of history and culture of Madeira. Really recommend this tour if you have a short time - that is - a one day port stop on a cruise. Warning - you will want to return to Madeira!

A great 2-hour trip through the city and out to the statue of Christ. Our guide Needia was really friendly and knowledgeable - great fun to be with. Felt completely safe in the TukTuk. We initially wanted to do the electric SMART car tour, but it was fully-booked, so this was actually our second choice. However, I’m now really glad we did this instead - highly recommended. Thanks again, Needia, for a memorable trip.
