We have booked for the Tukxi Botanical Garden Tour. We were picked up by a lovely lady driver who was also talking to us about the city and the views we were passing, she was super nice but we didnt catch her name unfortunately. We got picked up from and dropped off at our hotel and driven in Tuk Tuk Taxi through the city and to the botanical garden where we had an hour to walk around and see lots of lovely plants and take in breathtaking views. The lady was waiting for us outside when we finished the garden walk and she took us through some more touristy bits in town talking us through everything we seen on our way which was lovely. It was such nice private tour which was great for us as I am currently pregnant so we couldn't book other all day trips as they would be too tiring and this was absolutely perfect, comfortable and good lenght of time for a little time out of our hotel and into seeing a bit of Funchal and had a lovely stroll around the botanical gardens. Perfect if you want to relax and enjoy the views as the speed of tukxi is perfect to take everything in as you pass by. Thank you so much for the tour, we have really enjoyed it!
