This is an incredible tour. We can't recommend it highly enough. The tuk tuk and driver were waiting at the pick up point and we're punctual. This is a private tour as the tuk tuk only takes 2 passengers and the driver. Luis the owner of the company and our guide/driver is a very professional, knowledgeable and friendly guy who speaks excellent English and is easy to understand. He is extremely obliging, nothing is too much trouble. When visiting Funchal, we highly recommend a tour with Tukway. You will not be disappointed.

Luis picked my daughter and me up from our hotel and the fun began. He took us round the little cobbled alleyways of old Funchal, stopped for us so we could buy some cactus fruit, visited the old fort for photos, then off to the beautiful Palheiro Gardens where he waited while we took in the breathtaking scenery and spectacular tropical flora. Then more tours through Funchal and back to the hotel. Altogether about 4 hours, as the time in the gardens is flexible. Garden tickets are not included btw. The tuktuk is a great way to travel round with the breeze cooling you down, and the canopy down for the views, and having a very knowledgeable guide who went out of his way to accommodate us made for a perfect afternoon’s trip. Thank you Luis! 😊

I highly recommend this tour! It was amazing and a great way to see a lot of Funchal in just a couple hours. Our tour guid Andrea was wonderful so full of information and such a kind warm person. We missed our connection coming into Funchal so we missed our original tour time. I messaged Luis the owner and he was kind enough to reschedule the tour for us. Not many companies are that gracious. It is worth every penny and I cannot say enough how much we enjoyed seeing Funchal this way. It was worth every penny and more!

Super, super, super!!! Das war eine Supertour mit Luis. Wir hatten viel Informationen bekommen gemischt mit vollem Spaß. Es war und das ohne zu übertreiben der beste Ausflug den wir jemals hatten. Hier wurde nicht auf die Uhr geschaut sondern nur auf unsere Wünsche eingegangen. Nochmal einmal einen herzlichen Dank an Luis und André für diesen Tag. Meine Empfehlung steht. Liebe Grüße René
