Great Time Despite the Rain! - Rui and Andre were fantastic. Unfortunately we did not get to do the sledding due to rain, these two gave us a great experience and tried to show us parts of Funchal that we had not already seen. It was an adventure that was fun despite being wet.

Madeira Tuk Tuk - Tuk Tuk picked us up on time at the cruise ship and Luis was wonderful. He took us up to the toboggan run early so there was no line. We then had a great tour of the town. Was a great way to spend our day. No crowds and no lines.

Brilliant tut tut and basket ride, brilliant fun! - Our driver was Lydia, she was a wonderful young lady, she was funny, full of knowledge about the area, she was on time and we had time kept as we left early and we were the first in the queue, she picked us up at 8.30am, and. I one waiting, we lived everything about the baskets, we had the tour which picked us up in the tut tut, I don’t know which was most fun the baskets which we lived but also the tut tut with the roof down, first class trip absolutely adored it!!! So much fun.
