Madeira Island Tour a Must - The tour was excellent, a small number about 14. The guide sadly can't remember his name was brilliant. His knowledge was first class, as his ability to switch from English to French was remarkable. A trip that lived up to expectations, the scenery, and the guide made this a tour a must when visiting Madeira

Saw lots of great views - Very knowledgeable and entertaining guide. Not his fault the office changed the pick up point and sent me a link that didn't work until mid- morning.

Amazing Experience of the best of the West of Madeira - Everything from pickup to drop off was better than could be expected. The guide was very well educated about all of the area and spoke 5 different languages! The places we visited took in all the beauty and diversity of Madeira. Amazing views and experiences not to be forgotten. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone! I’m scared of heights and even did the walking on the glass floor!!

Can’t beat the scenery. - Wonderful scenery and the driver was great informing you about area and history. The roads were narrow so I am glad I wasn’t driving

Highly recommended - The tour was very well planned to get a first impression of the island. At lunchtime you have a longer stop to eat extensively. That's great!

Underwhelming and unprofessional - This tour did not go as expected, and the lack of professionalism from Lido fell far below what we anticipated. At one of the pickup locations, a guest failed to show up at the scheduled time. Our driver waited for a while but eventually decided to leave and proceed with the tour, as no one was present. However, well into the tour, the driver received a call from the office instructing him to turn back and pick up the late guest- significantly inconveniencing the other 15 participants. As a result, we lost about an hour before finally leaving Funchal for the second time. To make matters worse, the minivans are as cramped as budget airline seats. If you're tall, don't expect to have a comfortable ride. It seems maximizing profit takes priority over passenger comfort. We returned to Funchal just after 4:00 p.m., so take the tour duration times on the website with a grain of salt. While our driver/guide made a genuine effort to keep the mood positive, overall management at Lido was extremely disappointing. I submitted a complaint the same day but have never received a response! Sadly, it seems tourists are treated more like numbers than valued guests!!
