I had a great tour with Daniela. I did a half day tour. She picked me up at my hotel in old town and showed me Camara de Lobos which is a very quaint fishing village with a flair for art. Next we covered the downtown area from west to east. She gave me a great overview of the sites and history. I enjoyed her company and highly recommend requesting her. The open air Tuk Tuk was a fun way to explore the city.
Wonderful time with Pedro, he was very knowledgeable and patient, answering our questions. He took us up and down streets in the old down and pointed out various things of interest, stopping at a beautiful church for us to visit inside. We then went to a beautiful fishing village and let us have 30 minutes to walk around and then finally for an extra €30, he took us to the famous Skywalk. If your looking for a wonderful way to see Maderia, then the Tuk'Tuk ride is the best way to do it!!

We had a wonderful on the Madeira Grand Experience by Tukxi during our cruise port day in Funchal. Our guide was excellent—friendly, knowledgeable, and gave us a great introduction to the city's culture and sights. The tour was relaxed, informative, and a very enjoyable way to spend our day in Madeira. We especially enjoyed ending the tour at a local festival downtown, which was a fun and memorable way to experience the city. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Funchal!

We did a 6 hour tuk-tuk tour. We visited Nun's Valley, viewing it from above, then going down into the valley to see it from the floor up. We loved this, and my wife and I enjoyed a glass of chestnut liqueur which we didn't find anywhere else in our trip. After that we visited Pico de Arieiro, the third highest mountain on Madeira. This was spectacular. It's a long climb up in a tuk-tuk, but much more fun than in a car. Looking out over fields of clouds was an amazing experience. A highlight of our holiday. After that we did a bit of exploring in Funchal on our way back to our hotel. You don't get to see as much of the island in a tuk-tuk as you would in a car, but it's SO much more pleasurable. Our guide, Tiago Jesus, was excellent, highly knowledgable, and happy to take us wherever we wanted. This cost twice as much as the 90 minutes city tour, but was four times longer -- you know it makes sense!!! We will definitely book again if we ever return to Madeira, to explore different parts of the island.

We had a great afternoon with our guide Jesus; he took a lot of time to explain everything to us and also allowed us time to explore a bit. I would book it again just like that.

We took the Tuk Tuk tour in Madeira and it was fantastic. It’s a great way to see the highlights of the city and learn about its history. John was our guide and did an outstanding job. He was so knowledgeable and friendly and fun. And I had injured my knee and he helped me in and out of the Tuk. We were never rushed so we had long stops to make sure we saw everything. Also took us to a bakery that makes this wonderful dessert. Can’t remember the name but this place makes the original. I would definitely ask for John if I was going on the tour
