What are people saying about Funchal

Kelly_S, Oct 2026

We had a fantastic time...

We had a fantastic time with Madeira Sidecar Tours! Such a unique and fun way to explore Madeira, with beautiful scenery, great stops and an unforgettable experience. Filipe was friendly, knowledgeable and made the whole trip enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Madeira - definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

Fanal & Porto Moniz - West Madeira Tour

Yadira_R, Oct 2026

A Well-Organized Tour with Excellent Service and Comfortable Transportation

The tour was very well organized, and we visited many more places than I had expected! Daniela, our tour driver, was kind, professional, and an excellent driver. She was knowledgeable about the places we visited and did a great job showing us around. One thing I particularly appreciated about this tour operator was that they provided a van. I noticed that other companies offered similar tours in jeeps, with passengers packed in like sardines! I think this is an important detail to know in advance when choosing a tour. We were lucky to have a van, which gave us plenty of space and made driving between the different locations much more comfortable. Overall, it was a fantastic experience. Five out of five stars! I highly recommend this tour and this company.

I would definitely recommend the trip and Luis! The weather stopped is from sering the actual sunset but Luis stopped on the way back for a beautiful vista of Funchsl at night from the hills. A wonderful evening!

Day in Funchal/Madeira

We had a lovely day with our guide, Emanuel. Because it was a Sunday and the toboggans were closed, we were taken to see the beautiful Nun’s Valley and other breathtaking sights. Our cruise had us in port for 2 days, so we took the cable car up to see Monte’s Garden and Palace on our own. The toboggans were running that Saturday but we didn’t want to wait 2 hours in line.

Responsible Whales and/or Dolphins Watching Tour

Molly_R, Sept 2026

Amazing tour!!!!

Horst (sorry if not spelled right!) and Fransisco were great guides. Horst knew everything you could possibly think to ask him and was so passionate about the animals. I think he explained in detail about everything we saw in about 5 !? Languages. I am quite nervous on water but I felt really safe and secure on the tour, especially because the guide was so knowledgable about the animals. It was such a great tour and experience. Thank you so much!

PR1 take 2!... This time with a certified mountain guide

Perfect from start to finish! Friendly & helpful guide, safe driver and bonus of a short stop in Santana on the way back. I had previously attempted this hike solo and panicked after experiencing vertigo so rebooked with a guide for peace of mind. He was very kind and reassuring and I was able to complete the entire hike this time with my husband. Highly recommend this well organised tour- the views are breathtaking!

Private Madeira Island Tour: The Most Complete 8-Hour Experience

Ian_N, Jul 2026

Half Day Island Tour

This was one of the highlights of our trip to Madeira! The half-day private island tour was the perfect way to experience so many of the island’s breathtaking viewpoints and beautiful landscapes without feeling rushed. Having a private tour made all the difference. We were able to explore at our own pace, spend extra time at the places we loved most, and enjoy a relaxed, stress-free day without being tied to a large group or strict schedule. Our guide, Luis, was fantastic. He was incredibly friendly, fun to talk to, and had an impressive knowledge of Madeira’s history, culture, and natural beauty. Every stop came with interesting stories and insights that made us appreciate the island even more. If you’re visiting Madeira and want an easy, enjoyable way to see the island while learning about its history and culture, I can’t recommend this tour enough. The scenery is spectacular, the experience is completely stress-free, and Luis made the day even more memorable. We would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Madeira!

Whale and Dolphin Watching Tour in Madeira

Sofia_P, Apr 2026

A amazing morning trip!

We had the most incredible trip with Luca & Manny onboard! Luca was extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife of Madeira & Manny was a fantastic supporting host & camera man! We were lucky enough to follow a group of Fin Whales and we saw several blows. We also saw a dolphin, seal & jellyfish. We also stopped for a swim which was delightful. The boat was perfect for the small group of passengers and it was a very intimate trip. We thoroughly enjoyed and would highly recommend!! Thank you :)

The best way to see the West – amazing day with Miguel!

My girlfriend and I had an incredible tour of the western part of Madeira with Miguel. We were lucky enough to be the only guests, which turned the day into a fantastic private experience. Miguel is not just a knowledgeable guide but also a great person to talk to. We chatted about everything – from the island's history to general life topics – making the time between stops fly by. He was incredibly flexible, offering us alternative stops based on our interests and giving us plenty of time at every location without rushing. Plus, his insider tips for other activities on the island were super helpful. If you want a relaxed, personalized, and memorable tour, book with Miguel!
