Our guide was the lovely Margarida who took us up to Monte, walked with us to the ticket office for the toboggan and made sure we knew where to go. The toboggan was fun and we were lucky as there were no long queues. Our guide met us at the end and as we still had time she took us to a local bakery to try the Cheesecake. It was unique. She then took us to a fortress which had a lovely view of Funchal. Overall a lovely morning.

We had the pleasure of having the same tour guide, Joao, as we had with our first tukxi tour. This Tobaggon ride was awesome and so much fun! Joao as usual went above and beyond, helped us get our tickets for the ride then stood in line for us so we could look around the property to get nice photos. He waited for us at the bottom of the hill after the ride then allowed us to do a little souvenir shopping at the tobaggon ride shop. We left there then he showed us more places to eat on the way back to our hotel. I would highly recommend this guide, he tailors any tour he gives to the personalities of his clients. Super tour and guide!!!

Perfect way of getting there and back from the toboggans. Met us straight outside our cruise ship and waiting for us at the end of the toboggan run to pick us up. Happy to drop us in town or back at the ship. Our driver was lovely and very informative.
Would definitely use again next time we're in Madeira.
