“Fantastic tour starting with pick up from hotel and trip up the mountain to toboggans (buy tickets there). Met driver at bottom following an awesome trip down by Sledge to begin tour. The Tuk Tuk was great fun and a terrific way to see Funchal and really interesting to learn about the history. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to see the sights in a slightly different way than by coach or taxi.”
Private tuk tuk to Monte, then toboggan down to Old Town in Funchal, with pickup and English guide. Flexible drop-off.
“Had a lovely ride in the tuk tuk with Ricardo who did some stops along the way up to Monte. He has a great sense of humour and we both throughly recommend using this tour as an alternative way to explore the Island. The tobogganing is 100% worth it and will set you back 35 euros for 2 people for the ride. I advise booking this tour early to avoid the queues. We booked 9:30am, this was only a 10 minute wait at the top. Stopped off in the farmers market on the way down and by the santa maria church for some photos. Give it a go, it's fun…”
