From start to finish, Michael was the consummate guide, sharing lots of factual info about beautiful Funchal. We weren’t rushed…he safely maneuvered the narrow streets up and down the steep hills of the city. We got to see amazing vistas from various locations, especially from The higher elevations. He was flexible as well as considerate, so we saw and learned so much about this unique location off the coast of Africa. (The weather canceled the toboggan ride; we had to be flexible ourselves.) Another outstanding Viator excursion!!

Had a lovely day with Roy. Chatted about the area as we drove through. A very relaxed way of seeing the local area around Funchal. When we got to Monte Roy went and got into the queue for the Toboggan ride while we got the tickets. He even offered to stay in the queue if we wanted to have a walk around. Waiting time was about 45 minutes. Would recommend this tour

Great event to do when in Madeira. It is safe, although everything about Health & Safety for us Brits is totally ignored. The trip takes about 8 minutes and makes you laugh all the way down the hill. The team of men who steer the toboggan make the whole thing look very easy, but I’m sure they need a massage at the end of the day. There are photographers strategically located down the route, so you can buy a photo at the end for €10, which does seem worth it, just to have the record of having completed it. The guys will ask for a tip, if you enjoyed it. €5 seemed to be fair. Don’t be fooled by the offers of the taxi drivers who want to take you back to Funchal. The buses are regular and €1.95 will be the price. The taxi’s want a lot more.
