“Alexis was great. He was very informative. Called us ahead of the tour to say the basket ride had stopped selling tickets and closed the que as it was a 4 hr wait. Did we still want to go ahead with tour or cancel. We went ahead as wanted to see Funchal and see the baskets even if we couldn’t ride them. I would recommend this tour to anytime visit Funchal looking to fill a few hours. We were picked up from the shop and returned to the ship. Thank you Alexis you were great. Tammy and Paul”

“Niestety nie podobała mi się. Powody: -Targ rybny był do 13.00 a wycieczka zaczynał się o 14.00 więc po co wpisywać to jako atrakcję skoro tego nie było -Zjazd saniami jest OK ale brak informacji że organizator dopiero będzie kupował bilety i trzeba będzie stać godzinę w kolejce - Awaria busa a na zastępczy trzeba było czekać 2 godziny więc wycieczka została przerwana”
