Walking tour of Funchal
"Rosario gave us a good introduction to Funchal, even came to look for us when we were waiting by the wrong fountain, and helped us to navigate our way around Funchal including the best place to have a Poncha. She was charming and nothing was to much trouble."

Very Enjoyable Walk

Welcoming, informative and fun
"It was a pleasure meeting Rosario and having her walk us around Funchal with just the right amount of memorable information and a route that kept our attention across 3 generations. Rosario was able to answer all of our questions and was so kind in catering to the things we liked and brought maps! The tour was a super introduction to Funchal and really helped put our further plans to explore into perspective. Highly recommend!! Obrigada Rosario!! "

Great tour with Rosario!
"Our group of 4 active seniors had a great time on the walking tour of Funchal with Rosario. She showed us places we would never have found on our own, and she was very accommodating to anything we needed. She was knowledgeable, personable and flexible. Just what we wanted on our first trip to Madeira! A great afternoon!"

Lovely Rosario
"Rosoario was lovely and we were certainly introduced to the highlights which gave us a great experience in getting oriented to Funchal. She was also patient with our small attempts at gift buying for our grandchildren,. It was also a pleasure to visit Rosario's shop and meet her family. Thank you for making our first time in Funchal so enjoyable. Sincerely Catherine and Mike McCullough"
