• Forget the crowds : This is the way to see the amazing sides of Madeira

  If you are looking to escape the ordinary and skip the crowded tourist buses, Madeira Sidecar Tours is the way to go for it. From the moment we were picked up at our hotel, we knew we were in for a special treat. Riding in a vintage sidecar is such a unique and authentic way to explore Funchal and the surrounding cliffs; it felt like we had the whole island to ourselves. The wireless helmets are a brilliant addition because they allowed us to hear our guide’s passionate storytelling and local history in real-time, making every turn even more interesting. We liked how the experience was 100% private and tailor-made to our pace, taking us down narrow roads to hidden viewpoints and charming coastal villages that big buses simply cannot reach. The ride was incredibly safe and comfortable, and the sidecar itself serves as the perfect prop for some of the most stunning photos we’ve ever taken. It wasn’t just a sightseeing trip; it was a true journey filled with style and personality. We cannot recommend this private experience enough for anyone wanting a VIP perspective of Madeira.

• One day in Madeira

  I would highly recommend this activity. We were visiting Madeira for one day whilst on a cruise. Filipe contacted us directly to inform us he would meet us off the ship. As we only had one day he adapted the route so that we could see the highlights of the area. Our safety and comfort was a priority to Filipe, he took photos for us and then emailed them to us later on the day. Filipe shared lots of interesting information about Madeira and pointed out lots of things that we wouldn’t have noticed otherwise. He dropped us off in the old town and gave us instructions on how to get back to the ship, and ensuring that we would see the best of the old town area. When we are next in Madeira I will contact Filipe again to arrange another tour, the motorbike and sidecar is a really fun way to get around.

• Great experience and fun way to see Funchal

  We really enjoyed our sidecar tour with Luis. He picked us up right at our cruise ship and he gave us an awesome customized tour of the area. The motorbike was in great condition and we felt very safe and comfortable. The helmets allowed us to communicate and hear all of the fascinating things that Luis was sharing with us. Luis was a great guide and a great guy all around. It was an honor and a privilege to spend our time on the island with him. We hope to visit again for a longer stay.

• It is a fun and fantastic way to see the sights.

  This is the 2nd time we used this company to see the sights a bit of a different way. We had asked for Tino again for our guide. He is an asset to the company. Again, his knowledge was great, and the sights he took us to, wow, the views were stunning. Also, using the bike and sidecar helped stay ahead of the tour buses, so no big crowds to contend with. I couldn't recommend this company enough, and I will definitely use it again if ever back in Madeira. (A tip is to make sure you have a jacket or coat with you) Thank you again, Tino, for a very enjoyable few hours. Hope to see you again.

  Our second time and it won’t be our last! A fantastic tour again, seeing areas and towns you would not see on other tours, with a great guide (Nuno) who took us to views and spots away from the tourist hustle. In my opinion the best value on the island!

  The bike is extraordinary and definitely a ride to repeat! We didn't pass unnoticed anywhere in the middle of the streets of Funchal

  Went out to the east side if the island today with Felipe and had a great time. We had done the West Side previously with Nuno and that is highly recommended too. We were met off our cruise ship at the correct time and got underway with no problems taking in the town of Funchal and the outlying areas, including the Madiera statue of Christ the Redeemer. Felipe was very talkative and informative and happy to chat as we rode along through the helmet radios. Afterwards, we got dropped off in town and Felipe is going to email pictures to us to remember our trip by. Excellent company, a brilliant bike experience and great staff.
