Red line - I made a trip on the red line with the driver Sérgio where he advised us to leave in Camara de Lobos where since I thank you for the indication because I liked the village where we took advantage to try the typical "spetada" and "regional poncha" also advised by the same. I will repeat and advise all my family and friends.

Great way to see the island - I really liked the tour that Vanessa recommended. She really knows the service well and left at the peak of the barcelos as she indicated. Optimal service, that any tourist who comes to Madeira should do

Top everywhere, in Funchal Flop! - We do a tour in every major city. We've never been so disappointed. For most of the ride, it was just terrible music. If information came once (it was scarce), usually time-delayed. Just not recommended in Funchal.

A disastrous red bus tour in Funchal - We took the Red Bus circuit around Fuchal and Camara de Lobos yesterday. It was really bad. The earphone commentary was completely inaudible as the bus engine was so loud. The driver made absolutely no attempt to speak to the clients, he just raced between pickup points,, giving no indication of what to see or do. We thought that we were going to be able to do wine tasting and visit a shopping centre during the Hop on, Hop off tour. The visit around Funchal was a waste of time and he stopped a distance away from the mountain view point, making absolutely no indicaciones what we could visit, so we stayed on the bus. No mention was made of wine tasting nor shopping. On our arrival at the little sea-port of Camara de Lobos we decided to get off to visit and return to Funchal on a later bus. Once off the bus, my husband realised that he did not have his ruck-sack with him, explained to the driver and rapidly got back on the bus to find his bag. The driver drive off, leaving me on the pavement and my husband on the bus. It took hours for me to relocate him to get back on our cruise ship before sailing time. It was a nightmare! We didn't visit Camara de Lobos , as planned yesterday but are returning to Funchal and will be finding another way to get to the town. We are globe-trotters and this is the worse excursion we have ever taken😪

Scammed - Spent €40 on two tickets, told could use on both red and blue lines. When tried to get on the second line was told this was not valid for both lines and would have to purchase another ticket. Expecting people to pay €40 each is extortionate.

Take the Yellow - Not very helpful once they have your money. The people selling are quick to be helpful. Once thwy have your cash, not helpful at all! The drivers are also not helpful with stops. Audio does not match as to what you are seeing. Take the Yellow Bus. Was much more helpful and 100% better service
