A fun way to visit nuns valley - We had a brilliant experience, Maggie our TutTut driver/guide was fantastic. Her knowledge of the history and area was well informed as she was born and lives close by. We stopped off on the way so we could view Funchal a great photo opportunity. We then traveled on to the valley of the nuns, stopping at Eira do Serrado hotel for a fantastic view of the nuns valley. Then finally onto the valley. There was many opportunities to walk around and Maggie was brilliant in explaining the past and present. I would highly recommend this personal one to one tour with the benefit of a fun way to travel. The tuttut was comfortable and although it was chilly in the mountains in March we was provided with cosy blankets and the valley warm once we was there. Maggie was a very good driver and very experienced.
