Visit Funchal Highlights in a Half Day Private Tour

Hi, my name is Valdemar, a 45 years old Madeira island native. I was born in the capital Funchal but my roots are in the west and east of the island, where my grandparents are from. For 16 years I have worked in a store. Getting in contact with people, knowing their stories, was the best part of it and enriched and gave me social skills. In my free time, this island was my breakout. 10 years ago my breakout became a full-time occupation and I swapped a store for an outdoor office and started delivering tours. First with sidecar motorcycles, then minibus and jeeps, as a freelancer guide and since then, my passion for this island got bigger. The satisfaction and smiling faces of my guests were the cherries on top. Right away I felt this was what I was meant to be doing with my life. I feel blessed and very lucky to be able to do what I love for a living. This year I have joined ToursByLocals private tours because they offer me the opportunity to deliver a tour more personal, tailor-made, and flexible where I can show you the places that made me feel this way! Taking a tour with me, I guarantee a memorable experience, where you will feel local. I will go the extra mile to overcome your expectations and you will go back looking forward to returning. Looking forward to meeting you. See you soon. Certified Tourism Guide/Driver, Licenced by the Autonomous Region of Madeira, in accordance with the ordinance nr. 61/2017.
