FAQ

- Are your tuk tuks electric?
- Lisbon: all-electric fleet. Madeira: mixed fleet, electric tuk-tuk available on request.
- Can I customize my tour route?
- Absolutely. All our tours are flexible. Tell us what you'd like to see and we'll plan the perfect route.
- How do I book a tuk tuk tour with Tukxi?
- Book online on each tour page (instant confirmation via Bókun). Questions before booking can be sent on WhatsApp.
- Is Tukxi a taxi service?
- No — Tukxi is not a taxi, transfer, or airport pickup service. We are a private guided sightseeing tour company in Madeira and Lisbon. Our tuk tuks follow fixed or customizable tour routes with a local guide, not point-to-point rides.
- How long is a tuk tuk tour in Madeira?
- Our Madeira tours range from 1.5 hours to a full 8-hour Grand Experience. Most first-time visitors choose the 3 or 4-hour Grand Experience for the best balance of highlights and comfort. If you're on a cruise stop, the 1.5-hour Funchal City Tour fits most port schedules perfectly.
- Can I book a tuk tuk tour from Funchal cruise port?
- Yes — our Funchal City Tour is built specifically for cruise passengers. Pickup is right at the port, usually in front of the cruise ship exit. Free cancellation applies automatically if your ship doesn't come in.
- What is the best tuk tuk tour in Madeira for first-time visitors?
- We recommend the Madeira Grand Experience (3 or 4 hours) for first-timers — it covers Funchal, Cabo Girão, Câmara de Lobos, and the mountain viewpoints in one private tour. Short on time? The Funchal City Tour (1.5 hours) is the perfect introduction to the capital.
- How long is a tuk tuk tour in Lisbon?
- Our Lisbon tours range from 1 hour 30 minutes (Belém) and 2 hours (Historical Tour, Street Art) to a full 6-hour Grand Experience covering the entire city. Most visitors choose the 3-hour East to West tour or the 4-hour Grand Experience for the best balance of highlights and comfort.
- Can I book a tuk tuk tour from Lisbon cruise port?
- Yes — we offer direct pickup at Jardim do Tabaco Quay for all our tours. Every shore excursion is timed to your ship's schedule. Free cancellation applies if your ship doesn't come in.
- What is the best tuk tuk tour in Lisbon for first-time visitors?
- The East to West tour (3h, from €180) is perfect for first-timers — it covers Alfama, the viewpoints, Chiado, Belém, and the riverside in one flowing route. If you want more depth, the Grand Experience (4–6h) lets you go deeper into every neighbourhood.
- Are Tukxi guides in Lisbon multilingual?
- Yes. Tours are available in English, Portuguese, Spanish, French and German. Mention your preferred language when booking.
