What guests say about Tukxi Madeira
João Silva was an amazing guide! We loved our tour of old town so much that we booked a second afternoon tour with him to go into the mountains. He was so knowledgeable, approachable, and accommodating for our family, making sure we saw the best views, got all the local history, and tried local drinks. Highly recommend! Thank you, João!!
