Funchal by Tukxi
  • Sustainable Experience

by Tukxi & on foot

The Tukxi experience is a personal and exciting way to discover the charms and beauty of the city of Funchal with your own driver/guide.

Explore the heart of Funchal in a unique mode of transport: the Tukxi. These 3-wheeled vehicles are based on the Italian Piaggio Ape Calessino and are a form of sustainable electric transport, combining style, comfort, safety, ecology and a little Italian charm.

Buzz through the narrow maze of cobbled streets in Funchal’s old town, and experience the corners of Funchal, that are normally inaccessible to other types of vehicles.

You will have an exclusive perspective and be making more intimate contact with the soul of the city, seeing historical and cultural places of interestl as well as recreational areas of the capital.

Following your personal experience around Funchal, your Tukxi returns you to the port.
