When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We used Madeiralimo three times on our recent trip - to and from the airport and a tour of the West of Madeira.
There was a consistency in quality of vehicles and drivers and their clear competency - as well as their knowledge of the island.
You should feel safe and confident if you use them.
I would use them again.
By the way, the tour of the West was in a small group with excellent guidance by the driver in a mini bus - just 12 of us meant a very pleasant trip.

We recently visited Madeira and had the good fortune to have had our "welcome dinner" and 3 excursions booked through Madeiralimo. Nuno was our driver/escort for all 4 activities. He was extremely knowledgable and made every day more interesting and enjoyable by sharing his knowledge, personal experiences, and sense of humour. The smaller passenger vans were very comfortable and Nuno was clearly a very experienced driver on the sometimes tricky mountain roads of Madeira. Kudos to Madeiralimo and to Nuno for making a great trip such a wonderful experience.

exit through the airport and the Covid test was swift, driver was waiting with a board displaying my name. I was the only passenger, so drive time to the hotel was quick. Driver offered suggestions for excursions and we discussed the Covid situation on the island.
Good communications regarding the return pick up and again I was the only client, same driver and another good chat.
Covid precautions taken and a safe drive both ways. I hope things pick up for them.

We were not picked up on the day when our flight would be back home. We had to be picked up at 7:50 in the morning and waited until 9:30. We used the contact numbers of Madeiralimo but couldn't reach anyone. Nobody called back. Eventually, our receptionist called a taxi and we were brought the the airport. Our flight was at 10:40. If we had not taken the taxi, we would have missed our flight back home.
Then, I contacted the supplier of Madeiralimo via email. He does not take any responsibility for the failed transfer and wrote a rude email without any excuse. Also, he won't make a refund.
Untrustworty and Unacceptable.

Dear Madame I do respect your opinion. However, I must inform you that there are contracts and clauses that are established between operators and they are confidential. In this case Madeiralimo is providing a transport to another operator that is not Lastminute.com, so, if I have to give more precise explanations it is to the my client Tour operator. However, you have the right to complain and you must complain, but, you can do at the right place and to the right company that sold you the product. You don't know all the reasons, you don’t know if I’m still the supplier of that company, you don't know if there are missing payments, you don't know if I'm overbooked and I didn't accept the booking/reservation of your transfer service. Summing up, there is many reasons between companies that are apart of the logistics and that the final customer (in this case you) does not know and don’t need to know. The final customer (you) just want the transfer service from point A to point B. You are right in some aspects regarding the telephone, I should have called back, it’s true, but it was such a busy time and that I did not had done it. I will not refund a payment that I did not receive, or that maybe I didn't even have the reservation for this transfer. These are the reasons why I recommend that you make the complaint to Lastminute.com , and them, if so, Madeiralimo will respond to Tour operator. I must also inform you that you did not have or bought an executive transfer in Madeiralimo, you bought a regular transfer from another company, so this opinion is out of place. I also inform you that Madeiralimo did not bill the tour operator for any service, we will not refund money that we did not receive! With kindest regards

We used Madeiralimo for airport to hotel transfer and return on our day of departure.
An excellent service without having to wait any longer than our time of pick up.
The driver was courteous and friendly and drove very safely with confidence.

Got a great price from a Holiday Taxis then confirmation that Madeiralimo would be the local agent. Lovely gentleman was waiting for me and I was only one in mini van. Taken quickly and safely to my hotel. Fantastic. Would definitely recommend

Pay a little extra for a limo to and from the airport - takes all the hassle out of travel.

The driver met us in the airport and couldn't have been more helpful.

Pick up on the way back was great too. All on time and worth every penny.

We booked Madeiralimo private airport transfers via HolidayTaxis.com before making our trip to Madeira. Sometimes in doing this you are not too sure of what is going to happen at the other end. No need to worry our driver was waiting for us at Funchal airport (our name board held in hand) and took us directly to our hotel in the city center. Conversation was easy and we were given a commentary of all that was to be seen on the wonderful drive en route.
The following evening at the appointed time a young lady rep from the company called at the hotel to arrange for our separate minibus day tours of the west of Madeira and then the east side of this spectacular island.
Our driver for each of the tours was Hugo (pronounced Ugo as he informed us) who turned out to be a real ambassador for his island. A person who has a love of his country and a pride in showing it to visitors is an asset to any travel associated business and 'Ugo' certainly achived this goal. He guided his four couples through the trips and took good care of us and managed to get us to converse with one another even though we were of different nationalities. His English and obviously his other European languages were good and he had a wonderful sense of humour. I was not sure at times if he was spinning a yarn or telling the truth about some subjects but eventually did tell a thing as it really was.
The views of sea and mountains were fantastic, the towns and villages beautiful, the system of agriculture and how it was worked by hand fascinating. No question was too difficult for 'Ugo' to answer. Stops and visits to attractions and eateries were well planned and ample time given to have a wander.
As stated we as a group were well looked after but it was also nice when 'Ugo' took the time to have a one to one and answer any in depth queries.

The same high standard of service was given by the taxi driver on our last day returning to the airport from our hotel.

Well done all you gentlemen and lady rep,I would highly recommend your taxi / tour company to anyone who is travelling to this beautiful island.

We arranged airport transfers in Funchal through Madeiralimo and they were very good. The driver who was very pleasant was waiting for us when we landed and took us straight to our hotel and also gave us information about the island. The return trip to the airport was also efficient as the driver arrived early and got us to the airport in plenty of time. Would highly recommend.

This was nearly a bad review but the company redeemed itself and I will probably use them agin. Before our trip I contacted the company and booked and paid for return airport transfers. I was told that we would be met at the airport and transported in a sedan ( BMW 5 or Mercedes C class or similar) so I was surprised and quite cross to be met by an old bright blue Mercedes sprinter mini-bus in which my husband and I and our cases rattled around on the 20 minute trip to the hotel. If I had wanted to travel by minibus I would have paid less and booked on to one of the group services! I did have a moan to the concierge at our hotel and started to write a 1 star review but decided to see what would happen on the return. On our last morning the driver - who was also the owner - arrived promptly in an old but clean and plush BMW. He asked us about our thoughts on the company and when I told him about our arrival he was apologetic explaining that there had been an issue and all of his cars had been mistakenly booked out for day hires on the day we arrived. He appeared sincere and his service to the airport was comfortable and efficient as was the booking and payment before our departure that I will probably use this service again.
