Funcal - Hop On Hop Off

Has anyone done the HOHO tour bus in Funchal? Is it a good way to get an overview of the area?

I am wondering the same & also if tickets are available for purchase at the port. 

I'm considering the 3 IN 1 (48h): Funchal + Câmara de Lobos + Cabo Girão Tour .  I can purchase tickets on the yellow bus website that include tickets to both the skywalk & the cable car R/T for only $14 more than just the HOHO tickets on Viator. I would love this, as it would save us time waiting in the cable car line to purchase tickets,  However, this is our 3rd cruise that has been scheduled for Funchal and we have never been able to actually dock there - first time was due to a hurricane our ship was diverted & then last year we couldn't make the stop due to a worker strike affecting the port. With our history in the port, I would prefer to wait until we are actually there to purchase tickets.
