Amazing video with spectacular drone shots! I am planning to visit in October this year (mid October). Is it a good time to visit Madeira? I fear it might rain and also the shorter day time

[@madetoexplore]

Thank you. September or October are great times to visit! It’ll be far less crowded but the days will be shorter.

[@BilalKhan-rh1ei]

@@madetoexplore Thank you so much! I'll book my tickets in October for Madeira then 🙂

[@sloboda2012]

Wow!!! Thank you for making this awesome video!!! I am moving to Madeira :) I was having second thoughts, but after watching your awesome video, I am All In again :) Many Blessings

[@madetoexplore]

That’s awesome! Kinda jealous actually haha enjoy!

[@sandymilne224]

Great to hear you two are Canadian! Well done. Madeira is definitely one place I want to visit. I’ve even heard it’s a good place to retire to.

[@madetoexplore]

Thanks Sandy! I could see this being a perfect place for retirement

[@allenglishknives6823]

Best Madeira guide I’ve seen so far 👍🏻 Can’t wait to visit the island. Thanks 👍🏻

[@madetoexplore]

Thank you so much! Hope you have an awesome trip 😄

Madeira is amazing. Great job 🙂

Thanks! 😄

nice video we are going on this island next January, so thanks for the recommendation. ❤

Great vlog guys. Heading to Madeira in September and really looking forward to seeing this beautiful island 🏝 Will definitely be doing some of these 👍

[@madetoexplore]

That’s great! We hope you have a wonderful trip 😄

[@annavieira6922]

Hello, Fellow Canadian here. My husband and I are visiting Sao Miguel and Madeira this summer for a week total. I'm so looking forward to seeing all these wonderful places but hope you could recommend a hike for us that's not too difficult for my husband.

[@madetoexplore]

Hi Anna! We would recommend Miradouro da Boca do Inferno. It’s a fairly easy hike and one of the most popular and beautiful ones on the island! Make sure to check the webcams before going though because it can be cloudy a lot of the time.

[@annavieira6922]

@Made to Explore thank you!

[@nunopereira986]

If I understand well, you said that Pico do Arieiro is the highest lookout in Madeira. This isn't true. Pico do Arieiro is the highest lookout which you can go with car. But the highest mountain in Madeira is Pico Ruivo.

[@madetoexplore]

Yes that’s correct. We were talking about the two peaks so many times that we may have confused them 🥴

[@nunopereira986]

@@madetoexplore 👍😊!!

[@krystleirizarry517]

Saccharum looks like the most modern savoy hotel ? What r ur thoughts? Still a cool pool to enter the ocean ?

[@madetoexplore]

It’s very nice! Each Savoy property has a unique theme

[@tomkrebs5959]

Funchal is known for their New Year's Eve fireworks celebration. You may want to add that. 🙂

[@madetoexplore]

Thanks Tom! We had no idea about that.

[@terezapospisilova8943]

When I saw that Pico Grande hike my fear of heights kicked in. Heading to Madeira in a few weeks for 1 week. Definitely want to do dolphin watching and Porto Santo as well.

[@madetoexplore]

Hey Tereza, thanks for watching! Pico Grande is definitely not for everyone but you will LOVE Madeira. Have a wonderful trip☺️

[@Dave-qe6mt]

Hi Guys.....great video, enjoy your channel. What month did you visit Madeira in...we are planning for mid June, wondering about how crowded it will be.

[@madetoexplore]

Hey Dave, thanks for watching! We we went in September. I think mid June will be a great time to go☺️

[@moyvilla9]

Thanks guys, you have been fantastic inspiration!

In what month you was there? I plan to fly at the end of November at the beginning of December I wonder if the weather will be good or too wet?

[@madetoexplore]

@@parsteigums we were there in September/October and the weather was amazing. It may be a little cooler later in the year

loved the video!! i am planing my honeymoon here in june 2023 we are planning on staying at the savoy palace for part of the time! which savoy property did you stay at?

[@madetoexplore]

That’s great! We stayed at Saccharum and Next and they were very nice properties. Have an amazing trip! 😄

[@lindseypalmer9500]

I've watched both your Madeira and Azores video - which of those two destinations did you prefer? Thanks!!

[@madetoexplore]

They are both amazing places but we enjoyed Madeira more!

[@kevinhernandez6444]

which car rental did ya use?

[@krystleirizarry517]

What type of shoes did you use?

[@madetoexplore]

Hiking boots

[@luisv8431]

If you ever travel back to Madeira one day check Jackson Groves blog for the epic hikes on Madeira, there's plenty to do that you miss

[@madetoexplore]

Hopefully be back there one day! Wish we had as much time as Jackson Groves 😂 thanks for watching

I am going to Madeira in October. How is the weather like? Rainy? Anyone know? Would you recommend?

[@madetoexplore]

The weather should be great! We didn’t run into any rain but that doesn’t mean it can’t happen

[@claudiareyes334]

Great recommendations! I’ll be in Portugal in a few days and visiting Madeira. Do you guys recommend renting a car?

[@madetoexplore]

Hey Claudia, thanks for watching! YAY so excited for you, you’ll have the best time☺️ Yes, we loved the freedom of having a vehicle🙌

Pico is a a 36 minute drive from Funchal?

What month were you there?

September

👍👍👍

Thanks for watching☺️

[@zHumanfactor]

Hello fellow Canadians. Love your videos. I'm heading to Portugal for five weeks. I'm planning a visit to Madeira. I noticed you were pushing the Savoy Properties pretty hard... was that a paid sponsor you are promoting? They seem super expensive... Airbnb has a much more reasonable nightly rate there. Btw, nice drone shots in your videos.

[@madetoexplore]

Hi there! Thanks for watching 😄 Yes, we did partner with Savoy during this trip. If your looking for a more budget friendly option then Airbnb would be the way to go!

[@zHumanfactor]

@@madetoexplore Okay, thanks for clarifying that. Keep up the good work!

[@bivianacoyomani515]

so ya'll went in the fall or summer? idk what clothes to take in the fall.

[@madetoexplore]

We went in September and it was really nice! Tights and a tank top to hike, and shorts walking around town. But we always bring layers just in case☺️

[@gilbert2303]

How would you compare Madeira vs sao Miguel ?

[@madetoexplore]

Madeira is better for hiking and waterfalls and is a bit more rugged. São Miguel is better for drive up viewpoints and hot springs and is more manicured☺️

[@Monique-tz8wv]

When were u in Portugal for those 3 weeks??

[@madetoexplore]

September/October

[@Clifton_McWilliams]

I’m probably in the few, I absolutely hated the Pico to Pico hike

[@madetoexplore]

Whys that?

[@pdskill]

Very nice video! If someone is interested in buying a house in Madeira, I have a friend that's selling his house. Let me know if so! Regards!

[@madetoexplore]

Thank you!

[@barakrosenberg8180]

I thought the guide was free?it requests $20?

[@madetoexplore]

Hi Barak, no the guide isn’t free but the money does help support the channel so we can continue to make helpful content! Thanks for watching 😄

[@Barefootbaldocks]

No map to show location of Maderia. No maps to show location of spectacular points

[@madetoexplore]

Google maps is great for checking all of these locations, just type them into the search bar and voila!🙃

[@staceyrowland9424]

Too many ads!

[@andykal1137]

You need to be in good shape for number one and ...both of you are 😂🏋️‍♀️

[@madetoexplore]

It is a tough one for sure! Thanks for watching☺️

[@DiogoF.]

Madeirans are very far from a progressive, tolerant society and are very attached to an old, very backwards, uneducated way of living but the island has great infrastructure, absurd natural beauty and much dignity. It's diametrically opposed to mainland Portugal.

[@madetoexplore]

That’s an interesting opinion. Thanks for watching!
