Awsome as always. Excelent work. Regards

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Thanx Duarte 🙏 Grande Abraço my friend

[@antonsteininger1527]

Dear Jeff! We come with a smile! We just did our booking for your west tour in July - and we come with a smile. Although it is still plenty of time to our holidays in the summer, we booked immediately - after we had read that you treasure and admire our favourite drummer Steve Gadd as much as we do. We had the luck to see Steve several times on stage. To watch him has always been epic. Thanks to Steve - we head into our next epic experience, a tour with Hit The Road. Michaela and Anton

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Hey Anton!! How awesome :))) I wish I could’ve seen Steve Gadd live!! Anyway, discovering Madeira will be even better ;)) see you guys soon!! ✌️

[@elimez4004]

Jeff great video for all who haven't been to Maderia. We are looking forward to being with Hugo in March.

Jeff, I cannot say how much I appreciate you and Eliza. The information you share is priceless. I don’t know if I will be coming again this year but, I love Madeira and this time I will be staying somewhere in Funchal. Your information is worth it weight in gold. The best to you and Eliza❣️❤️

[@Irbdude]

Great Video! I’m planning my trip for February or March and do not want to rent a car. Traveling alone so it would be nice to hitch a ride on some tours as I want to see the whole island.

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Thank you Scott 🙏 happy to help :)) check out our website www.hittheroadmadeira.com/en for all our tour options or just send us an email ;) cheers buddy and stay tuned, lots of great stuff coming ;)) 🙌

[@GabrielUrsanVlog]

Hi! If we are 7 people (5 adults, one child with 11 years old and one child with 9 years old) how we should do the booking on your website? I see only the 6 persons option on your booking page. Thank you!

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Sorry Gabriel, I’ve been away for the last 10 days on a demanding job. I hope you found a solution, our cars unfortunately in this case only take 6. Take care 🙏

[@GabrielUrsanVlog]

@@Hittheroadmadeira thank you very much for your answer. Yes, fortunately I have found a solution and tomorrow we will have our first tour.

Hi! Great content! Do you know if there's possible rent a campervan on a budget? or something like that. Thanks!

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Hi! They exist yes, not sure about the budget? There’s a company called Madeira Road Trip or something like this? I’m sure with a Google search you will find something ;) good luck and thank you 🙏

#1 Plan for the wheather. Yes, 4 degrees C in Coimbra, and we had 42 C in summer. I started 2023 with Funchal´s fireworks. I fell deeply in love with Madeira in 9 days in Santa Cruz. Right, My first night was in a 500 m. height, cold in winter. No return, no way out, it´s heaven on earth! 🙂

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Yeah a lot of people think Madeira is “the land of eternal spring” but it gets cold too lol :)) glad you enjoyed it buddy!! Stick around, lots of good stuff coming :))

[@nanabutner]

My father was born in Ponta Delgada, Madeira in 1915 and his family goes back from his parents eight generations all from Madeira. We visited Madeira in 2001 and it is not only a beautiful place, but the people are amazing.

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

So happy to hear you enjoyed your stay Nana :)) we have proud roots ;)) have a great week! Até logo! ✌️

[@nanabutner]

@@Hittheroadmadeira Thank you!

How is the weather in late September? Thats when we are visiting?

I’ve written up a detailed weather article on my blog, it’s linked in the description ;) but I would say prepare for everything except snow 😂

@@Hittheroadmadeira I shall check it out! as long as there is hot weather aha

Do you need a jacket on Madeira In late June?😀 or more like just sweater?

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

If you’re in the mountains at early/late hours then yes 👍

[@annekenunes9989]

No 5, we had the best cake there at that snack bar, let me know where that was again please.

[@debee1544]

Hi i just watched your blog on the spring weather..I am coming mid October , is this early Autumn similar to spring.. will be forest hiking hopefully swimming in the natural pools and prob move around for a bit of sun, saying as i wont see it for a while in Ireland😅 Thanks for the infomation vids..am binge watching😂

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Hi Debee sorry for the delay I was on vacation 😎 Yes the weather in Autumn is similar to the spring. For hiking, bring layers and waterproofs and be very careful, right now there’s a lot of warnings because of some fires we had. In the mountains it can get cold and of course you can swim but also with the necessary safety ;) There’s is a blog post on the description of the video where I write more in depth, with temperatures, etc … Hope this helps!! PS, our next video will be about the weather in the Autumn, but might be too late for you to watch because you will probably already be here 🥳🥳🥳 Enjoy Madeira !! 😊

[@RuePhoto]

Thanks Jeff & André for those unmissable tips! 🙂 I'm catching up bit by bit lol! I'm so tempted to book you for a tour & vlog it too during my two week trip to Madeira during the second half of April, but that would depend on your availability & if my three friends agree to it! Have a truly beautiful weekend my friends 🤗

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Glad we could help Rue 🙏 Yeah, if you’re keen on a tour, happy to accommodate !! Go ahead and book yourself in when you’re ready ;)) You know you won’t regret it !! Cheers buddy have a great weekend ✌️

Great video Jeff 👍🏻 I have been there in october last year 🎥 Madeira is a paradise for us filmmakers 😅

Thanx bud 🙏 Well the filmmaker is Andre not me lol, in this case, Vitor Costa was the cameraman and drone pilot. We only work with the best ;)) And yeah, if Madeira was a model, she’d be a SUPERMODEL ❤️

[@BilalKhan-rh1ei]

Hi Jeff, pros and cons of visiting in October (2nd or 3rd week)? I am planning to visit this October. Btw loving your videos ❤

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Cheers bud thank you 🙏 pros and cons are that the weather is a bit more unpredictable, a little bit colder than the summer but also much calmer in terms of crowds ;)) personally one of my favourite months to work :)) see you soon buddy!!

Hey Jeff…any chance you can do a video for wheel chair access? We’re planning a huge family reunion(born in Funchal)next year & I get around in a wheel chair…I’d imagine a challenge to get around most of it?But I can get an all terrain chair?But ramps to shops, restaurants, accommodation etc? Cheers for great content…hi from Australia👍🏼🌻👍🏼

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Hi Maggie! Family reunion in Madeira sounds exciting 🙌 I’ll keep it in mind and see what I can do ;) in the meanwhile I can recommend my friend, Tiago, from Madeira Acessível by Wheelchair. I’m sure he can help with a hell of a lot ;)

[@MrJapie234]

Is there a sunrise tour with maybe a trip to fanal possible?

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Yes, but only private. That’s a very specific tour. Email us dates and we can see if we can help you 🙏 have a great day!!

[@christophermiller353]

I am coming to Maderia in 2024 and my primary interest is paragliding, so who to contact for information on where to take off and safety issues. As I will be travelling on my own the best way to get back to my car after each flight?

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

I would suggest contacting a specialist in that area, there is a man by the name of Hartmut in Arco da Calheta or Madeira Wings, which I believe is the name of the company I have worked with in the past. With regards to getting back to your car, taxi?

[@lets-do-this]

We did a madeira Video aswel if your interested.. we explored all the places on our own and had great fun on the island....Great adventure place

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Glad you had fun!! Next time if you wanna see some places you couldn’t find on your own, book yourself a tour with us, you won’t regret it ;)) cheers! ✌️

I am planning to travel to Madeira in 2024 but I am not very keen on flying and would like to avoid it if possible. I can't find a definitive answer wether there is a ferry connecting Maderia to the Portuguese mainland. Perhaps you can tell me more about that?

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

I don’t have a definite answer to be honest, as far as I know, there is no ferry, don’t see one coming anytime soon but I may be misinformed, sorry buddy

uma pergunta num tom de brincadeira, como é que vocês conseguem aguentar tantos calhaus?! 🤣🤣🤣. A MADEIRA, TERRA DOS CALHAUS! 😅 Eu à calheta, aquela praia com a baia, estava maré baixa, eu andei sem exagerar uns 40mts ou mais, ainda tinha até água até à cintura. Pensei para mim, já deve ser suficiente para dar um mergulho. Pessoal eu ia dando uma cornada nos calhaus! Bati com o pé e a anca em qualquer lado, fiquei todo lixado! 😂 Pronto fiquei a perceber que é melhor tomar banho naqueles pontões que há em quase todo o lado. O hotel tinha um, foi muito fixe. A água do mar na Madeira tem tanto sal, não precisas de fazer nada para boiar.

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Verdade! Não ah nada como a nossa água André 🏆 eu pessoalmente não tenho stresses com os calhaus mas sim, melhor entrar na água nakeles pontões como disseste 😂

[@andreborges73]

bolo do mel! voces vao ficar chateados comigo, eu levei um mês ou mais a acabar o meu bolo de mel! 🤣🤣🤣. O meu era daqueles que se vendem no aeroporto, do tamanho da mao. Nao era tao grande. As duas vezes que comprei. a anterior foi em 2019, também levei muito tempo para acabar, nem sei se acabei. Nao é mau, é que sou parvo, nao liguem! 😂. E um bocado seco. Um bocado doce demais.😅
