4 Days in Madeira, Portugal Island | WOW "The Hawaii of Europe"

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

New Portugal Video ➡ kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5-WnnZsa6t7mbc ⬅ Porto is a gorgeous city and should definitely be on your radar. This video shows why!

[@mankwediseunane770]

Happy new year to you too

[@RS-fi1nl]

Hey, amazing footage. But the title is wrong, Madeira isnt know as the Hawaii of Europe, never in my life i heard that and i live here . It is know as the Atlantic Pearl as long as i remember. More or less , the place in Portugal that actually look closer to Hawaii, would be Azores Islands, not Madeira islands. Have fun

[@SuitcaseMonkey]

Hey thanks. Yeah I hear you. The reason I mention it is that (possibly due to the transfer of information online) but that reference is out there about Madeira online. The main reason I included it is I watched a KZbin who was from Hawaii and she made the comparison herself and said often she would feel like certain views were just like Hawaii. So that was enough for me. But I hear your point.

Yes, yes come to Canada! Very helpful video on Madeira - we’ll use all your tips when we get there. Thanks.

When we visited Madeira, we took the toboggan basket ride in Funchal and it was fantastic - we enjoyed it so much so I highly recommend it!

[@richdt6312]

Such a beautiful island. Never realised Madeira was like this. Loving the videos too, on both channels.

[@GParreira91]

I usually don't press like or comment, but since you asked nicely, I did it. Also, I'm Portuguese and all my family on my mother's side is from Madeira. I go to Madeira at least once a year, usually more, and used to be there for 2 months every summer when I was younger. As a half-Madeira native, I appreciate your video. Good job in showcasing what Madeira has to offer

[@littlekingking]

I just booked my trip and couldn’t believe it when I came to KZbin to see you just posted a video about Lisbon and Madeira! You’re always one big step ahead of me. And I must say, your videos have always been excellent but your editing has gone through the roof!!! Well done, buddy! 🎉

[@abigailgerlach5443]

Funchal was my favorite port last year. It was stunningly beautiful! I would go back any time at the drop of a hat!

[@enigmatist666]

Another great video! I love the idea of renting a Smart - I had one for 10 years. We visited Madeira back in the late 80s. Stayed at the Casino Park. It was the week before Christmas and warm enough to swim in the gorgeous outdoor pool! We met Roy Barraclough in the bar. When he discovered that I wasn't feeling well, he bought me a Fernet-Branca, telling me it would settle my stomach. How thoughtful. A nice memory. :)

I really appreciate the manner in which your reviews are done, not over the top with just enough information to interest viewers. Clean and efficient narrative coupled with a relaxing cadence ensures no frustration or viewer fatigue. Madeira is definitely on our visit list in the near future. I hear June is a good time to visit with the best chance of sunshine, moderate climate and not too busy like July and August. Continue making lovely docu-tourism material.

[@MrRugbyprop1]

My family goes back over 400 years in Madeira, Portugal, and after seeing the island in person, I'm convinced they were part mountain goat! The steep and narrow roads, and steep and narrow walkways, make it difficult to get around. It's nothing like Hawaii. (Mrs.Rugby)

[@nylesgregory2120]

Ditto on that distinction. Hawaii it's not - for those of us who have lived in both places. Yes, both are islands, but that's where the similarities end for many, many reasons. Video is nice. However to all who view - best be informed, visiting for four days is not the same as living here. And any comparison to Hawaii is a dangerous stretch as an argument. If only . . . and I'll leave it at that

How about Rome and then down to Sicily. Beautiful island with great Greek ruins in Agrigento. You can get the train there from mainland Italy.

Rome is cool, but I'm sorry there's just no way I'm choosing Milan or Rome over Madeira. Especially if I have 1 week, I'm trying to wake up everyday and feel like I'm in paradise.

I did my first Levada walk on Madeira in 1993. Back then there were quite a few trekks that actually were dangerous. I remember one levada where the concrete you walked on was very narrow and in bad condition. No guard rails and if you put one foot wrong you could easily tumble down 100 meters and end up dead. That and being an avid bird watcher was a bad combo for me but "fortunately" there aren't that many birds on Madeira. I am going there again in 2 weeks to visit my mother who turns 80. Doesn't stop here from taking long levada walks several times a week!
