IN....credible. Dude... I am a VERY harsh critic of travel channels. You are by far the best I've seen. It's a true art what you do and it isn't just beautiful but the information you provide is absolutely perfect. You are so much appreciated. I will also add that I fall asleep to your videos fairly often. So you're part symphonic travel entertainment, part travel advisor, and part calming sleep aid. Applause!!!

[@jessy5453]

I couldn't agree more! This video is perfection! Most travel channels have THE most annoying music and instead of focusing on the location, they tend to focus on worthless things. I am dying to visit Madeira after this video!

[@nashness81]

loved your comment. More people need to take the time to show appreciation. ❤️❤️

[@karent6653]

He does have a very nice melodic voice.

[@hollisterab]

Exactly! Before I go anywhere, I am checking this channel !

[@Mitchell-vk4zy]

💯 Easily the best travel vlog I’ve seen on KZbin

[@jxmt018897]

Your guides are always so magical. Thank you!

[@christinabayma119]

Honestly the best film I’ve seen yet about Portugal. Simple script with just the right amount of speaking. Beautiful music and footage. I especially appreciated the map. Great job.

[@brianfulda]

Heading to Madeira in a few weeks on our honeymoon and we’ve watched a bunch of videos, this was by far the most helpful. Thank you for presenting all of this information in such a useful way - the map animations were clutch. I’m not sure but I think based on your videos and gear you might also be a fellow Kraig Adams fan, haha. Keep up the great work and thanks again

[@andrewchariker1246]

Beautiful camera work! Love the effort you put into these videos.

[@bonnyarmstrong6213]

We have our trip booked and you showed all of the place we want to visit. Thank you for getting us even more excited!

[@ohdude6643]

Those drone images are really impressive. Fantastic work.

[@dreambigcarryon2235]

Planning a trip to Madeira next year. Thank you for this lovely video. Very well done and inspiring too!

[@AndreFernandesMovies]

I have been following your channel for a while and had no idea you came to Portugal. Hope you enjoyed it, you should also consider visiting Açores and a few cities in Portugal mainland. Also congratulations for the presentation of your videos, as a professional photographer I gotta say that your travel videos have by far the best cinematography on youtube. You should have millions of followers by now. Keep it up!

[@hikesome]

Such a wonderful video and outdoor experience! Madeira is magical. Thank you for such a wonderful guide Allan, I guess this video gives a huge inspiration for everybody who wants to go there. Best wishes, Mario

[@kismetnyc]

always love your videos, they're all so beautifully shot but super helpful. I've never thought of visiting Madeira, but will now add it to my list of places to see.

[@rogerjohnson898]

Wow, what a brilliant clip & thx for sharing eh!!!

[@valeriia6978]

Thank you so much for this detailed video about the trip in Madeira. I can say that it is the best video with guide in Madeira for future tourists on KZbin 👍🏻👍🏻

[@tacitusromanus8239]

A beautiful video, Allan. Your drone work is amazing. I often see ads for travel to both Madeira and the Azores. Definitely worth checking out. Thanks for such great work!

[@madeirauntold]

We live on Madeira Island for over 2 years and are absolutely in love with the Island.

[@Sophie15]

Your voice is so relaxing! Can't wait to visit Maderia next week

[@marianneakoutchi5449]

I was there a couple of days ago, just awesome, next time I recommend you to go to Porto Santo, you’ll love it, beautiful turquoise sea ✨

[@markuskniepkamp8298]

Hi Allan, thank you for this great impressions of Madeira. My wife and me bought two tiny houses in Funchal and Arco Calheta in 2019/2020 shortly before Corona came. We stayed in Madeira in the winter time 2020/2021 and Madeira was our new home and home office, far away from Berlin, our home city. I'm very respectful towards your program within 7 days. It's funny that you booked accommodations very close to us. All the best for you and your wife/partner. Sunny regards from Arco Calheta 5'th November 2022, Markus

[@brianbaldwin2510]

Superb production values and totally enjoyable to watch. I subscribed and liked because I want to see more of what you do. Thanks!

[@hollisterab]

probably the best travel guide I have watched. I like the drone views, but beyond that, the style is factual, calm, mature and truthful. Very useful for planning your own trip. Very inspiring, keep up the good work, and do not change a thing.

[@StreetFerrari]

Amazing video, great work. Thanks for the suggestions. I have booked a trip there this july, looking forward to it!

[@mentezari]

Great audio visual and narrations. Well done ❤ My wife and I are planning to be in Madeira next summer.

[@alessandroluongo3303]

Wow congratulations I was really looking for inspiration for when we are in Madeira in July. Thanks again your video editing was fabulous!!

[@cintsayang6531]

[@AllanSu]

Thank you Cintsa! Travel season is in full swing

[@etherdog]

Allan, you have a knack for striking the right balance of the nature videography with what affect it has on you. Your videos are akin to finding inner peace.

[@AllanSu]

Always good to hear from you

[@losttouristpresents]

Wow. Fantastic video and footage! We are planning to go to Madeira in March. I'm not an avid out of country traveller but my wife has been wanting to go away for quite a few years. Your video has given me some inspiration now to go here. I wasn't going to bring my drone to keep things simpler, but after watching your video I may reconsider that. Again fantastic video !

[@itsDizhiOOO]

I really appreciate this break down of itinerary. Covered the whole island but doesn't feel rushed. Thank you!

[@AllanSu]

Glad to hear! Thanks for watching

[@lakehouselivin]

I'm heading to Madeira this Sunday for an entire week! thanks so much for your video, I can't wait!

[@karolw.5208]

Allan, I watched your videos from the North Atlantic, now Madeira. Thanks, as people said before me - I like your sparse, down to earth style without gimmicks.

[@shadmansaif4777]

You are the best videographer …..big fan …loved every bit ❤

[@hegeljorge9383]

I'm planning a trip to Madeira with the family also in April and your video is very inspirational, excellent work you did here. Congrats P.S. I've been watching a lot of videos and yours is one of the best if not the best.

[@simonapop883]

Merita văzută insula

[@HenriqueFreitasHMF]

Very, very good video. Congratulations, Allan.

[@vaishnavipattabiraman1586]

Incredible video about Madeira, thank you so very much for presenting this beautiful island with all the necessary information in a simple yet profound way. I am almost convinced after watching your video and another great video by another KZbinr to visit this island during my first visit to Portugal in a month. Thanks again.

[@welshlad6427]

Have visited Madeira 3 times and it really is the Jewell of the Atlantic. Will definitely revisit as still many great hikes to do. Great vlog as always Allan, but can’t believe you didn’t do the return hike on the PR1 hike….now that’s lazy 😉😂

[@MsKarenafro]

Fabulous video very informative, and relaxing to watch . Well done 👏 ❤

[@joukoeronen]

Great vid, looking forward to visit Madeira in person!

[@kateselina5933]

I loved your video! Thank you for such a great job!

[@peterronchetti1736]

Really excellent travel guide, well done!

[@aaronzach9595]

Love your Itineray series , pretty insightful and looks great. Also you never talk about visa and related stuff so I'm guessing you might have a very strong passport, kinda jealous ngl.

[@karent6653]

Great video and information Allan. I've made notes!

[@garydunkley6195]

Thanks for your truly inspiring video Allan. Me and my wife will be visiting this May and your very well presented video will be a big help to us. We're delighted to hear that you both had a great time in Madeira. We will be following in you're footsteps with what you did during your stay there. One things for sure of you enjoyed Madeira then you'll love Cape Town where we just came back from. Keep up your very informative and well presented videos. Best wishes from Gary, Carinaand family

[@moriiiiitz]

This was the best video I've seen so far on madeira

[@relaxingsilentfilms-LosAngeles]

love this.. adding to our list of places to visit. Your approach is very nice. Kraig Adams style.

[@shivapazoki1881]

What i really love about your videos is that you just objectively state the facts as you see them . No hyping things up for clicks, no controversial titles or thumbnails no long hair and short skirt in the wind😅. Just very factual … almost scientific . Thank you.

[@anuragjain7751]

May be the best place to see cloud inversion..... . What a great video, thanks for sharing...

[@wolverinegaming2898]

Very nice video. Many usful informations, gentle music background, perfect pictures from camera and dron.

[@lumierekaga543]

My best friend is in Madeira right now. As she was telling me about how beautiful and hilly this Island is, I jumped on KZbin to see and learn more. Then I found this video… This video is incredibly stunning and informative. This is for true nature lovers and hikers. I love it how you incorporated great spots to catch sunrise and sunset. I love for them!!! and of course hiking!!! I immensely enjoyed your talent and contents. I’m definitely adding this island to my 45th birthday trip to Europe. Thank you!
