I watched your videos before coming to Madeira, so it was nice to meet you on the trail (I'm the guy from 15:35). The trail was not scary, but physically demanding. Madeira is so beautiful. I hope to come back again. Cheers!

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Wow Pawel! Eheh why don’t you say hello?? Eheh very lucky of you to do the hike on such a beautiful day hey !! Thanx for watching and so happy to have you here :)) cheers ✌️

Spotted ourselves in the video at 02:55-02:59 a whole 4 seconds lol, hello KZbin! Thanks again for your videos, it helped us decide to come to Madeira! Until next time! Greetings from The Netherlands, best regards Auke&Lotte

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

[@mirimango9789]

Thanks for all the hiking recommendations, definitely check them out next time. Hope you guys are doing great, have a nice weekend ahead! 🤗 The big walk is back, yessss 🥳

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Yes it is Miri!! Thank you :)) Yeah we were so lucky that day, God really blessed us with all that beauty 😍

[@subashtamang1749]

Wow awesome 😮😮

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Glad you enjoyed it 🤠

[@maciejobjasniacz]

14:25 Is it also attached to number 10, I mean Pico do Arierio to Pico Ruivo hike? Idk if you mentioned it in the beginning of that hike, or maybe I have missed something, so just asking to make sure.

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Yes the last hike is the Pico do Areiro to Pico Ruivo hike :)) enjoy!!

[@letsgo......]

Ugh I miss those veiw ✨️ this is the only hike that kicked my a** my legs were dead!!! YeS big walk announcement 🙌 I can't wait to hear what you have planned

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

It’s not easy hey, but yeah I think you’ve done tougher hey? 😂 just those steps in Ribeira Brava we’re enough ahah, can’t wait to have you back !!

[@utra_dora_2337]

We're going to Madeira this saturday, so I'm bingewatching your channel 😊

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Don’t forget to book your tour as well ;))

[@utra_dora_2337]

@@Hittheroadmadeira I just saw that most routes are closed, is that correct?

[@sovationboss]

Did the peaks hike after sunrise but it got all clouded and only cleared up at the end. But that still was one of the best hikes we’ve done so far. 👌🏻

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

You never know what you’re gonna get up there, if you got the sunrise, I’m sure that alone was well worth it!

[@allancurme]

We did the full peak to peak there and back option on this hike. Took a while but we'll worth it for the Poncha and pastel da natas at the end!! 😄

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Ahah I can believe it 😂

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Thanx for the thoughtful comments Allan 🙏

[@RuePhoto]

Thanks Jeff, André, Verónica & Tanya ☺ That was a great guide so I'll definitely take that on board! By the way Jeff, what camera were you using on the stick? Have a truly beautiful week my friends 🤗

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Thanx Rue! It was a GoPro 10 If I’m not mistaken. 10 black

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

And yeah have a great week Rue! Lots of love from Madeira ✌️

[@aliceleroux5301]

Amazing video! Thanks Jeff. Which hikes would you recommend for winter (Dec / Jan)?

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Thanx Alice 🙏 I would still recommend all of them, with due caution of course.

[@debee1544]

Well my stomach was going big time with some of those drops n big open shots.. i think iv a touch of vertigo..will be afraid of freezing...thanks for vid..will.stay at hike 1-4/5 and see how i go😊

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Ahah again, I think in the videos it looks worse than what it is, but hopefully this video helped to get you prepared 🙏 all the best and enjoy Madeira !!

[@RafaelSimoes]

Bom vídeo :) só nao concordo que a vereda do larano seja entry level, é para mim das mais perigosas da lista sempre no abismo e práticamente sem protecção. Abraço

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Boas Rafael, pois eu sei que essa ia ser um bocadinho “criticado” mas, acho que pra uma pessoa que tem muito medo do abysmal, quando ta mesmo o lado do seu pé, que Portela - Ribeiro Frio seria pior. Toda gente tem seu ponte de vista não é :) obrigado pelo comentário, abraço 🙏

I’m in Madeira at the moment. Arrived yesterday. I have been ripped off by the owner of the apartment I am staying at. Claims I didn’t pay the deposit for the accommodation. Insisted I pay the full amount in cash or no keys. I have proof I did pay. Simply ignores my messages. Such a shame. Been really looking forward to my holiday and this has happened. Can’t think of anything else and so disappointed that there are people like this in the world. Now all I’ll remember about Madeira is how my money was stolen, instead of the beautiful scenery and nice culture.

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Hi Simon, I’m sorry to hear what you went through. Have you gone to the police? There must be some form of legal way to get your money back. You could also report to the agency, assuming it was reserved online. Hope it works out for you, don’t give up on Madeira just yet ;)

[@allancurme]

Hey Simon, try not to choose to focus on that situation, I know its hard. Madeira is so, so beautiful with such nice people so get out there and enjoy it, I'm sure one of Jeff's tours will turn around your experience. Get out in the nature and till soon forget your worries :)

[@esarempee]

Thanks both. It’s interesting, I decided to contact the problem landlord and told him that I’d been advised to contact the police regarding this matter. This seemed to hit a nerve with him as he wouldn’t stop messaging me last night. He comes across as quite aggressive and wanted to meet face to face at 11pm. I explained that I wanted all communication to be done through the site I used to book. I have contacted them and asked if they would intervene. He actually admitted via messaging that he had found the payment I made but for some reason it was ‘pending’. I certainly haven’t had any notification of this and both my PayPal account and credit card show the payment was made. I also went today to do the Levada do Furado hike using all the details supplied on a previous video. It was great! Thanks so much for the info, Jeff and crew. Got some great pics and videos and the weather was fantastic! I’ve decided not to pursue the stolen money issue anymore whilst here but wait until I return to the UK. I’ve waited so long to come to Madeira, have been booked twice before but had to cancel both times due to C19 issues. I’m resolved to enjoy the time whilst I’m here. Thanks again both for your comments.

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

@@esarempee good to hear you’re back on track :)) I would take it up with PayPal hey, they’ll get your money back for you I’m sure, I’ve heard this can be done, never had experience myself but have heard of fake purchases etc, online stuff that they actually go after the people that don’t deliver. Hope that makes sense 😂 enjoy the rest of your stay and I believe we may actually have some openings these next few days so you might actually wanna take a tour for the cherry on the cake ;) Cheers bud ✌️

[@markrodgers9527]

Another great video! But have your production team spell check your chitons. 😘 “Bellow” only has one ‘L’

[@Hittheroadmadeira]

Oops 😂 sorry !! 😜
