Hi!
Thank you for sharing.
Nice views!
Greetings from a Portuguese ❤️
Great video and place! 👍I think that the locations you've choosen are excellent, right up my alley, and look forward to watch your next trip to Madeira. (Subscribed!)
Thanks so much Stuart! Every single place we visited was as pretty as a painting (and more!) We're heading back in March for more adventures, so expect lots more viewpoints, hikes and mountain scenery :) Thank you for the support as always, take care! Susie
환상적이고 신비한 자연의 조화~~
꼭 가보고 싶은 곳, 친절한 가이드에 감사드립니다!~
wow
Amazing video, we are going in June 24, so made a note of these places.
What drone did u use and is drone use allowed there?
You'll have a great time in Madeira - we loved it so much, we went again since our first visit in November. We put together a list of 5- things to do on the island incase you want to check that out too: ua-cam.com/video/mYIsgnTC5fA/v-deo.html
As for the drone, we use the DJI Mavik 3. You can use the drone in Madeira, but you'll need to check online to find out where you can/ cannot fly. Hope this helps! :)
Thanks for sharing. Are many of the flowers and plants in bloom in November?
Thanks for following, Eric! Oh yes - they definitely are! Madeira's home to some wonderful tropical plants and flowers. Everywhere you walk, you'll come across some of the most lush plants and flowers you've ever seen. The viperine madere and the strelitza are our favourites!
Hi guys, great video!
We are going to Madeira in June, do you recommend staying in Funchal and another town (ideally in the other side of the isle) or only in Funchal as the main base?
Thank you for your tips!
Hi Claudia, thank you for watching our 7 days in Madeira travel video :) We recommend staying in Funchal if you want to be near the heart of the action. Funchal town is great; you can visit the market, see the street art, wander around the town and eat at the many restaurants on offer. The promenade is also fantastic! If you're looking for a more relaxing, holiday atmosphere, Lido is also a good option too. You're close to the beach, and the hotels are generally larger and have swimming pools.
We've also created a travel guide on 50 of the top things to do in Madeira on our channel, if you want to check it out: ua-cam.com/video/mYIsgnTC5fA/v-deo.html
Also, we have a written guide on where to stay in Funchal, with a list of the best hotels here: worldtraveltoucan.com/where-to-stay-in-funchal/
I hope this helps! Have a great trip :) Susie
Great Video. May i ask to share day wise itinerary please? Thanks much 😊
Hi Raj, thanks for your comment. Are you going for a week? If not, how many days are you planning on going for? Also, are you going to be renting a car, or will you be doing tours? Susie
@@ToucanTravellers Yes please we will be renting a car & we will be Arriving funchal on 28th May @ 7am & Will be departing on 2nd June @ 6am.
Appreciate your pointers
Cheers 🍻
@@rajnaidu8401 You're going to have a great time! :) Here's our suggested itinerary.
Day 1 - 28th - Funchal city centre in the morning. Afternoon - Funchal Cable Car to Monte Palace Tropical Gardens and Botanical Gardens.
Day 2 - 29th - Madeira’s east coast - Praia de Machico, São Lourenço walking trail, Guindaste viewpoint, Santana town.
Day 3 - 30th - Madeira south coast - Câmara de Lobos, Cabo Girao viewpoint, Ponta do Sol, Paul do Mar waterfall, Praia da Calheta
Day 4 - 31st - 25 Fontes walking trail / Risco waterfall, Fanal Forest, Ribeira da Janela, Porto Moniz, Seixal Beach
Day 5 - 1st - Pico do Arieiro and the Valley of the Nuns - Remaining Funchal sites in the afternoon.
For each day, take it slow and see what you can. I’ve packed lots into the itinerary, but you might not be able to see everything in one day depending on how many walks you want to do and how long you spend in each place. You could remove a full day for rest/relaxation in Funchal and still see a lot if you follow the itinerary on the other day. It all depends on how much you want to do.
Have a great time! Let me know if you have any other questions.
@@ToucanTravellers You are truly the best. Much Love ❤️ 😍
‘supp?-nice !✨
Love the video. Just curious when your video was filmed? Was it in Nov? I'm contemplating going this Nov/Dec 2023.. Thanks.
You're right - it was filmed early November last year :) Madeira's temperature is pleasant all year round. It was around 24 degrees Celsius in November. Check out our other video for inspiration on more things to do on the island here: ua-cam.com/video/mYIsgnTC5fA/v-deo.html :)
Sad story alert. Lost almost all of our footage from Madeira. However, it is epic. My favorite of 47 islands I have visited thus far. Cheers to your travels and channel. Subed to keep up. If you like culture, history, nature, and food, you might like our stuff too. Feel free to check it out. Gracias. - Turtle
What a shame!! Possibly the worst place where you can lose footage :( Sorry to hear that! Glad you share our love for this magical island - we're going back again in March next year and cannot wait!! Thanks for the support and we'll check out your channel for sure! Susie
@@ToucanTravellers Excited for you. We might make it in 2025 while we are scheduled to be in Portugal on our World tour. Happy trails.
