A lovely video you have made. A small correction: Pestano Churchill Bay is not the place, it is a hotel. The place is called Camara de Lobos. Worth visiting and painting! You can even make a very nice walking tour from Funchal to Camara de Lobos and back along the coast.
Oh no, thanks so much for pointing that out. Great tip about doing that walk! It would be stunning. I can’t make the edit in the video but will pin this comment.
@@YYZWanderers It is a long video and Portuguese is not easy ! If I remember well Camara de Lobos translates to the Chamber of Wolves, but it refers to the sea lions once resting here when the place was discovered by the Portuguese.
The Madeira government has just implemented a trail-use fee of 3€ immediately on it´s most popular hikes and must be paid online before your hike on their Symplifica website. If you don’t, you can face a fine of about 50€. More trails will be added over time so be sure to check.
Beautiful video. I enjoyed the personal commentaries. It is surprising to see how busy Madeira can be in the off season - definitely something to keep in mind.
I wanted to say you did a fabulous job on your video. My family and I went to Portugal recently and madeira was definitely one area we went to, as my Parents and siblings were from Madeira . It's absolutely beautiful there, and there areas indeed, Thankyou for sharing 🙏👌👍 🇵🇹 ❤️...
As a subscriber, I was surprised to see this was twice as long as previous videos, but was rewarded by the history, scenery, and variety that this truly amazing, rugged little island provides. I would be daunted by hiking trails that go through tunnels, under waterfalls, and along high, cliff-hugging carved paths less than two feet wide. Only vicariously could I enjoy many of the spectacular vistas the video shows. My favorite scene was the blow hole at Porto da Cruz. From where it was shot, could you hear a thunderous roar?
I wish we got better sound, the blow hole was called Whale Cave and if it’s just right, it does sound like a whale! So much to see in Madeira, harder to edit 😆 thanks so much for your support!!!
I love how in depth and informative you go in this video! Since it is budget friendly, how much would you say is a good budget for this length of trip?
If you jump to 36:33 (chapter links in the description also), we laid out how much we spent on airfare, accommodations and car rentals for 2 people, 2 weeks. Sorry, it looks like the video ended before this but there’s a whole section at the end with the details. I’ll keep that in mind for our next video. FYI, restaurant mains cost 15-25 euros per person. Groceries are inexpensive, and we made use of the kitchen at our accommodations to offset some costs. Let us know if you have anymore questions.
@@YYZWanderers Oh perfect! We are planning pretty much those exact dates in 2025! It looks like we should pack some warmer clothes as well as some summer ones. Could you swim while there, was the water warm enough? Loved your video, will definately be doing some of the hikes!!
