    This is, hands down, my favorite post of yours, and I may have seen them all. I love your "director's commentary" style walking tour format. Never seen one this thorough and well-paced. Through you, I get to visit Madeira often. I sorely want to visit, will make it there in about 2 years. Cheers, great content!

    Ola Jeff and Andre! Long time viewer of the channel since 2001 but for whatever reason never saw this vid! Just immigrated to the island 3 weeks ago and we are settling in, and we found the content in this vid especially relevant given our new situation! Hope to see you around!

    I liked this one Jeff, its more down to earth. I agree, Funchal is wonderfull to visit and experience. Funny thing since my arrival in Jan, I haven't run into to any snowbirds here ? It seems that the Canadian migration of snowbirds during the winter seem to be missing out on this lovely Island paradise...It has so much to offer!

    Hi Jeff. Have a question for you regarding a place to stay. We are planning our first trip to Maderia. Plan to stay for 11 days then off to Azores. Is the area you are staying in thus video a nice area? Also we are looking at São Martinho area by the beach. Which area do you prefer. New to your channel and loving the content. Will definitely look you up for a tour when we arrive.
    Thanks ,George

    I watched a 4k walk and the poor "beachgoers" are just lying on concrete. Funchal was top of my list for golden visa before I saw that. Edit: Great walk and informative! New restrictions now mean I can't invest in Porto or Lisbon for golden visa. I'm a crypto investor and looking to spend 500-600k on a property euro with wife and 2 kids. Any tips on best central neighbourhood/ upcoming developments would be appreciated.

    I’m an American who lived on Madeira some years ago, and it’s impossible to believe anyone would want to put the puke that is American fast food in their mouth when they could have any native Madeiran cuisine instead. The hot fresh bread rolls alone are are way better, they kept me from eating American store-bought bread for a whole year after I came back.
