I'm glad you make the avoidance videos, far more helpful than just 'must do' information. It helped me get the most out of my visit last year ❤

My first time in Madeira with my 8th until the 15th of April!
Really starting to get excited, hoping to do lots of hiking!

Hi Jeff. We just booked a two week stay for January 2025, staying at the Baia Azul. Have been to Madeira four times previously, but this will be our first time going in the middle of winter. Kind of nervous as to what to wear, will be prepared to wear anything, except heavy coats lol We are coming from Canada btw. Great video, keep up the good work 👍

Super dope videos thank you so much. Travelling to Madeira this weekend! Looking to all the outdoors have to offer rain or shine!

[barbarawissinger]

Thank you. I am in my mid-50s and visiting Madeira for the first time next month. Between a bad back and fear of driving limit what I can do, but your information has been very useful.

EXCITED TO VISIT. JUST MADE A DECISION NOW..
WILL KEEP IN TOUCH. GREAT VIDEO

[entrophyentrophy]

Well done! Thanks for sharing this information 😊. I will definitely look you up for a tour when I get there this fall. ❤

Hey Jeff, number 5 made me laugh mate. If you wanna make the big bucks all you (or anyone else) has to do is advertise special tours for instagrammers / influencers where you zoom around the island with the sole purpose of getting them to as many places where they can take pictures of themselves to post as possible within one day, no long stops to actually appreciate the place or anything like that, just a minute at each place to make themselves look good including a restaurant where glorious looking fake rubber food is set up with the perfect backdrop and they take it in turns to jump off the coach into the seat for 30 seconds to take the picture and then jump back on to the next place lol. This kind of thing will definately come (unfortunately), there are already fake studios where influencers can go to take selfies behind fake screen backdrops showing them in all sorts of exotic locations that are inundated with customers lol. Anyway Im glad to see you're back making another video and bringing a bit of the real feel of Madeira to the airwaves!

When making Poncha, make sure to use the caralhinho!

[RebeccaInMadeira]

Thanks Jeff!

Good advice.

We did a couple of your company's tours and one with Lisa from Free Walking Tours Funchal too... All great.

We'll be sure to check out the guitar concerts at the Presbyterian Church of Funchal.

a qualidade do vídeo, de um ponto de vista tecnológico, está top!

[warrickmitchell]

Good video brudda, we’re on our way next week with baby Louie from New Zealand. Are you still
Doing tours? 🤙

[andreborges]

that road down hill is completely insane... i wouldn't go down even if i was walking. Madness...

[timallenuk]

Accidentally came across your video. Loved it! Coming in May 2025 and looking for tours with awesome guides and I think I found you! Want to do sunrise tours where I don't need to rent a caro or worry about wrong routes etc. How do I contact you?

[edwinmeijer]

Hi What a nice and nice explanation. We are coming to Maderia in October. We will definitely book with you. how can we find the restaurant B pt

[TiesiogJazokas]

Coming to Madeira 3rd tine March 12-19!!!

[mywwwow]

Boa tarde querido Jeff,

já eu vi su canal no YouTube. Próxima vez que vou visitar sua ilha preciosa, vou contactar você. 🌷

Meu prazer é tem bom dia🍀

Willi o sol 🌞

[MarcosJPinto]

Que vídeo fantástico!! Or should I say what an awesome video!?
I have no idea, you tell me.
Either way I cannot speak your language, as I'm a Brazilian man, we do speak different languages and I learned this the hard (and funny) way last time I spent some time on a road trip in Northern Portugal, the land of my grandmother.
Ok, espero que você (opa, desculpe) entenda bem brasileiro. 🙂
Muito obrigado pelas dicas, estou compartilhando com minha esposa (que também te segue e eu nem sabia, isso é complicado) e ficou uma dúvida: será que a poncha é mais "punchy" do que a caipirinha brasileira, com limão e cachaça? Ou pelo menos a caipirinha que EU faço.... toma aqui, cai ali... brincadeira, você (epa!) só cai um pouco mais tarde.
Se tudo correr bem, estaremos em Madeira em meados de maio de 2025. A esposa quer fazer road trip mas vou dar uma pressionada para ela aceitar um tour com vocês - assim vou poder tomar uma poncha sem receio.
Ah, sim: gostaria de saber onde posso e, principalmente, onde NÃO posso voar drones. Tenho um DJI Mini 3 registrado, com seguro, tudo aquilo, e gosto de respeitar as leis. Onde consigo informação sobre as leis locais para drones? Agradeceria imensamente se pudesse dar essa dica para eu preparar-me desde já.
Muito obrigado pelo conteúdo bem humorado (lembra-me do meu tio-avô português, meu Tio Augusto, que fazia piada de tudo) e pelas dicas de ouro. Anotadas.
Cá despede-se um brasileiro que vive em uma cidade criada em função do encanto do vosso D Pedro IV pela nossa região, cá conhecido como D Pedro I. Aqui também temos as quatro estações do ano em um só dia em uma região montanhosa a 850 metros - só não temos mar.
Um abraço e, quem sabe, até nos vermos.

I still love Madeiran lane discipline on roundabouts🤣🤣🤣. But when in Madeira...I'll need to give you some lessons if you ever come to the UK. 😉

Could you start putting details of the bars/restaurants you visit in these vlogs in the comments? Especially how to get there? Quite fancy visiting some of them when we visit. We usually stick to the main bits of Funchal but it would be nice to go further afield.

[robmeulendijks]

Did you ask ChatGPT to put them in some order? Otherwise it will just list 20 items 😂. So no order is like a random list…. Once again a great video. 👍🏻
