What an extraordinary Portuguese island and adventure destination, attracting dreamers, discoverers and sight-seekers alike, coaxing us to experience the “Island of Eternal Spring”, this one-of-a-kind paradise perched between Europe and Africa, with a geographical location that boasts an exuberant fusion of subtropical weather, exquisite nature, historical allure, gastronomy and wine heaven. In PART ONE, join us for an adventure across Madeira’s highest peaks, greeting the sunrise at Pico do Arieiro and going for a safari across the island’s heartland and coastal sceneries. We also hike through the stunning 20+ million year old Laurisilva forest and mountains, and see incredible viewpoints on the north of the island. This video also gives you a historical overview of Funchal, helps you understand the city and island’s story, and also urges you to stay at the wonderful “Quintas”, or the oldest historical estates in the island. Visit lush botanical and tropical gardens, and then go for a unique toboggan ride down the slopes of Monte. And this isn’t even half of it. Stay tuned to IN THE MOOD FOR MADEIRA: PART TWO!
