    If I understand well, you said that Pico do Arieiro is the highest lookout in Madeira. This isn't true. Pico do Arieiro is the highest lookout which you can go with car. But the highest mountain in Madeira is Pico Ruivo.

      Hi Anna! We would recommend Miradouro da Boca do Inferno. It’s a fairly easy hike and one of the most popular and beautiful ones on the island! Make sure to check the webcams before going though because it can be cloudy a lot of the time.

    Good place to live as a young single lad(mid 20's)?
    Went to Azores and it was pretty boring, don't think I was the right age for the place. Very good for couples, families and retirees but not really young, vibrant and happening which is totally fine but not what I am looking for.
    Does Madeira have many young people (20-30), fun stuff to do, party atmosphere and innovative work things going on?
    Thanks a mill for the videos!

    Hello fellow Canadians. Love your videos. I'm heading to Portugal for five weeks. I'm planning a visit to Madeira. I noticed you were pushing the Savoy Properties pretty hard... was that a paid sponsor you are promoting? They seem super expensive... Airbnb has a much more reasonable nightly rate there. Btw, nice drone shots in your videos.

    Madeirans are very far from a progressive, tolerant society and are very attached to an old, very backwards, uneducated way of living but the island has great infrastructure, absurd natural beauty and much dignity. It's diametrically opposed to mainland Portugal.
