    Getting TO/AROUND: Cheap and cheerful, we spent a full day travelling to the north side of the island on a bus with only 3 other passengers. We had lunch overlooking the sea from a terraced cafe with only 2 other people. We travelled back over the mountains down the centre of Maderia to Funchal and the whole experience cost only 20.00pounds for the 2 of us,including lunch!! We set out at 9.ooam and got back at 8.00pm, not a bad ehh??

    Getting TO/AROUND: When arriving in Maderia it was quiet a shock to come around a mountain and almost straightaway see the runway, they have extended it lately so it must have been tiny before. I must admit I was helping the pilot to brake!!!
