In this video, we’re exploring the beautiful island of Madeira, an autonomous region of Portugal located in the Atlantic Ocean around 520 km west of Morocco.

To get around, we’ll be utilising a rather unconventional mode of transport, a powerful ex-army 4×4.

Setting off from Funchal, the island’s capital, we drive to Miradouro de São Sebastião, try some Poncha, go on the hunt for tropical fruit, go on a levada walk, go for a swim Porto Moniz Natural Swimming Pools and admire the scenery along the island’s northern coastline.
