Kaupunkia koskevat ohjeet

Mitä kannattaa pakata mukaan

Pack layers

While the weather is pretty moderate throughout the year, Madeira is an island of microclimates - it can get chilly on the mountain peaks, windy on the cliffs, and a bit colder and rainy in the North.
Liikkuminen

Rent a small car with strong engine

We recommend getting a small car with a stronger engine in order to navigate the narrow and very steep streets of Madeira
