  • Famous for the Monte Toboggans or wicker sledges that take you on a thrill ride down into Funchal Town, Monte was once a health resort for Europe's high society.
    It's famous also because the Austrian Emperor Charles I found exile here during WWI, and it's famous for the Botanical Gardens.
    Join us for another Madeira walking tour high in the hills above Funchal - we'll see the famous Monte-Funchal Cable Car (teleférico funchal-monte,) we'll enjoy the natural beauty and views, and perhaps even take one of the Monte Toboggans (wicker sledges)...stay with us and enjoy and don't forget to turn on the captions for a guided walk.
    Our 4K video walking tour of Funchal Madeira - as close to being there as being there.

    What a peaceful and relaxing walk this is :) I love your slow pace on this one, Mike. And the ultra stable shooting. I just let myself go and enjoy beautiful views of Madeira! And the slow pace makes total sense in contrast with the amazing ride down the hill, in the toboggan! How stunning is that?? Ah ah Thanks so much for this!!

      Hi there Pedro, a pleasure to hear from you, pleased you liked the pace. Monte just seemed to slow us down even more ;) How are things for you in Portugal, going well I hope. Any thoughts of a trip away? We'd love to meet you in Madeira at Christmas, have you been?

      @@LivingWalks Hey there Mike!! Yes, I really did enjoy this video a lot. It relaxed me - and I'm needing that quite a lot these days ah ah. As for trips... I'll be in Oporto several times from now on, and also Seville. So, some more Oporto videos will appear on Zen Walks, and also Seville ones. Madeira: yes,. I've been there in the past, but long ago! I would love to go back. And it would be so amazing to meet you at Christmas that, that's for sure!!! Let's see how our plans go, and all the projects in between. You're staying there for now?

      Hi Pedro, wow that's good to hear that you are out and about again. I look forward to seeing the footage of those places, especially Seville. I feel sure we'll meet up sometime even if we make a special trip to Lisbon to meet you. We've just returned from Madeira and we'll be going back in December and January. A lovely time to be there I think. So yes drop us a line if you'd like us to send you the Madeira footage and let us know what you think you might have in return, we'd like that.

    Hi, L.W. ! Very good, excellent shooting, picking up on the relaxed vibe of lovely Monte, and it’s views over Funchal. I never did take the toboggan ride down the hill. Have you given it a go ? It looks like the weather is perfect for exploring the challenging slopes and steps. I like this district a lot 👍. Cheers, Don 👋. ( Oh ! Now I have my answer !! As you set off down the hill 👍 🛷 ⛰ 🙋‍♂️ )

    • @LivingWalks
      @LivingWalks  2 года назад +1

      Good evening Don, yes I found myself walking extra slowly here, I nearly nodded off watching it back. Well you absolutely have to return and stay in your fine hotel and do the toboggan ride, I do think it's as fun as it looks but you still have quite a walk or taxi ride at the end into Funchal. Always a pleasure to hear from you.

      How do they stop them? Good point, they just seem to jump off and drag them to a holt! But then again I couldn't quite see what was happening behind as I was too occupied trying not to fall out ha ha. Great fun though! I'll add the full ride shortly.
      Glad it's one of your favourites.
      Interesting to hear about the botanical gardens in Hawaii.

    My dearest, dearestr, Y&M!
    Sorry for not being heard for a while '. I assure you that you are always in my heart!
    Let's say this is not exactly a very happy time for me.
    I lost my job and will have to protect myself for my rights.
    And, as if that were not enough, I made a nice "trip" to the emergency room that lasted a night and a whole day. Nothing to worry about, fortunately, but evidently the accumulated stress made itself felt. And the stomach and intestines are the first to suffer ....
    Now, however, I feel better, after an anti-inflammatory antibiotic therapy.
    I really can't wait for this annus horribilis to pass and to turn the page and start over.
    My precious friend! I hope everything goes well for you! Your holiday in Madeira went great, I see! This location is really perfect even this season, not to mention especially this season, in my opinion.
    Perfect for enjoying the sea in complete relaxation. A place really full of charm. I'm falling in love with it through your walks!
    My dearest friends, I hear very bad news coming from the UK for the covid. Please, take always good care! This damn virus just doesn't want to go ... E
    soon it will be Christmas .....
    We hope to be able to spend it more peacefully than last year!
    My precious, precious Y&M, I love you very much and I embrace you with all my love.
    We hope to be able to travel more safely next year. This year it went like this .....
    HUGS and much love and happy weekend! Renata

      Dearest Renata,
      How nice to hear from you, we have been thinking of you.
      We are sad to hear that this hasn't been an easy time for you and so sorry that you lost your job and then also ended up in the emergency room for a night and a whole day, I'm not surprised that you have been feeling stressed!
      We are pleased to know you feel a little better though now after this annus horribilis, let's hope the worst is over for you.
      Things are fine here for us.
      We're both missing the sunshine and laid back feeling of Madeira very much though, so it has been a bit of a challenge being at home in the colder weather.
      I do agree it is certainly a place really full of charm. I
      'm glad you are falling in love with it through our walks as we have done by being there.
      Yes, so soon it will be Christmas and we will be back in Madeira once again for 5 weeks.
      We will have spend 15 weeks this year on the Island so you can see how much we love it.
      As you say let's hope to be able to travel more safely next year.
      I think you must be missing it very much.Y
      ou'll have to join us in Madeira one of these days?
      HUGS and much love back from us Y&M xx
