With 5 days in Madeira, you'll have time to experience the city's highlights. What makes Madeira special is how much wild landscape sits within an hour of your hotel. Hundreds of kilometres of levadas, the narrow irrigation channels carved into the mountainsides since the 15th century, double as gently graded footpaths into mossy valleys and past waterfalls.
