YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

In this video, we're docking in the port of Funchal, Medeira (Portugal). This is a completely new port for me, so I can't wait to show you what you can get up to if visiting this island as part of your future holiday/cruise! This video is part of a series, where I'm taking you on a 1-week adventure to Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, Madeira and then finishing in Tenerife! I'll be onboard for one full week, and this series will cover each of these ports, plus life onboard P&O Azura, which is one of the cruise ships from P&O Cruises. If you're new to my channel, hello! I'm Fraser, and I'm hoping to use this channel to introduce as many people as possible to the cruise industry. It's no secret that I absolutely fell in love with this mode of travel/holidaying a few years ago, and I want to now share my passion with you guys, by taking you on my travels with me! So, that's enough typing for now - hit that 'subscribe' button and let's go - I've got SO MUCH to show you!
