Creator's Key Takeaways

I woke up really early because I wanted to see the sail into Madeira as it was the first bit of land that we've seen in over three days

the weather was perfect and it looked absolutely stunning the island of Madeira with all of its lights lit up early in the morning

we absolutely loved it and we were howling with laughter and he had a very dry sense of humor which made us all laugh as well

I would thoroughly recommend that if Gareth Oliver is on your cruise make sure that you watch him because he is fantastic

Creator's Tips & Advice

Consider visiting Madeira for its stunning scenery and mild weather, even in winter
If Gareth Oliver is performing on your cruise, make sure to watch his show
Walk back to the ship instead of taking the shuttle to explore more of the port area
