Excellent General Review5
This is an excellent, detailed guide book. Summarising the key sights and activities with colour photos at the beginning and then going into more depth later in the book. Definitley recommend this book as your guide to Madeira. And it includes a CD-ROM. Great value through Amazon.

Excellent short guide4
This was a great find. It really helped fill in gaps that my other 2 guides didn't. My only complaint was the few colour pictures, most are in B&W. The descriptions were all accurate as far as I could tell and the cafe/restaurant recommendations were useful. The fact that it fits in a pocket was also handy.
