Hellfire, Vic.
For a small place Madeira has one hell of a disaster profile.

And we will be visiting their on our cruise!!
Will probably go in by taxi to Funchal as it is a long walk from the ship and the shuttle bus only drops yu off at the dock entrance.
Stayed In Funchal at the Casino Palace hotel many years ago. We could walk up the hill easily then but will not be doing it on this visit.
