Once in the air, this means of transport becomes a moving panoramic viewpoint. The view you get from one of the cable cars in Madeira is invariably dominated by the colours that define this seaside garden: the blue of the sky, which blends on the horizon with the blue of the Atlantic, the green of the island's tropical flora and the orange of the rooftops that sprinkle almost the entire hillside.
