A stone's throw from Africa's coast, nestled in the azure sea, lies the "Flower Island" Madeira, a place that prides itself on its breathtaking natural beauty. This enchanting island has been named the best European destination six times by the prestigious World Travel Awards.
During a week you explore Madeira's most iconic hikes and areas: tackle the winding levadas and coastal paths that offer magnificent panoramic views, experience charming traditional villages, see the characteristic terraced cultivation that climbs along the island's slopes, admire an abundance of beautiful flowers that adorn the landscape, explore the dramatic ravines, hike through the ancient Laurissilva forest, marvel at the majestic waterfalls and end your adventure with a dip in the enticing natural pools. The last day is dedicated to the pleasant capital Funchal.
Tip! Book extension to neighboring island Porto Santo for swimming and relaxation after the trip.
