Madeira and the Azores

Far off the coast of Portugal, Madeira and the Azores reveal their volcanic landscapes, edged with unique vegetation. The call of the great outdoors resonates in this green kaleidoscope. Vertiginous cliffs, calderas shrouded in mist and levadas (irrigation channels) winding their way through the mountains invite visitors to go hiking. In the small towns, time stretches slowly to make way for leisurely strolls and historical discovery, like on the islands of Porto Santo or Santa Maria, marked by the passage of Christopher Columbus. 

In the balm of July, - the best period to discover these shores -, don’t miss your chance to visit the colourful market of Funchal or the Manueline-style elegant archways of Ponta Delgada, two ports of call with an overnight stay to let you fully immerse yourself in the surroundings, between adventure and lifestyle. And to extend the magic, why not treat yourself to a second break, entirely dedicated to discovering the Azores?
