Madeira "The Floating Garden"
Eight days among levadas, Laurisilva forests, and ocean views
Madeira is an ideal destination for nature and trekking lovers, thanks to its year-round spring climate and majestic mountains rising from the deep blue ocean. The island is crisscrossed by a dense network of trails and levadas (traditional irrigation channels), suitable for all kinds of hikes.
Dense Laurisilva forests, with over three-quarters of the island protected by a natural park and recognized as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, make Madeira a unique place, offering an extraordinary variety of landscapes.
Our journey will be a tour full of nuances: we will immerse ourselves in trails that wind through mountains and tunnels, moving from woodlands to coastal paths, with spectacular views and unique perspectives over the ocean. Nature will be the absolute protagonist, lush and green, accompanied by a complete program of excursions.
There will also be time for urban visits during your free hours in Funchal, the island's main hub, with its Mercado dos Lavradores, the waterfront, and the historic center. We will also visit some small, authentic, and charming villages, as well as the spectacular Cabo Girão Skywalk.
Get ready to experience an unforgettable adventure.
