Travel to Madeira

A more responsible tailor-made journey directly with the best local agencies

Sprouting from the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, the island of Madeira is renowned for its gentleness: its mild climate (even winters are nice here…) or simply the gentle way of life, which will no doubt charm you! Located 500 kilometres from the Moroccan coast and 1000 kilometres from Europe, Madeira has a separate identity. Inhabited only since the 15th Century, it is neither totally Portuguese nor Mediterranean and its people have shaped themselves a unique culture. Madeira’s origins are volcanic and, influenced by ocean currents, its subtropical climate stays constant: the seasons differ little and you can visit the island all year round! Perhaps you will choose to go according to when its astonishing vegetation bursts into life?! Madeiran flora is as varied as it is abundant. Camellias, azaleas, bougainvillea, mimosa, amaryllis, bird of paradise…in all seasons, whether you are an amateur or a specialist, Madeira’s flowers provide a constant feast of colour for the senses! On an island suiting nature lovers perfectly, there are many things to discover: relaxing at the coast, hiking in the mountains or walking around and experiencing its rich heritage. It’s up to you to choose the balance you’d like to strike during your trip to Madeira!
