Madeira Portugal

We are flying to Madeira Island, arriving via Warsaw on a direct flight, a few hours on the plane, and the landscapes of Madeira will open up before us. At the airport, our guide will meet all participants and we will travel together to the city of Funchal, where we will spend the first night.

In the evening we will walk around the island, take a cable car ride and get to know each other. And of course, we will celebrate the beginning of our unforgettable Portuguese adventure.

Today we will explore the capital of Madeira, the city of Funchal, which has a lot to surprise us. First, we will go to the Mercado dos Lavradores tropical fruit market to buy something delicious, and then we will go to the Cabo Girão cliff, a place known for its beautiful view of the ocean coast. So we will taste mangoes and look at the ocean.

Funchal is rich in several other interesting things, whoever wants to can visit the Ronaldo Museum, or go to the Columbus schooner, in short, we will not rush, everyone will have time to just enjoy Madeira and look at what they are interested in.

We start our trekking route by walking along the Levada of 25 fountains. In a nutshell, let's tell you about levadas and what they are. They can be found only in Madeira, they are unique irrigation channels through which water flows from wetter areas to arid areas. And the most interesting thing about levadas is that there are hiking trails along them, which are ideal for exploring the mysterious world of Madeira.

Today's route will run along a thin path through twisted trees, which leads to a magical lake and the Rishku waterfall. After today's trekking, we will stop for the night in the town of Porto Moniz.

After yesterday's trekking day, we rested in the town of Porto Moniz, a small and beautiful town where you just want to sit with a glass of wine and look at the ocean. Porto Moniz is also known for its aquarium, for which tourists come from all over Madeira.

The main location for today will be the Ribeira da Janela rock, which is located in the village of the same name. Here we will be able to see one of the most beautiful landscapes of Madeira, believe me, this rock is incredible, you will be fascinated by this place, and the photos will be simply bombastic. We will return to our hotel for the night.

Throughout our trip, we will alternate trekking with relaxation, so today we will take a little walk. First, we will go to the village of Santana, where we will leave all unnecessary things in the hotel and start hiking with small backpacks. We follow the route of the Caldeirão Verde levada, and then cross a wooden bridge over a gorge above the river to the Caldeirão do Inferno route, which leads to the Inferno Falls, these trails will fascinate you. There are not enough words to convey all this beauty.

To make this day even more memorable, we must visit the Madeira Theme Park in Santana, somewhere on Instagram you have definitely seen these small colored houses. After that, we're going to have dinner and rest, it's going to be a very busy day.

The pearl of our trip, today we will climb the highest peak of Madeira, Mount Ruiva, which is 1862 meters high, from this peak the island will be in the palm of our hand and we will be able to see all the corners of this lost world in the ocean.

We will start our trekking not as usual, because the start will be from the top of Arerio, where you can drive up and it is also a very beautiful place, but we will go further, walk through the pass and reach our peak - Pica Ruiva. In the evening we will return to the village of Santana, where we will stay for one more night.

Probably, today alone is worth coming to Madeira, because the incredible Cape of Ponta de São Lorenzo is waiting for us. This is the most Instagrammed place in Madeira, it is very beautiful here, because we will walk along a thin ridge on both sides of which there will be the ocean and waves crashing on the rocks and sparkling in the sun.

This will be the final trekking day of our trip, so after the route we will go swimming in the ocean and watch the sunset. Today we spend the night in the town of Canizal, and at night we will be able to walk along its streets and admire the night Madeira.

Our trip will come to a smooth end, today we will catch a plane home, but the flight is in the afternoon, so in the morning we will have a surprise for you. We will visit another very beautiful place - Mashiku Beach, where we will be able to swim and say a goodbye to Madeira.

We will also return via Warsaw, and from there to Ukraine. So, we will see you in Madeira!
