What to expect

Be part of the festival fun in Funchal this year and see the highlight of Madeira's carnival celebrations, the fabulous parade. Colourful costumes, sky-high headdresses, and enough glitz and glamour to rival Rio, it's an entertainment extravaganza not to be missed.

Dropped in the heart of the action, you can party like a local at the biggest event on the island. And without the worry of finding your own way home, you're free to be swept away in the spirit of things as the capital comes alive with music, dancing and more

Expect plenty of skimpy outfits shaking along to salsa beats and a seemingly endless procession of bands and dancers zigzagging through the streets. Bright, bold and always exciting, Madeira's carnival celebrations put the fun in Funchal. If you're on the island, don't miss out.

Madeira west coast tour with Cabo Girao and lunch in Porto Moniz

Madeira's magnificent scenery takes centre stage on this full day tour. You'll visit a selection of highlights including Cabo Girao Cliff and it's glass-floored platform, Porto Moniz and Paúl da Serra. Mariana, one of our expert local guides, says "you'll get to know the true drama of Madeira's landscapes. You might be lucky enough to see the ocean both to the north and the south, but the highest points on the island do sometimes catch the clouds."Your first destination will be the Cabao Girao Cliff, where you can step out onto its glass-floored platform that stretches out over the edge. The coastal views here are some of the best around, so don't forget your camera. Mariana adds, "the cliff is around 580 metres high, making it one of the tallest in Europe. The views from the skywalk are really something else, and its experience that'll stick with you." Then, you'll head to the coastal town of Riberia Brava, before a stroll through a banana plantation in Madalena do Mar.Next, we'll head up the 1,500m-high Paúl da Serra plateau before descending on Porto Moniz, famous for its natural lava rock swimming pools. A typical meal, freshly prepared with local produce awaits in the village. Rounding off the day is a poncha drink demonstration and tasting in Câmara de Lobos – a favourite holiday spot of Winston Churchill. Mariana says "be careful – poncha is so fruity and refreshing, but it hides a serious brandy kick." What is the itinerary for this experience?
