Winter Sun Holidays to Madeira

Short haul

Pearl of the Atlantic — levada hikes, Cabo Girão skywalk, and Europe’s most spectacular NYE fireworks. 20°C winters.

Duration Flexible
Type Holiday
From From £429

Pearl of the Atlantic — levada hikes, Cabo Girão skywalk, and Europe’s most spectacular NYE fireworks. 20°C winters.

“Pearl of the Atlantic” — subtropical cliffs, UNESCO Laurisilva forest, 2,000km of levada walks, and 18–22°C winters. Mild rather than hot, and the best winter walking in Europe.
Funchal’s old town, wine lodges and café culture make an easy base. Widely rated among Europe’s top winter sun picks — and home to what many call Europe’s most spectacular New Year’s Eve fireworks (10,000 rockets from the hillsides above the harbour).

Package includes

  • Return flights from a UK airport
  • Airport transfers
  • 7 nights B&B in Funchal
  • ATOL & ABTA protection
  • Named specialist support
Day 1 Day 1 — Funchal & botanical garden

Fly into FNC (~3.5 hrs). Explore Zona Velha and Mercado dos Lavradores, then an evening Madeira wine lodge tasting at Blandy’s.

Day 2 Day 2 — Levada walk & Monte toboggan

Levada dos Balcões through laurel forest to the Metade Valley mirador; Monte Palace Tropical Garden; classic wicker toboggan ride downhill.

Day 3 Day 3 — Cabo Girão & Câmara de Lobos

Europe’s highest sea cliff glass skywalk (580m), Churchill’s favourite fishing harbour, espetada lunch and a poncha tasting.

Day 4 Day 4 — Pico do Arieiro & east tip

Sunrise above the clouds at Pico do Arieiro (1,818m), then Ponta de São Lourenço peninsula walk over turquoise water. Warm layers essential at altitude.

Day 5 Day 5 — Porto Moniz & depart

Natural volcanic lava pools on the wild northwest coast, seafood overlooking the Atlantic, then transfer to FNC.

Tell us walking ability and whether you want a guided levada day. Specialists send three Madeira packages within four hours.

Insider tips: Jan–Feb is quietest and often ~40% cheaper. Book NYE months ahead. Hire a car from day 2 — levadas and villages aren’t bus-friendly.
