Portugal and Madeira Holidays
If tropical botanic gardens, gorgeous cliff walks and luscious wine-tasting sessions appeal, then you'll love our Portugal resorts and our Madeira holidays.
Take a holiday on volcanic Madeira Island and enjoy year-round sunshine combined with dramatically beautiful scenery. Pines and palms grow off craggy cliff edges; walk across mountain 'levada' trails carpeted in colourful hydrangeas, fuchsias and geraniums. Our Madeira holidays include the beautiful resort of Funchal, which rises up the hillside in tiers.
Our Portugal resorts range from the lively, hilly city of Porto with its historic ramparts and rattling trams, to the lush Douro valley, where medieval hilltop villages and vineyards offer endless romantic vistas.
