Madeira, Portugal
Today the ship drops anchor at the Portuguese island of Madeira. Nicknamed the 'floating garden' due to its lush flora and fauna, there is no place that typifies this more than Funchal's Botanical Gardens. Ride in the cable car up to Monte, before returning back down to the city in a traditional toboggan? Head to the east of the island to admire the views from Pico de Arieiro, or venture west to visit the picturesque village of Câmara del Lobos and the Cabo Girão Skywalk. Take a ferry to the neighbouring island of Porto Santo, a beach-lovers paradise, or take a baptism dive with sharks and tropical fish at Aquario da Madeira. For the ultimate treat, why not enjoy a traditional afternoon tea at the famous Belmond Reid's Palace Hotel in Funchal?

Begin your day in the island’s capital, Santa Cruz de La Palma, where cobbled streets, colorful balconies, and colonial charm await. Take a hike through the lush landscapes of Caldera de Taburiente National Park, a volcanic crater surrounded by pine forests and waterfalls. For panoramic island views, head up to the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory, perched above the clouds. Wander through the serene village of Los Llanos or visit the dramatic volcanic landscapes of the south, including the San Antonio and Teneguía volcanoes. Looking for something truly unique? Stargazing on this Starlight Reserve island is world-class. Round off your visit with a taste of local mojo sauce and a glass of sweet Malvasía wine.

Relax on the golden sands of Playa de Las Canteras, or head inland to discover dramatic mountain landscapes and quaint villages like Tejeda. Thrill-seekers can venture into the Maspalomas Dunes, a rolling desert by the sea, or hike through pine-scented trails in the island’s mountainous interior. For panoramic views, visit the iconic Roque Nublo or the scenic viewpoint of Pico de las Nieves. Don’t miss the chance to sample Canarian specialties like papas arrugadas and fresh seafood at a seaside restaurant, all while soaking in the island’s laid-back charm.

Finish your day with local wine and Canarian specialties as the sun sets over the Atlantic.
