On arrival, you will be transferred to the Pestana Casino Park (5T) and greeted with a complimentary welcome drink. Day 2 Funchal This morning we depart on a tour of Funchal and a guided walk through the flower market, a riot of colour with the exotic orchid and bird-of-paradise flowers, an array of freshly-caught fish and succulent fruits harvested locally. We visit ‘Patricio & Gouveia’, a leading embroidery factory, where the intricate work of exquisite patterns can be seen. Following a visit to the Botanical Gardens, the tour concludes at the Madeira Wine Company, where you may wish to sample the local wine. Day 3 Christmas Eve - Funchal After a leisurely breakfast, there is time for shopping in Funchal, further exploration of the island, or relaxing in the delightful surrounds of your hotel. This evening, a Christmas Eve gala dinner will be served and accompanied by musical entertainment in the hotel’s restaurant. Those wishing to participate in the Christmas Eve celebrations are free to do so and your local representative will be happy to advise you on this. Please note: A formal dress code applies for Christmas Eve Gala Dinner, gentlemen are required to wear a dinner jacket.

We travel on to Monte, a hill-town above Funchal, to visit Lady of the Church of Nossa Senhora do Monte set in its own evergreen gardens. Dinner is included this evening. Day 6 Funchal Today is at leisure to further explore Funchal. However, for those wishing to discover the natural beauty this island has to offer, there is an optional tour which encompasses Pico da Torre viewpoint, marked by a cross dedicated to the National Revolution, overlooking picturesque bays; and Cabo Girao viewpoint, sitting on the highest promontory in Europe at 580m. Continue through the mountains to Sao Vicente, set where a beautiful valley meets the sea, and visit Pousada dos Vinhaticos, surrounded by a lush undulating landscape 900m above sea level.
