Madeira

Post Lockdown Escape: The Portuguese Outpost Madeira

Andrew Farr 25 November 2020

With its isolated location, this secluded Portuguese outpost has been a travel corridor staple, and makes a perfect post lockdown escape.

As holiday destinations go, quarantine-free Madeira feels gloriously appropriate at the moment. Regular customers love the beautiful botanical gardens and wild untouched landscapes. Its old world-charm has great appeal too. For an unforgettable experience, encourage them to take a private escorted drive to Arieiro Peak to watch the sunrise from above the clouds. Just one of this magical island’s many hidden gems.

You can book your holiday with confidence with Classic Collection knowing that if travel changes, we are here to offer support and guidance, amend a holiday if necessary, and commit to not charging any amendment fees – only additional supplier costs will apply.
