7/17/24 Fly to Madeira and Funchal, City and Wine Tour
Madeira is also an autonomous archipelago of Portugal, approximately 600 miles southeast of the Azores. It is a paradise with black sand beaches, volcanic vineyards, and intricate irrigation channels. Visitors, particularly those who love the great outdoors, have plenty of activities.
The first settlers chose "Funchal" because of the abundance of wild fennel growing on its shores. It remains an important maritime port and is one of the leading island destinations in Europe.

I'm not a fan of Madeira, but Chris, Don, Jennifer, and Lauri loved it.
