Day by day

Itinerary

  1. 1

    Welcome to Madeira

    Welcome to Funchal, capital of Madeira, the Portuguese island in the Atlantic known for its year-round climate, steep volcanic landscape and long tradition of trade, winemaking and agriculture. After arriving and settling into your hotel, join your small group for dinner and get your first taste of the local flavours that reflect the island’s distinct identity.

  2. 2

    Food & Culture in Funchal

    Make the most of a leisurely morning on Madeira, whether that means time by the sea, enjoying your resort’s facilities or heading into Funchal for a look around the capital. Or choose an Optional Experience to the south-west of the island, taking in Ponta do Sol, the Cabo Girão skywalk and Câmara de Lobos. Join a Local Specialist for a foodie walking tour that introduces you to Madeira through its flavours and culture. As you explore Funchal, learn how the island’s history has shaped its food scene, with local tastings bringing the stories to life. Visit the lively Lavradores Market, then walk along Santa Maria Street, known for its painted doors and murals.

  3. 3

    Funchal at Leisure

    Today is yours to enjoy Madeira at your own pace. You could browse the boutiques of Funchal, explore the old town streets of Zona Velha or take the cable car up to Monte for views over the bay and the city below. You could also join an Optional Experience and experience the island's nature by exploring the mountain forests with a Local Specialist on a Levada trail hike.

  4. 4

    Farewell Madeira

    This morning, your stay in Madeira comes to an end. After breakfast, bid farewell to your Travel Director and fellow travellers as your tour concludes in Funchal.

Travel at 60 Social Getaways

Travel further when you're not travelling alone

Our Social Getaways are small-group holidays designed especially for over-60s Australians who want the freedom of a great trip without the work of planning every detail. A Travel at 60 host travels with the group, the operator handles the logistics, and you get to focus on the bit that matters — the people, the places, and the stories you'll bring home.

Open to solo travellers too. Many of our travellers book on their own and find their feet quickly in a friendly group of like-minded Australians. Reduced single-supplement options are available on most departures — ask one of our consultants and we'll talk you through what's offered on this trip.

  • A friendly Travel at 60 host — an Australian face on the ground, looking out for the group from day one.
  • Curated local guides & boutique suppliers — the same operators we'd book for our own families.
  • Real itineraries, not whirlwind tours — comfortable transfers, breathing room, and the “off the beaten track” stops the big bus tours skip.

Want to talk it through? Call 1300 414 198 7 days a week, Queensland time, and one of our consultants will walk you through it.
