Volcanic Islands of the Azores & Madeira

No-Fly Cruise from Southampton

With visits to the historic capital, a remote archipelago and the ‘garden island’, this cruise presents the fascinating culture and nature of Portugal. You can delve into the Age of Discovery in the UNESCO-listed city of Angra do Heroísmo – reached from Praia da Vitória – and also in Lisbon. The Sete Cidades crater lakes is a great example of the Azores’ volcanic landscapes, while Madeira’s unique levada walking trails and botanical gardens make for rewarding exploration.
