Boeing CS-TBR, B727-200, "Sacadura Cabral"

I’ll be totally honest with you, until a trip to Madeira was suggested to me a couple of months ago, I hadn’t heard too much about the Portuguese Island. When I mentioned the upcoming trip to my parents, they agreed it was a place synonymous with the older generation or those who want a quiet holiday. So it’s safe to say I didn’t really know what to expect, other than no wild parties. But after a 4 hour flight, we touched down in Funchal and were instantly pleasantly surprised. Our trip was indeed relaxed, but jam packed with activities, incredible food and lots of laughter. The booking was made with Jet2 Holidays , I text my lovely friend Misha to see whether she was up for a girly trip – and away we went. So sit back, relax and let me take you through the ULTIMATE guide to a new favourite island of mine.
