Learn from the best in the industry and take awe inspiring photos in the beautiful Island of Madeira, Portugal.

Imagine yourself taking in the beautiful sea breeze while sipping a delicious Pancha beverage watching the waves crash along the beautiful Madeira Island coast as the sun goes down. Or maybe- watch the fog roll in early morning in the mystical Fanal Forest, one of the last remaining Fanal tree forests of its kind. What about viewing the beautiful land from the highest peak in Madeira as the clouds float below you. If this all sounds amazing, I haven't even gotten to the beautiful photos we will be taking yet!

 This 7 day, 6 night trip will be filled with breath taking photos, unique landscapes, world-class education and equal days of your choice to relax or get adventurous and explore! We might even have a surprise up our sleeves for a one of a kind excursion included in your trip. (We love a good surprise) If the photos below don't convince you enough, then keep reading to learn about our educators and accomodations!

Hotel Accommodations: Kempinski Hotel

To be honest, I wasn’t expecting such a nice hotel to be part of a tour. Kempinski Hotel was in a great location in Amman’s central business district, the service was outstanding, and the rooms were very comfortable with the biggest and best pillows I’ve ever had. The bathroom towels were gigantic and just as luxurious as the fluffy robe. I couldn’t have wished for a more comfortable bed for the 13 hour sleep I had on my first evening - after 30 hours without it.

Spending 15 minutes each day in the complimentary steam and sauna room in the Spa helped me recover from jet lag. The buffet breakfast and dinners were also delicious and full of Jordanian food. Hotel breakfast and dinner buffets are included in the Globus tour. There are local restaurants within walking distance to the hotel if you want to eat out. You will love having 5 Star accommodation at affordable prices on your Escape by Globus tours.
