Day 1 - Santa Cruz De Tenerife, Tenerife

Day 2 - Playa Blanca, Lanzarote

Day 3 - La Gomera

Arrive: Thu 23 December 2021 at 07:00 / Depart: Thu 23 December 2021 at 16:30

La Gomera is the Canary Islands stripped bare. Its beaches are quiet, its villages are sleepy and its countryside is fleeced with forests and dramatic mountain ridges. The catalogue of valleys and ravines make the island an obvious choice for walkers. But trekking isn’t the only activity on offer here. Scuba divers can swim through bath-warm waters as they search for tuna, parrotfish and trumpet fish.

Day 4 - Funchal

Arrive: Fri 24 December 2021 at 07:00 / Depart: Fri 24 December 2021 at 16:30

Madeira is more than sweet wine. It's an excuse to enjoy fine beaches, explore beautiful gardens and discover why Funchal is called the Pearl of the Ocean. Whether you want to enjoy a relaxing stroll along the promenade, visit the traditional and colourful flower market in the centre of Funchal, or taste the lovely wine that takes the island's name, Madeira has it all and more. Rising from the sea to the mountainside, the capital, Funchal, is a gardener's paradise with Birds of Paradise flowers, banana plantations, farms and vineyards everywhere. If you go shopping, don't miss the Se, the famous 16th century cathedral. If you have time visit Camacha, east of Funchal, known as the centre of Madeira's willow craft, and the hillside town of Monte which you can reach via a breathtaking cable car ride.

Day 5 - At Sea

Day 6 - Fuerteventura

Arrive: Sun 26 December 2021 at 07:00 / Depart: Sun 26 December 2021 at 16:30

Fuerteventura is the Canary Island of choice for beach connoisseurs. Its coastline morphs from the 10 kilometre-long blonde sweep in the Parque Natural de las Dunas to the wind-whipped sands in Playa de Sotavento, which hosts the Windsurfing World Championships every year. Away from the coast, the island’s interior is blanketed with lava fields, euphorbia valleys and clock-stopped villages.

Day 7 - Gran Canaria

Arrive: Mon 27 December 2021 at 07:00 / Depart: Mon 27 December 2021

This sub-tropical oasis is the ideal place to relax. With its tranquil beaches of volcanic sand, you'll find it remarkably easy to let the time just slip away. Year-round sunshine and the option to visit the main resort area of Playa del Ingles on the south coast or the quieter Veguetta make Las Palmas the ideal destination, whatever your frame of mind. In Veguetta, the Christopher Columbus Museum provides an interesting diversion, while above the city the Bandama Crater reveals the island's volcanic past. With tranquil beaches of volcanic sand, you can combine a leisurely stroll to view the Portuguese-influenced architecture with a few hour's sunbathing to take it all in.

Day 8 - Santa Cruz De Tenerife, Tenerife

Day 9 - Playa Blanca, Lanzarote

Day 10 - La Palma

Arrive: Thu 30 December 2021 at 07:00 / Depart: Thu 30 December 2021

Forget its size. For a small island, La Palma boasts lots to do and more than its share of sights to see, including the largest volcanic crater in the world. Peaceful and tranquil, dozens of traditional old wooden houses with balustraded balconies lining the streets, Santa Cruz de la Palma is a typical Canarian town. All of which makes it the perfect place to stroll and relax. Look out in particular for the asone republica of Columbus' ship, the Santa Maria, opposite the seafront, and the beautiful Basilica of Our Lady of the Snows. And if there's time, take a trip to La Caldera. 9km wide and 28km around its edge, it will change your view of volcanoes because the vast crater is now filled with fragrant Canary pines.

Day 11 - Funchal

Arrive: Fri 31 December 2021

Madeira is more than sweet wine. It's an excuse to enjoy fine beaches, explore beautiful gardens and discover why Funchal is called the Pearl of the Ocean. Whether you want to enjoy a relaxing stroll along the promenade, visit the traditional and colourful flower market in the centre of Funchal, or taste the lovely wine that takes the island's name, Madeira has it all and more. Rising from the sea to the mountainside, the capital, Funchal, is a gardener's paradise with Birds of Paradise flowers, banana plantations, farms and vineyards everywhere. If you go shopping, don't miss the Se, the famous 16th century cathedral. If you have time visit Camacha, east of Funchal, known as the centre of Madeira's willow craft, and the hillside town of Monte which you can reach via a breathtaking cable car ride.
