Madeira specialist back at Durham Tees Valley for Summer 2012
Madeira specialist back at Durham Tees Valley for Summer 2012
The largest independent specialist tour operator to the island of Madeira has announced that it will again be offering holidays from Durham Tees Valley Airport next summer.
Atlantic Holidays has decided to operate a flight to the island known as ‘Floating Garden of the Atlantic' after the success of its first operation this year and it will again be offering a wide choice of high quality accommodation.
The archipelago of Madeira is located about 350 miles from the northwest coast of Africa and 520 miles southwest of Portugal itself. It is of volcanic origin but unlike the other islands in the group which are barren, Madeira is lush and verdant, boasting an exceptionally temperate climate and rich agricultural resources.
The many historical monuments, squares and streets in the capital of Funchal and the enchanting gardens, picturesque villages, amazing landscapes, impressive volcanic caves, rugged coast lines and beautiful natural beaches make Madeira well worth a visit.
The flight from Durham Tees Valley will depart on Monday June 25th and holidaymakers will be able to choose from three, four and five-star hotels and apartments, including those operated by Atlantic Holidays' parent company Pestana Hotels and the world-renowned Reid's Palace.
Says Dino Toouli Sales & Marketing Manager at Atlantic Holidays said "We were delighted to add Durham Tees Valley Airport to our portfolio this year and the response demonstrated there is a demand from discerning holidaymakers in the North East for a destination which offers a superb combination of a sub-tropical climate, an abundance of natural beauty and a rich cultural heritage,."
Holidays can be booked with Atlantic Holidays on 01452 381 888, via their web site at atlanticholidays.net/mme or through a local travel agent.
