Nespoutaná příroda, divoké vodopády, sopečné laguny a vavřínové lesy – objevte Madeiru a Azory, zelené perly Atlantiku Madeira a Azory – tato dvě sopečná souostroví v Atlantském oceánu, vzdálená téměř tisíc kilometrů od sebe, byla pro mořeplavce v éře zámořských objevů vytouženým cílem. Obě destinace jsou sice autonomním územím Portugalska, ale díky svému umístění daleko od pevniny se vyznačují specifickými vlastnostmi. Madeira překypuje rajskou hojností květin i ovoce, jež tvoří pestrobarevné pozadí pro rozmanité festivaly a tradice. Výrazné kráterové laguny a bohatý podmořský život na Azorských ostrovech zase potěší dobrodruhy a milovníky přírody. Tento průvodce Rough Guide se zaměřuje hlavně na populárnější Madeiru, i tak vám ovšem představí to nejlepší z obou lokalit. Autorka průvodce Emma Greggová všechny ostrovy důkladně procestovala a ráda se s vámi podělí o své tipy, nejoblíbenější zajímavosti, skryté poklady a mimořádné zážitky.
