Cheryl H, Azores - 2022

Visiting the Azores was paradise! Beautiful scenery,great food (especially the milk, cheese, ice cream,yogurt and butter), tea factory and thermal spas...it was very relaxing and you did not feel rushed. The people are friendly and laid-back. I thought the shopping was good as prices were very reasonable in San Miguel. I did all of my Christmas shopping. We felt safe walking around and crime is very low as well.

E. Smith, Azores - 2017

We had a wonderful trip. Both islands were beautiful. The Hungry Whales foodie tour was interesting, fun, and challenged us to try some foods that we probably would not have tried. The guides for this tour were great! All our guides were great - they knew so much and were fun to spend a day with. We did a whale watching tour on Terceira -- didn't see any whales but did see a lot of dolphins close up.

Thanks for planning a great trip for us to celebrate our 40th anniversary!
