This is a short but packed easy walking trip guided by the brilliant knowledgeable and fun Bruno.
From the lush heights overlooking lakes and craters to swimming in natural thermal pools to whale watching this trip has it all. Bruno’s enthusiasm for his country and love of his job meant he was totally engaged with the group. He probably would have crammed more into the itinerary if time had allowed.
The islands of the Azores are stunning and have to be walked to be fully appreciated .
Most Inspirational Moment
There were many wonderful views and no one that absolutely stands out.
Laughing with Bruno and the group is a great tonic
Thoughts on Group Leader
Bruno as already mentioned could not have been more interesting , engaging and fun. as a group leader He excelled in holding the group dynamics so that we had fun together but also walked at a pace which suited all.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Be prepared for a full on trip with little spare time or stops. That said, the walking though some longer but gentle uphill was paced well. The long ( 2 hours) down hill is challenging on the knees so would advise poles and decent rough terrain footwear.
Take an additional small (folding variety backpack) to leave on the coach for swim wear.
If prone to travel sickness take medication and be prepared to take it 2 hours before the late evening ferry trip ( 2 hour choppy trip)
I’ve been to Portugal before, and was looking forward to experiencing another aspect of this country. This was my first trip with Exodus, and it was very impressive, start to finish. The daily outings, meals together, hotel choices, etc. were A+. Each island was unique and physically beautiful. The walks took us to places off the beaten path, which was exactly why I selected this trip.
Most Inspirational Moment
It is hard to pick one moment - overall seeing how people have made these volcanic islands into beautiful locations is what impressed me.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Bruno was amazing! His knowledge and enthusiasm were infectious, and definitely made the trip above average.
Advice for Potential Travellers
The level of this trip was more difficult than I expected - it was trekking than walking. I'm a good walker, so distance wasn't an issue, but the terrain was often steep .
One suggestion for the packing list: a towel is needed for the swimming opportunities.
