Portugal Family Travel Review: Lisbon, Sao Miguel, Sao Jorge, Faial, 12-Day Trip

Our travel agent made this an extraordinary, unforgettable, and wonderful trip for our family! The events and tours she arranged were exactly what we were looking for. The tour and transportation companies she contracted were on time, flexible, knowledgeable, and provided outstanding value for the cost.

Our agent provided an incredible, complete package at a cost much less than competitors. We highly recommend our agent and her team to anyone looking for a memorable trip to Lisbon and/or the Azores.

-Glen

Five Stars!

Loved all the service and tour guides.

Most enjoyable was the Azores. Doing the trip again I would focus more time on the Azores. Lisbon is nice but a whole different world. Thanks for a great trip.

-Tony

5 Stars.

The guides made this trip most enjoyable. They shared their knowledge willingly and always with a smile.

The only thing I would do differently is make the trip longer.

-Mary

My star rating is 5. We had a wonderful trip without a concern over logistics thanks to this travel company. With 9 of us, it was a challenge to get the itinerary we all wanted but our agent did a great job. I was also impressed by the low cost, given all that we did, and the quality of the hotels and tours. I will absolutely recommend and in fact, plan to write a review on TripAdvisor.

The highlight was seeing my grandmother’s house in Santa Luzia on our free day in Pico. I enjoyed the Azores more than the mainland. Every one of our tour guides was excellent. I especially liked the coffee plantation in Sao Jorge, the volcano museum on Faial, and the whaling museum on Pico. Ponta Delgado was a great place to stay. I didn’t much like Madalena though with two ferry trips on the itinerary it was the best option.

What I would change, in retrospect, is less time in Lisbon, perhaps substituting a fifth island. The crowds were a problem in Lisbon and we found it a little frustrating to be pressed for time at each destination. Maybe offer Sintra or Cascais but not both, and pick two of the Batalha/Nazare/Obidos options. It’s a shame to not see it all, but also a shame to have only 45 minutes in a place like Nazare.-Susan

Luxury Portugal Trip Review: Azores Islands, Canoeing, Views, Exploration & Local Cuisine
I cannot say enough about how amazing our trip was to The Azores. The islands are magical and it feels as if we barely scratched the surface of the overall beauty of the islands, the culture and the food. It was the type of trip that leaves you craving for more and it just wraps you up. There were moments in looking at the Hydrangeas and then gazing at the ocean and the volcanoes that you completely forgot about any worries. To enhance the experience even more, we were blessed to have the guides that showed us around the three islands we toured (Pico, Faial and Sao Miguel). Each island had its own character and feel. Just thinking about the trip makes me want to go back, learn Portuguese and move our families there. Which all leads to the incredible, world class and phenomenal service that this travel company provided. From the first phone call with our travel planner, he fully understood what my wife and I would enjoy and was able to enhance what I had already thought was an exceptional trip. Our Sao Miguel guide was kind enough to give us a brief tour during a layover. We arrived in Pico and our guide was an absolute joy. She drove us to so many beautiful places and set the tone. So many wonderful little places on the newest island. Our guide in Faial was equally great as he took us to the caldera and gave us a brief glimpse of the hidden beauty in Faial. Then 4 days in Sao Miguel which honestly was not enough. Actually the 2 days in Pico and 1 day in Faial were not enough. Our guide did his best even on rainy days to make the best of the trip. We discovered so many little spots on the island that left us speechless. The canyoning, the views, the lakes, the ocean, the trees, the food, the personal service that our guide provided was above and beyond what my wife I expected.Thank you travel planner and this travel company for a trip that my wife and I truly cherish.

Travel Review: Portugal Couples Trip, Azores, Sao Miguel, Faial, Pico & Sao Jorge, Terceira, 2-Week Tour

My husband and I recently spent 2 weeks in the Azores in Portugal.  We had the pleasure of working with our travel specialist. She is in a class by herself! She is extremely knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with.  From beginning to end everything was planned perfectly.  What was especially nice is that she took the time to understand what we were looking for and then tailored a trip to our personal interests. We visited 5 islands- Sao Miguel, Faial, Pico & Sao Jorge and Terceira. Our travel specialist booked all the tours, hotels, flights and ferries between the islands. She even provided us with a mobile hotspot should we need to reach her for any reason. We truly felt that all our personal needs were attended to. For anyone thinking of doing this on their own, I would say “forget it!” Working with a travel agent within the country truly made the difference.  From beginning to end, this was a trip of a lifetime! I would highly recommend our travel specialist and would certainly call upon her for our next trip.

Portugal Trip Review: Luxury 2-Week Tour of Madeira, Porto, Lisbon
Dev designed a Portugal trip for us that started in Madeira for 5 nights, then onto Porto and surrounding for 4 nights (including a full day rip into the Douro Valley), down the coast to an eco-resort on the beach near Santa Cruz for 2 nights, and finally 3 nights in Lisbon.We always choose a very active itinerary and this was no exception, with gastronomical, historical, and cultural tours. We also love great local restaurants as much as possible. We quickly learned to trust Dev's recommendations for all of our planned and unplanned free days.We found everything about Portugal remarkable, from the people to the culture to the history to the food (and wine). The hotels Dev picked for us were all outstanding and unique, only adding to the experience. One of the things we enjoyed most about the approach Dev took to planning each day was that the days were full but not jammed. There was always space for us to wander the streets of wherever we were, to just be in the place and experience it. For us, getting our steps in to earn our next amazing meal felt great!Another comment: We'd never even heard of Madeira before we started working with Dev. She insisted experience it, and she was exactly correct in doing so. We could go on and on. Bottom line: Dev's approach has gotten us quite convinced that we may never plan our own vacation ever again.
