Description

Description

Visit the three islands with the most to offer and stay in 4 star hotels along the way. Sao Miguel, offering the largest geographic diversity and some of the most striking scenery, is perhaps the most attractive island in the archipelago. Faial, formerly a crucial staging port for ships on transatlantic routes between Europe and the Americas, is now a popular stop for modern yachtsmen and sailors. Pico, with its grand volcanic cone (the tallest mountain in Portugal), is the perfect destination for a day of exploration offering unique landscapes and quaint villages. Upon final payment for this package, Azores.com will provide you with a 24 hour assistance local phone number and a PDF manual with a suggested itinerary of the main areas of interest.
