PORTUGAL · AZORES ISLAND TOURS
5 tours
This is the short version of a very long list: 5 Azores Island Tours worth the money, each with its price, its rating and the one detail that decides it.
A 3-hour Azores RIB whale watching tour from Vila Franca do Campo with biologist-led spotting, fast runs, and volcanic islet views.
“It was so nice!! We saw a blue whale, another whale and dolphins. Our guide was so friendly and helped us as we got seasick.”
3-hour RIB cruise from Vila Franca do Campo with a marine biologist, searching for sperm whales, dolphins, and sea turtles in the Azores.
“Exceeded expectations - we saw 3 adult sperm whales with 1 calf, all of them fluked! Then we proceeded and spotted a massive pod of dolphins jumping about for a long time! We followed them around for a long enough time and thoroughly enjoyed it! The speed ride in thr boat itself was super fun! Would highly recommend!”
Half-day whale watching from the Azores with skippers, biologists, and lookouts, safe distances, and strong odds of sightings.
“I wasn’t expecting the speedboat however it was really fun. We were little disappointed at the beginning seeing just dolphins however at the end we all were lucky to see whales :)!!! As per the guide it was first time this year! The whole crew was just amazing. I really do recommend this one.”
A 3.5-hour small-group walking food tour in Ponta Delgada, with market stops and multiple tastings of Azorean specialties.
“There is some walking involved but very manageable. The restaurants were all very good and many were sit down family style. Nadia gave us a history lesson on the food and history of the islands. We left very satisfied and ate at places that I wouldn't necessary have known to even try.”
Whale and dolphin spotting from Ponta Delgada on an open boat with marine experts. Pick a speedboat or catamaran for 2 to 3 hours.
“Excellent tour with good information. A fun morning! They prepare you well for the trip and make sure you will be warm and comfortable.”
