We are US passport holders and will be flying in a week before the cruise to bcn, Are there any visa requirements for this cruise and the ports. At one time I thought Canada had a visa or visa exemption requirement, but that may not be needed for cruise passengers. There are no visa requirements for any of the ports we’re going to. Just your USA passport is required. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruiser Art Posted April 16, 2023 #210 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Good Afternoon! My wife and I are going on this wonderful Venezia cruise and are finishing up our plans for our port days. I have reserved a tour in Ponta Delgada with Pure Azores. It is a Sao Miguel West Van Tour and here is a link to the tour and a description: https://pureazores.com/en/sao-miguel-west-van-tour/ I have been in touch with them and the tour usually begins at 9am; however, if 6 more people sign up for this tour with them, they will adjust a van to cooperate with our ship's time in port. The van holds 8 people and my wife and I are the first two. You contact them directly and pay; in the event that there are not 8 people by 1 week before we arrive on the ship, they will cancel the tour and refund all money. I am hoping there are 6 other folks on this board who'd like to join in as this seems like a great tour. We did a similar one several years ago on a stop in Pont Delgada and thoroughly enjoyed it. We have toured the east side and I know many like to visit Furnace, etc. but we especially enjoyed the western part of Sao Miguel ourselves.

Cruiser Art Posted April 16, 2023 #215 Share Posted April 16, 2023 JC, you will need to contact Pure Azores and reserve your spots with them. I will cross my fingers that you can join us on this excursion. The fellow at Pure Azores is Filipe and he is very nice. You book online (make sure you put in Sunday, June 4 as the tour date) and he will email you the confirmation. Be sure to mention to him that you are onboard the Carnival Venezia so he knows to put you in the van with us from the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gortfamily Posted April 18, 2023 #222 Share Posted April 18, 2023 The tour in Ponta Delgada sounds like a lot of fun. Do you know the time and length of the tour? We are looking at different options for the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Excursion1 Posted April 18, 2023 #223 Share Posted April 18, 2023 It appears there are now 4 of us going. Would love to get another 4 to fill the van. Price seems to be quite good for the length (7-8 hours) and places visited. Total $75 per person. JC Tyler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser Art Posted April 19, 2023 #224 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Yes, JC is correct. My wife and I are signed up for this tour as are he and his wife. The Pure Azores guy said that while the normal tour time is 9am departure, if we have a van of 8 from the cruise ship he will adjust the tour to our ship's arrival and departure. You will need to go to their website and sign up with him and that website is https://pureazores.com/en/ . Our tour is called Sao Miguel West Van Tour with Lunch. You pay them on their website and if we get a van of 8 (there are 4 of us signed up already) then the tour will go; if not, he will cancel and refund all monies a week before we arrive there. My wife and I did a similar tour on our last trip to Ponta Delgada and liked the West End very much. Hoping we get another gorgeous weather day there. Really hope this works out for you to join us so we make this trip a go! Here is a description from the website: Full description Explore the highlights of the western half of São Miguel island on this guided tour by van. Discover the famous crater lakes of Sete Cidades and Lagoa do Fogo, picturesque waterfalls, amazing cliffs, and stunning rock formations around the coast of the island. Start with a visit to Ribeira Grande, one of the most picturesque towns of the Azores, followed by a surprising view of some amazingly beautiful cliffs on the North coast. Then travel to the inner areas of the island to see the gorgeous waterfall of Salto do Cabrito, surrounded by wild vegetation. Drive to the top of Fogo Volcano to enjoy views of the most pristine and magical of the crater lakes of São Miguel. From the top of the mountain, enjoy the stunning views over a large portion of the island. After a tasty meal to restore your energy levels, head to Sete Cidades, to understand why this is considered by the postcard of the Azores. Enjoy views from two completely different perspectives over the famous twin lakes. End the day in Mosteiros, on the western coast of the island, where the lava rocks have formed enchanting small islets and natural pools. See less Includes Hotel pickup and drop-off from Ponta Delgada, Ribeira Grande or Lagoa town Lunch of traditional Azorean food One alcoholic drink of your choice (wine, beer, etc.) Dessert Coffee Not suitable for Wheelchair users Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
