Rare Saint Greg Posted June 4, 2023 Author #1776 Share Posted June 4, 2023 when you come through the doors all of the tour guides are lined up to pick people up. Many of them are holding up signs with a list of names of the people they’re picking up. I requested my name not be on a sign, so mine has the company name azoean tours. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted June 4, 2023 Author #1777 Share Posted June 4, 2023 (edited) I had a hard time finding a tour company that would allow me to book 1 person. Also a lot of the tour hours at other places didn’t seem to match up with ship hours. I didn’t find this company on a tour search I actually found it here on a CC thread. It’s a small group. It was just me and a couple. The four of us went in a Mercedes. Oh this is the company address. I did tour #7. https://www.azoreantours.com Edited June 4, 2023 by Saint Greg 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted June 4, 2023 Author #1781 Share Posted June 4, 2023 This is their smallest beach. Like we saw in St. Kitts they have darker sand because of the volcanos. This is kind of their medium sized beach. We’ll see the biggest beach at the end. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
