From our travel specialists
Build the Route Around Real Island Connections
Islands that look close on a map do not always connect conveniently on the dates you are traveling. Inter-island flights and ferry schedules vary by route and season, so a practical vacation starts with the available connections and then balances sightseeing time against transfer time.

Planning questions
Azores Vacation Package FAQs
How many Azores islands should I visit?
That depends on trip length and connection schedules. Fewer islands usually means a more relaxed vacation; longer trips can support multi-island routes without spending too much time in transit.
Are inter-island flights included?
Only where the package specifically lists them. Review the itinerary for each island connection and whether a transfer, flight or ferry is included.
Do I need a rental car?
It depends on travel style. Self-drive itineraries include or arrange cars as listed, while guided packages may rely on transfers and scheduled touring instead.
Can I add mainland Portugal?
Yes. Lisbon and other mainland destinations can be combined with an Azores stay, with flights, hotels and transportation coordinated as one longer vacation.
Can I add activities?
Often, subject to availability and the route. Whale watching, hiking, thermal experiences and additional guided sightseeing are common additions.
Can the package be adjusted for my dates?
Many packages can be adjusted, subject to flights, hotels, rental cars, guides and activities. The amount of flexibility depends on the specific itinerary.
