    This is NOT a group tour, but a package of guided day trips. If you are looking for a group experience, you'll be disappointed. The site is entirely misleading when it depicts it as a group tour (join a group and forge lifelong frienships) and a full guided tour (an experienced guide will be with you for the entire tour)

    The individual activities were quite good however considering I signed up for an active trip there was very little activity, mostly sight seeing and the activities were very placid which was disappointing. They never begin on time either you just wait around for 40 mins until they decide to start. Secondly, this is not a tour - they just book you into day trips and book your accommodation..no guide or group. Thirdly, the communication from this company is awful. You will need to do a lot of independent research to even know what gear you need each day or what you are doing. My transfer from the airport did not arrive despite the company having my flight details and have got radio silence regarding a refund for this. I also apparently had a lunch included but didn't get told this or where or what time but they had the audacity to ring and say where are you. Guests need to be mind readers to get their meals apparnetly. All in all this island is magnificent but you can book all of this independently without paying their fees.

  • H

    Henry

    Asked on March 3rd, 2025

    I'd like to book the Sao Miguel active tour - departure 13 April. I'm travelling alone from Milan. Is it possible to share a room with another lady?

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    • Futurismo Azores AdventuresOperatorWritten March 2025

      Regarding your question, we do not have more requests for this date. Usually, the single travelers do not want to share the room.

    • H

      Henry

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      Do you mean you don't have requests to share a room from other women participants? Can I book a single room and change my reservation in case someone wants to share a double? Is the tour confirmed? Can you please indicate the average age of participants? I'm 60.

    • Futurismo Azores AdventuresOperatorWritten March 2025

      Typically, guests only share their rooms with their family members and not with other guests. If we do not have additional participants for this program, would you still like to proceed with the booking? We cannot guarantee that there will be others in the same hotel willing to share a room. We will check availability with the hotel and get back to you.
