G Adventures commented on this reviewThanks so much for your review, Jennifer! We are delighted to know you enjoyed your time hiking the Azores with us and look forward to more adventures in the future!Trip date: May 2025- CBcolin· July 2nd, 2024The itenary was too intensive. I felt the age range was incorrect . It certainly was not 12 - 90. You had to be very fit as some of the trails were very arduous. Unless you’re fit I wouldn’t recommend it for over 60’s. The tour guides were good and certainly by offering alternative options they made this holiday enjoyable .Show moreG Adventures commented on this reviewThank you for your review, Colin.

Arthur
Asked on September 4th, 2024I am in my seventies and I am concerned about keeping up with the group even though I am in reasonable shape. Can you give me more details on the length, terrain, difficulty level and time to do the various hikes and the ages of the participants. What would happen if I lag behind? Also, is the cost based on sharing a room? And what would it cost if we each wanted our own room?
- G AdventuresOperator•Written September 2024
The tour guide will ensure the whole group keep the same pace. The cost online is based on twin share - a single supplement would be an extra $569 per person.
