- ADerek Gott· June 22nd, 2013I liked the Azores. The scenery is really good so is the food and wine. However although the the Hotel in Ilha Do Pico is good and the staff are friendly I would rate the facilities as 2 star not 4 star as claimed in the Exodus brochure. What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?Getting to the summit of Pico on the only fine day.What did you think of your group leader?Both leaders were efficient and friendly.Do you have any advice for potential travellers?Be prepared for changeable weather!Is there anything else you would like to add?There is a case for reorganising the itinerary on the last 2 days on Sao Miguel. Perhaps the meal cooked in hot vents could be on the evening of Day 6 and the evening meal on Day 7 could be at Restaurante San Pedro. We had to get up at 0600 on Day 8 to catch the 0840 flight back to Gatwick only to find when we reached the Airport that it had been rescheduled to 1150. I sat next to someone on the plane who knew the previous evening. I think in future the Exodus leader should check with the Airport in advance.Show moreTrip date: June 2013

Asked on June 14th, 2024I am looking at the walking holiday in the Azores, but am wondering how many solo travellers go on these holidays please? Not looking for a date, just would prefer not to be the only single person in the group!
- Exodus Adventure TravelsOperator•Written June 2024
The group size is usually between 5 - 16 people. If you have any particular dates in mind, please let me know and I can check the demographics of the group for you.
- Exodus Adventure TravelsOperator•Written June 2024
At the moment, we have 2 passengers traveling together. One is between 50-60 years old, and the other is between 60-70 years old. Usually, the group size is between 5 -16 passengers, so we expect to receive more confirmations in the coming months.
