The Douro Rambler was one of the most picturesque I have completed for a while. Who could imagine that vineyards could photograph so well! All of the accommodation was very upmarket in every way and the walks were perfect.

From Lisbon to South

I would rate it rather Good, not very good. Our group was very small - 5 people plus driver/guide. Hotels were average, all very basic, 3 stars. Think, 4GTS should have done better for the price we paid. My husband and I visited Lisbon two years ago, so good for us, that time we covered all major sites.Time in Lisbon could be planned better. For example, we spent lots of time driving to other part of city for lunch (included) and when others got to Sintra, it was too late to visit a palace! Boat trip to private beach with lunch (included) - when at least 50+ people from two boats get on a tiny beach it become very crowded and lunch was not good. I would prefer to do just a boat trip which was amazing and cost less.

Sunshine, rain and an earthquake in the Azores

The weather wasn't very kind to us but we did get out walking on all the days. Bruno our guide was very good. His knowledge of the islands was excellent and he made every effort to tailor the walks to the group. He also adapted the program when we were unable to visit Sao Jorge because of the earthquake. Loved the botanical gardens and Lagoa do Fogo (although it was difficult to sit by the lake for very long because of the biting wind). I found the islands we visited very interesting. I didn't go whale watching in Horta, instead went to the whaling museum (Porto Pim Whaling) and did the circular walk on the hill (Monte da Guia) behind it. Both were excellent alternatives. The food was very good and the hotels and various restaurants. The accommodation in Ponta Delgada was very good and an excellent location.
