The Azores: A Trip of a Lifetime!
The Azores, a group of nine islands in the North Atlantic belonging to Portugal, are known for dramatic landscapes, hiking opportunities and a unique culture. From volcanic craters and hot springs to lush pastures and coastal villages, the islands offer breathtaking scenery and outdoor adventure. Once considered a hidden gem, the Azores became more accessible after flights expanded in 2015. This course chronicles the presenter’s journey through the islands, including hikes, whale watching and memorable travel experiences.
