Have you always dreamed of wining, dining and cooking your way through Europe? If so, Azores Getaways is helping make your dreams come true by launching its first culinary adventure in the Azores Islands, just miles off the coast of Portugal.



In a nine-day journey throughout the chain of volcanic Azores islands, you will visit São Miguel, Faial, São Jorge and Pico. Here you’ll get the opportunity to discover the long-observed practice of cooking geothermally in the hot springs of São Miguel, learn the labyrinth of lava rocks in Pico and engage in the rich and vibrant culture of each island in between.
Inclusive of round-trip airfare from Boston’s Logan International Airport, island connections and ground transportation, hotel accommodations, and guided tours, Azores Getaways’ Wining, Dining & Cooking package is available for $1,849/person. Apart from the cliff diving and beautiful views of sandy white beaches, the inclusive round-trip also includes a Tripix Wine Tour on Pico Island, dinner with the founder of the world famous Genuino Restaurant, a visit to the only tea plantations in Europe and much more.
If you’re interested in a landscape where the land outnumbers the residents and where you can get a taste for the Azorean culinary culture, the Azores Getaway culinary package might be exactly what you’re looking for. Visit azoresgetaways.com to learn more about their packages and experience for yourself the food-focused culinary scene of the Azores.
