I booked an all-inclusive trip to Azores with WWE, which was hosted at Patio Lodge. Angelique is the BEST hostess, an absolute treasure at Patio. She ensured our activities were coordinated on time and accompanied our group on several lovely adventures around the island. The focus of the trip was horseback riding, and you will not find better scenery in the world to explore on horseback. Be honest about your riding ability, as the Lusitano horses are fast moving and the trail guides need an accurate gauge on rider ability before matching you with a horse and trail plan. Don't miss the caldeira hike around the rim of the volcano. Thanks to Angelique and the courteous staff at Patio, I've fallen in love with the island of Faial and hope to return someday.
