Ponta Delgada, Azores Port Reviews

Walkable city. Went out on my own. Once again the excursion I wanted was sold out prior to sailing.

Shore excursion, in spite of rain, was well done and very informative.

Best part of the trip!

No. The ship was docked right in the center of Ponta Del Gada. Walking to the gardens, fort and famous churches was so interesting. The fort really was a surprise and full of history. The multiple church architectures were beautiful.

A cute city but not much to see. We wanted to take a tour but the ship was late arriving and there was only 2 hours of daylight left for a 3-1/2 hour tour. The day was foggy also.

We stopped on a Sunday and most shops closed. Wished we would have done an excursion as the reviews from others and what we could see would say we missed a great stop.

Did a full island tour - Beautiful

Very pleasant small city.

Roamed the area

The only reason Ponta Delgado did not get 5 stars... we were in port on Sunday and not much was open. There was not a lot to do because of this. But it was a beautiful place and our tour guide was great... except that he kind of left us on our own to get back to the ship. He did not give us a specific place to meet to catch the tour bus back to the ship... just told us "down the street a bit". We ended up walking back to the ship (which was not that far and was not a hardship) but he should have been more specific about meeting the bus...
