Creator's Key Takeaways
Portugal is one of our favorite countries. We've been to almost 40 countries now and Portugal is one of our top two or three countries, if not our top country.
This might be one of those ports, one of those places where you do want to spend a few days rather than a few hours.
I love it here. I don't know if it's just being back into Portugal or whatever. I just love the feeling, the vibe.
We've never experienced that before. We've always been able to use our cards pretty much everywhere.

We returned to Ponta Delgada on a cruise to see if this beautiful port stop is as good as we remembered. When you only have one day in the Azores, you need to make it count - so is wandering the town of Ponta Delgada the best use of your limited time? In this video, we’re taking you off the ship and into the capital city of São Miguel. Since this was our second time visiting, we skipped the expensive shore excursions to show you exactly what you can see, eat, and do on your own, right near the cruise terminal.
