The Azores in a camper-van: everything you need to know

18 Mar 2019

As we went down that tiny road with a 180° corner, none of us were talking. We both knew we would be facing that corner and its 10% incline again the next morning. Travelling with a camper van on a small island is not something for the faint-hearted. Here, I give you the lowdown about what we loved and didn't love about renting a camper van on São Miguel island, Azores.

  3. Hi! Thanks for this article. It made me wanna rent a caravan in Azores too (we never drove one, but were dreaming of it for some time now). We'd like to go there in October with our 3yo daughter. If you have any other tips for us, they are more than welcome :)

  4. Thank you for great information! I am thinking of renting a camper, it sounds like a great idea. My only concearn is the price. Did you pay for the insurance or not? Because the price differs a lot. 🤔

    1. We did. We often do. But, as for everything, it all depends on what other insurance you have.
