What are people saying about Azores

Yoojin_K, Jul 2026

We had a fantastic time...

We had a fantastic time thanks to our amazing guide Marcio! The views today were spectacular. We were very lucky with weather that allowed us to see all the beautiful sites. We appreciated how patient and humorous Marcio was with our 7 year child as well. Thank you for a terrific introduction to the west side of Sao Miguel!

Off the Beaten Track Half Day Sete Cidades Jeep Tour

Cassie_M, Jul 2026

7 Happy Travelers

Absolutely amazing experience viewing Caldeira das Sete Cidades! Although there were dozens of people hiking, there’s no way you could take in all the sights in this area unless you’re doing it by vehicle. The Land Rover was very comfortable and felt safe for the 7 guests. Daniel, the tour guide was knowledgeable about the entire island and asked us what we wanted to see and customized a bit of the drive for us. This experience is well worth it!

Canyoning Experience - half day

Sonya_Y, Jul 2026

Amazing and exhilarating. Indiana Jones tour!

Very active excursion. Hiking and canyoning. Jumping into the rivers and streams from varying heights. Super fun but also not for anyone with significant fear of heights or water. The guides are amazing. We had Tomas and Alfredo. They were the sweetest and funniest. Always made us feel safe and talked me personally off the ledge quite literally when I was panicking about jumping. This particular tour was not as challenging as it can be so if you want harder features then research some more.

Quad Biking - Sete Cidades from North Coast (Half Day)

LaurenLenihan_L, Jul 2026

Fantastic tour!

Such a great experience! We each got our own quads, and the tour covered so much ground. The pace was comfortable, the staff was wonderful, and the views—from high up on the mountain tops down through the small towns—were amazing. Definitely worth the money!

Azores Whale Watching Tour – Ponta Delgada

Helen_I, Jul 2026

Dolphin watching

The company were great, personnel knowledgeable and friendly. We had a good time and got to see two different types of dolphin. I would say for anyone who wants to see whales, make sure you do a zodiac boat and not a catamaran. We were told there were whales sighted but we saw no whales, while I understand it’s not guaranteed, there were no zodiac boats anywhere in sight where we saw the dolphins, so I assumed they were off viewing the whales while the larger vessels did the dolphins. It was still a great experience and the dolphins were beautiful but I think expectations could be managed more openly.

Small-Group Ponta Delgada Food Tour in Azores

Nancy_O, Jul 2026

Food Tour

This was a wonderful food tour. Our guide, Marcos, displayed a great deal of attention to guests food preferences and allergies. He also shared interesting history facts about the island and culture. I especially enjoyed the variety of food that we enjoyed at multiple stops. Overall, the tour was enjoyable and very well organized.

Essential San Miguel: 2 Day-Tour of Natural Wonders & Top Spots

Julian_S, Jul 2026

Covers sao Miguel greatest hits much better than any one day tour

Okay. If you are looking at all in one tours this is probably the better option. There are one day tours of the island but you miss a lot doing it in one day. You really need two days to do it all which this tour does....basically all the greatest hits of the east and the west. Be aware that they sometimes change the order of the sites and sometimes flip around day 1 and day 2. If you want to see absolutely everything do this tour plus the "hidden gems" tour and maybe a boat tour as well (we did). A note about the lunches: there are other lunch places around the day of the volcanic lunch cozida al furnas but not many options on the second day. The buffet lunch is okay. But the volcanic lunch was a disappointment (sadly) as the food was nice but bland no seasoning no spice little flavor. My Azorean friends say the local versions are spicy so maybe they make it bland for the tourists. Ask for spice and seasonings for yours. Apart from the food a great tour it has everything. But don't forget the botanical gardens and thermal baths cost an extra 17 euros. And they want 3 euro admission for the volcanic park where they cook the food. But the botanical garden in Ponta Delgado is just as nice and it is free so go there and skip this unless you specifically want the thermal pools part. As I said a great tour and it would be basically impossible to rent a car and do all that driving yourself on very narrow winding and steep roads. Bom Dia!

Jeep Tour Full Day Sete Cidades & Lagoa do Fogo with lunch and drinks included.

Debra_C, Jul 2026

An Unforgettable Day Exploring São Miguel!

Our Full-Day Jeep Tour of Sete Cidades and Lagoa do Fogo was one of the highlights of our trip to the Azores! The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, but what made the experience truly exceptional was our tour guide, Jose. Jose was the perfect representative for both the tour company and the island of São Miguel. His knowledge of the island’s history, culture, geology, and natural beauty was incredible, and he shared it in a way that was engaging and easy to understand. It was clear how deeply he cares about preserving this amazing place for future generations, and his passion for conservation added so much meaning to the tour. Throughout the day, Jose made sure everyone was comfortable, answered every question with enthusiasm, and took us to spectacular viewpoints that we never would have found on our own. His pride in the island was contagious, and by the end of the tour we had an even greater appreciation for the people, landscapes, and efforts to protect this special destination. If you’re visiting São Miguel, don’t hesitate to book this tour—and if you’re lucky enough to have Jose as your guide, you’re in for an unforgettable experience. Five stars all the way!

ILAN_H, Jun 2026

The absolute best tour in Ponta Delgada! Don't miss Thomas and his Tuk-Tuk

Tomas holds the only official Tuk-Tuk license on the entire islandd. Thomas is a great guide with a lot of knowledge about the island history, its past, and its present-day life, and shares it all in the most engaging way. He is incredibly welcoming, friendly, and with positive energy, highly recommended!

Side by Side Tour - Sete Cidades from North Coast (Half Day)

Julie_M, Jun 2026

Fun experience

The buggy ride was really fun and we ended up seeing several amazing view points even though we couldn’t see the blue and green lakes from the viewpoints as there was too much fog. We did get to ride around them on a trail and it was beautiful. The guide was really good and patient with the group. It was an amazing experience.

Furnas Volcano & Tea Plantation With Traditional Lunch, East Tour

Nancy_T, May 2026

Highly recommend this tour!

Terrific mix of activities from thermal baths, traditional cooking and eating, to beautiful sites. Our guide, Jose Miguel, is a walking encyclopedia with deep knowledge of Portugal and the Azores, specifically. He delights in teaching. He also knows how to navigate around the fog to optimize the experience. A wonderful tour. Highly recommend.
