What are people saying about Azores

Janice_H, Aug 2026

A truly wonderful...

A truly wonderful experience with two very full days of seeing incredible sights. Highly recommend, especially if you're not driving around yourself in Sao Miguel. Our guides were awesome and it was a comfortable ride with beautiful scenery everywhere. Obrigada!

Adventure in the Furnas, with volcanoes, lagoons and tea plantations

kieron_g, Aug 2026

A great 3 hours visiting...

A great 3 hours visiting two caves, looking at the volcanic flow formed. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. You do need to be aware the ground is very uneven, the ceilings can be very low and there are steps! Having said that it was amazing to see the caverns and formations. Very beautiful 😍

Canyoning Experience - half day

Marko_D, Aug 2026

Amazing experience!

Amazing experience, not the faint of heart. I includes a zip line, natural water slide, cliff scaling and free fall jumping, along with extreme hikes through the bush to get to each. Guides Alberto and Tomas were super knowledgeable, experienced and friendly. Would highly recommend and would do again.

Small-Group Ponta Delgada Food Tour in Azores

aurorita_p, Aug 2026

Great way to start our vacation

Raphael was a great tour guide - very friendly and informative. We learned some history about the area as well as the local food and drinks. He was also a good source of information about things to do on the rest of our trip. The pace of the tour was good. We were able to sample many types of food, including breakfast, tea, fruit, a delicious lunch, and dessert. I highly recommend! My family (husband, 18 yr old son, 21 yr old daughter) and I all enjoyed ourselves.

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

aurorita_p, Aug 2026

Great way to see several views in the same excursion

My family (husband, 18 yr old son and 21 yr old daughter) all enjoyed ourselves. Instead of one 4-person UTV, we decided to get two 2-person UTVs so both my husband and I could have the opportunity to drive (and potentially the kids if they chose to, which they did not). We went on a mostly sunny day and the views were outstanding. This was our first trip to the Azores so we had no idea what was the best way to access views, and this experience allowed us to see several views we would have had to hike up to see, and gave us ideas about future excursions on our own. While we all enjoyed ourselves, this excursion may not be for everyone. The UTVs were very loud and I had to almost yell to talk to my daughter next to me, but they do provide headphones to help cut the noise of the engine down. We all drove in a line (2 person ATVs in the front, 2 person UTVs in the middle and then 4 person ATVs), so the route is very specific and there is no opportunity to deviate. We drove on paved major roads about half the time, paved back roads about 20% of the time and dirt roads about 30% of the time. I absolutely have no confidence to drive the rental car whenever we travel to Europe, but I enjoyed myself driving the UTV because for the most part we were in a line and I just followed the person in front of me. When we got to stop signs, my daughter looked right while i looked left if we were on a blind corner. My family plays a lot of Mario Kart and it felt a bit like I was driving one in real life. I am happy we chose the 2 person UTV over the 2 person ATV because we had some shade as opposed to full sun the whole time. Overall I recommend this excursion if you are new to the island and want to see 5 different views in a relatively short amount of time.

São Miguel West Highlights: Sete Cidades, Lagoa do Fogo & Lunch

Hiba, Aug 2026

Amazing experience, super well organized

Incredible experience, so glad i booked this. The tour was amazing, our guide, Max, was so knowledgeable throughout the day, giving us insights into the island, the fauna and flora, and just about anything else we asked. I loved that the pace was chill, no rushing, giving us time to really be present and each of the locations (and there was a lot!). Comfortable little van, well air-conditioned, flexible to show us different locations if the fog was too much in some of the stops on our itinerary... really worth every penny. Loved it, and thank you again Max for such a fun day!

Buggy Off-Road Excursion to Sete Cidades - HD (shared buggy)

Candice_G, Aug 2026

Great experience - super fun.

Such a great experience and tour. First, it was a full 4 hour tour. No corners cut. We traveled paved roads, dirt roads and paths allowing us to see many aspects of the west side of Sao Miguel. We briefly stopped for snacks and restroom in a lovely town. . Our guide, friendly and gregarious, made sure we were safe and comfortable; he also offered helpful commentary/insight at various stops throughout the trip. He always took us to "just the right spot" at each stop, allowing for great vistas and outlooks. He took great pics of our family, for which we are grateful. Our "buggy" was clean and in great working order. If (when?!) we return to Sao Miguel, we will definitely do this tour again with this company! Super fun. Recommend highly. Tips: bring face protection (we wore bandanas / buffs) and sunglasses (or more) for eyes. Sometimes, dust gets kicked up if traversing dry roads. Also, wear / bring layers - can get a bit colder in some spots as cross island microclimates.

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

Joseph_C, Jul 2026

Great Experience

It seems like a family owned business which was really nice! The tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. He made sure to check in with everyone a few times throughout just to make sure everyone was good and didn’t have questions. We had been to a few different viewpoints of Sete Cidades before doing this, but i think it’s still worth it! It’s a different experience than just driving and pulling over. Also, you get to explore different areas/top of viewpoints that would only be reachable by walking /hiking etc.

Off the Beaten Track Half Day Sete Cidades Jeep Tour

Anna_B, Jul 2026

The best experience!

The tour with Daniel was incredible. We went on our 2nd day after arriving and it was an amazing morning filled with unbelievable views and stories from our guide, Daniel. He filled us in on the history of each spot we stopped at and had so many fun facts along the way. We felt like it was the best way to start the trip, learning a lot and seeing some of the most incredible views on the island. Would definitely recommend!

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!

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.
