Top Ponta Delgada Private Sightseeing Tours

Thomas was fantastic helping us every step of the way, guiding us how to better approach the challenges. We thought that the trail was more appropriate for hiking than biking. The vegetation on both sides was high, so we couldn’t see much of the landscape.

Flavio was absolutely outstanding! He was professional, passionate, and incredibly knowledgeable, and I felt completely safe and comfortable throughout the entire tour. He went above and beyond to accommodate my schedule and ensure I made the most of the limited time I had during my layover. He personalized the experience around my needs and even recommended restaurants and other things to do while I waited for my flight. I was genuinely impressed by both the tour and Flavio’s exceptional service. My experience with him made me want to return and spend more time exploring the Azores. I highly recommend this tour! you will be in excellent hands!

We had the most incredible full-day tour with Sergio from Green Zone Tours, and it was honestly one of the highlights of our entire trip! Sergio was wonderful from start to finish — incredibly knowledgeable, funny, and so easygoing. He made everyone feel comfortable and completely at ease throughout the day. You could tell how much he genuinely loves the island and enjoys sharing it with visitors. We learned so much about the history, culture, landscape, and hidden gems of the Azores, and Sergio was able to answer every question we threw at him. His knowledge of the island was incredible! The Defender was beautiful 💚 Sergio took us to see some beautiful beaches and a few of his favourite local spots while we waited for the fog to burn off for the grand finale Lagoa do Fogo! And it was so worth the wait! When the fog finally cleared, the view from the top was absolutely STUNNING. 🌋😍 We also discovered Santa Bárbara Beach, which ended up being another favourite stop — and a place we probably never would have found without Sergio! What made the day so special was that it didn't feel like we were simply being taken from one tourist attraction to another. It felt like we were exploring the island with a local who genuinely wanted us to experience the best of São Miguel. I would highly recommend doing this tour at the beginning of your trip. Sergio is not only an amazing guide, but he can give you great ideas and recommendations for the rest of your stay. His local knowledge can point you in the right direction for beaches, places to visit, things to see, and experiences you might otherwise miss. What a fantastic day! Thank you, Sergio, for making our day so memorable. You were the perfect guide, and this was definitely the highlight of our trip! 💚🌋🌊 I would absolutely recommend Green Zone Tours and Sergio to anyone visiting the Azores!
