Terceira Island Highlights Tour - Azores

Caroline_P, Aug 2026

Seeing is believing

I chose this tour because of the consistently excellent reviews and beautiful photos, although I’ll admit I was a little skeptical and wondered if they might be too good to be true. After spending such a wonderful day with Emilia, I can happily say the experience lived up to—and even exceeded—our expectations. Emilia was an excellent driver, incredibly knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about Terceira. She shared so much with us about the island’s history, culture, traditions, and present-day life. Her genuine love and pride for her beautiful island made the experience even more special. The scenery throughout the day was absolutely breathtaking, and the lunch was delicious from beginning to end—a real highlight of the experience. I can confidently recommend this tour, especially as one of the first things you do when visiting Terceira. It’s a wonderful introduction to the island and gives you a true appreciation for everything that makes Terceira so special. Thank you, Emilia, for such a memorable day!

Kathryn_W, Jul 2026

He was full of...

He was full of information. We would have blundered through all of those attractions blind and missed out on soo much stuff had we tried to do that by ourselves. He was very friendly and answered every question we threw at him. This was a 10/10 experience. Favorite thing we've done in the Azores so far.

Cave Tour in Terceira

Bobbye_K, Jul 2026

Excellent Family Tour

This was a wonderful experience. We were picked up from the hotel by our guide Bernardo in a jeep. It was just me, my husband, and my 5 year old daughter. Bernardo was very personable and a wealth of information. We learned so much about the island, its history, and its culture. We never felt rushed and he was so good with our daughter. The caves are a must see if you are visiting the island. He also gave us several recommendations for restaurants and places to go with our daughter during our stay on the island. Strongly recommend booking!

A private tour is the ONLY way to see this beautiful island. The weather is unpredictable and we switched seeing the sights on the fly to be able to get the most out of the tour. Our guide, Antonio S. Is professional, informative, kind and best of all funny. In fact, he is a wealth of knowledge. Great curated tour!
