      Our tour guide was Daniel...

      Diana_H, Aug 2026
      Our tour guide was Daniel who was an excellent guide. He spoke perfect English. He was very personable and had a wealth of knowledge about Pico. We saw many parts of the island from the most ideal vantage points, providing us with the relevant history of each sight. We saw the grape vineyards, some being harvested, a very labor intensive process, all done by hand. Daniel also took us to a whaling museum that had original equipment used on the very site. I would highly recommend this tour and thank you, Daniel.

      Pico Island private experience

      Daniel was so professional and full of knowledge and the history of Pico. Visiting the whale factory. Seeing the vineyard and sampling what I consider to be the finest selection of Azorean wine actually made in Pico aged in caves was wonderful. The views were spectacular. This is the complete experience of Puco beginning to end. I loved it and can't wait to come back and tour with Daniel again next year.

      More Than a Tour: Exploring Pico with a True Local Talent

      Yin_L, May 2026
      I had an amazing private tour of Pico Island with Daniel and honestly could not have asked for a better guide. He is incredibly friendly, relaxed, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about his island and the Azores. You can tell immediately that he truly loves what he does, even though he is just starting out as a tour guide. Daniel is originally from Pico, which made the experience feel very authentic and personal. He shared so many interesting stories about the island’s history, volcanic landscape, geology, and the unique wine culture that makes Pico so special. His explanations about the volcanic terrain and how it shaped the wine region were especially fascinating. It never felt like a “standard tour,” but more like exploring the island with a very knowledgeable local friend. What also makes Daniel unique is that he is multi-talented. Besides guiding tours, he owns his own wine shop, works as a DJ, organizes events, and is a musician. That creative energy really comes through during the tour and gives it a very relaxed, genuine vibe. He was also very flexible and adapted the day to our interests and wishes, which we really appreciated. The entire experience felt easygoing, personal, and full of great conversations and beautiful places. If you are visiting Pico and want a tour that feels authentic, informative, and relaxed, we highly recommend Daniel. I’m sure he has a great future ahead of him as a guide. 🌋🍷🎶
