We had a wonderful time...

Kadee_M, Apr 2026
We had a wonderful time with Luis. It turned out to be a private tour and we had a blast. Took us to many hidden gems.

Don’t miss out…

Our tour guide was Luis. He was absolutely amazing. He made us feel comfortable throughout the tour making sure we were getting the experience we expected. He was so knowledgeable and friendly. I would definitely recommend this tour. It was so interesting to see the geyzers, hear the history, experience the amazing views on the island and taste the traditional cozido. Absolutely amazing.

Beyond any expectations— ask for Telmo

First time to Sao Miguel and this was also our first tour there. The island is incredible obviously and this gives you so much to explore and quite honestly we were awed. Even more impressive was our experience with Telmo our guide. He was five star; extremely good natured, accommodating, informative and intelligent. Truly a delightful man we were both very impressed with him and had a great day hanging with him, even with the tour being just the two of us.

Wonderful experience!

My husband and I had a fantastic time. Our tour guide was a local with a lot of pride for his home. This was a great way to see the east side of the island and spent a comfortable amount of time at each location. It was a great mix of iconic destinations and some spots I am not sure we would’ve discovered ourselves. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting, especially for the first time. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes and bring towels for the thermal baths (possibly a change of clothes)

Unforgettable tour with a great guide

An amazing tour with Margarida who was exceptionally friendly and made it a day to remember. Non stop views & knowledge shared - recommend for anyone looking for a great tour around that part of the island.

God guide.

Guide var fantastisk. God historie fortælling helt tilbage fra 1400 tallet op til nutiden. Guiden, Mariano, havde mange historier og fantastisk humor.

Belle journée et notre...

Este tour es sencillamente...

Gwenn J, Nov 2016
Este tour es sencillamente EXCELENTE! Puede quizá no ser el más económico, pero si puedes costearlo no te decepcionara ni un poco. Delfim es el mejor guía que puedes pedir: es amable, educado, responsable y puntual no te apura en las paradas, busca los mejores spots de la isla para visitar y sacar fotos, hace el viaje a tu medida, te lleva en un vehículo súper cómodo, te cuenta historias locales, ama mostrarte lugares secretos de esta isla maravillosa, te lleva a almorzar a un restaurant con una vista espectacular sin demorarse muchisimo allí así puede aprovechar al máximo el día de paseo y habla perfectamente 4 idiomas portugués, español, inglés y francés TOUR ALTAMENTE RECOMENDABLE!
