Best "non-cruise", "cruise excursion" EVER

Dawn_W, Mar 2025
I can on a cruise ship to the Azores, and this was THE BEST excursion I have ever been on. I booked it through Viator and was worried about that, but our guide was very contentious to our needing to be back.on time, so don't let that deter you from booking! Our guide was.so knowledgeable, kind, and personable! I cannot recommend his tour enough!

Interesting, fun tour for ages 5-75!

This tour was excellent!!! Sam is a very easy going, intelligent guide. He interacted wonderfully with our 5.5 year old and kept us all entertained. He was able to accommodate an earlier pickup due to our limited time in port. We loved having a private tour and hire Sam when we come back!!!

A fantastic half day event and a brilliant tour guide

Paul_H, Mar 2024
A great morning excursion. Our driver and guide, Samual, was really good. He was fun, friendly, entertaining and knew answers to everything we asked. A very professional guide indeed. The sights we saw were truly memorable and the trip to the fumeroles in Furnas was fantastic and so interesting. I would highly recommend this outing and anything else done by our guide.
