Jorge is an amazing human being and a great tour guide. He was very personable and knowledgeable and he was always concerned about my comfort. We had a great day! I highly recommend Jorge and this tour!! Thank you, Robert From New York City

Nordeste -foggy day😕

Not great if a cloudy or foggy day. Jorge was very nice and knowledgeable. But the weather makes a big difference for this particular trip. Would recommend if the weather is good. Alternative stops should be planned in case of fog or bad weather.

The most beautiful Island! Just like a fairy land!

Great tour, highly recommend! Our tour guide was Ricardo and he did a great job of allowing us the right amount of time at each stop and working in some extra stops as well!

The Nordeste Waterfall Tour is definitely worth it -- amazing waterfalls, stunning views, beautiful hiking paths. Our tour guide was wonderful - explaining a lot about the Nordeste and its history.

Outstanding visit. Highly recommend.

Our driver/guide Andre was waiting for us, our name held high on his sign, as we walked out of cruise dock exit….. just me and the mrs. On our own private tour! Great start and it just got better as day went on. Great conversation with Andre about history, culture, politics and details about the Azores. Saw waterfalls, farms, villages, photo viewpoints, stopped for quick bite to eat, a wonderful, no rush tour. Very informative…no question went unanswered.. a gracious host and fine guide. Outstanding.

Jorge was the absolute best guide. He listened to our interests and took us to see the most beautiful spots. He was a wealth of knowledge. We loved our tour with him. He works for or rather owns Keep Walking Azores. He provided us with our best excursion ever. Joyce Carter
