What a fun way to tour!! I was unsure of what to expect, but the ATV tour was just a great way to see area in a different way. We had already done a full day tour of the Sete Cidades area by a traditional van tour earlier in the week, and though we went to overlapping areas, the open air traveling (though admitted cold at times) allowed us to take away a different experience from the beautiful nature we were seeing. Philip was our guide and he was attentive, fun and knowledgeable. He kept things moving but in a comfortable pace. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a little adventure with their sightseeing.

We where on the trip yesterday with Philip as a guide. He is calm and knowledgeable guy and has a good humor. He tells local stories and shows special locations. We had a blast with our two teenage sons.
The deskription says you will go by a thermal pool. We didn’t see that but a lot of other beautiful places. We saw Furnas the day before where we experienced the thermal pool so we appreciated to se something different.

I wish I could rate this 0 stars. This company will rob your money. The quads are in terrible condition. You WILL get hurt AND you WILL flip over if you drive these quads. I have attached photos of the terrible shape the quads are in. All of the quads and ATVS are not in safe conditions. The tires are balding(in photos) Our tour guide Rueben was very nice but this tour is dangerous and they do not deserve any money they robbed us!! They will put a $500 hold on your card mandatory and if there’s one little scratch they will keep that money. ROBBERY. I am Portuguese and wanted to support a local tourist company but even then they don’t care and stole our money. The owner would not even talk to us.

The guide, Fillipe, was wonderful! The scenery was stunning and the ride was exhilarating. This is a must-do activity!

This tour is fantastic. You get to drive every type of road the island has to offer, and at each stop the tour guides offer information about the area and nature. The views are so good, you’ll question your sanity.

Great way to see the area. Our guide Phillipe was excellent. We recommend this tour. The lunch stop is worth the trip itself.

1st ATV experience! Andre Mattias was a great guide! Great instruction, very knowledgeable, friendly!! Lunch at Michaelense snack bar was great too!! Thanks for a wonderful day and beautiful views from Sete Cidades!!

Amazing experience exploring Sete Cidades and a traditional lunch spot in a small town. I would recommend the buggys as the ATV’s are more dangerous and uncomfortable.

Notre guide était super sympatique, Prend le temps de nous expliquer l'histoire de la région. Le restaurant où nous sommes arrêter manger était très bon, style buffet. Sentiers biens aménagés. Panorama à couper le souffle. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Leuke manier om op een andere wijze het eiland te verkennen. Gezien dagtrip hadden we verwacht meer te zien. Eiland is prachtig maar andere excursies waren veelzijdiger. Buggy 's en quadq wel leuke afwisseling.
