Do this tour and ask for Natasha as your guide

Jacqueline_I, Nov 2025
Do this specific tour and ask specifically for Natasha. She is a certified guide with a master's degree in tourism (meaning the Azores). Natasha is a safe driver who conveys the story of the Azores and her love of her homeland. She is also organized and communicates well in terms of English (native fluency) and in terms of setting expectations. The outstanding trour amongst several other outstanding trips this vacation. This tour is good for people of all ages and abilities (pricy for 2 but reasonable for 4, you do need to be able to get in and out of an enclosed jeep). She even took us for a short break to get an afternoon snack of local pastry (we asked for this). The thing I learned from doing this private tour was the value for the price paid and how to ask for the following from a tour company : do you have insurance in case I miss my ship? Are your guided certified? What happens if there is bad weather, do we cancel or can the tour be modified? Important lessons. The views we had were utterly breathtaking. Be aware that there is a reason for a 4 wheel drive vehicle. Some of the roads are rough. A 'Portuguese massage"! But not too bad. And the views were absolutely worth the bumps!

Inside Access!

This tour with Natasha was exceptional! Being in the 4x4 jeep gave us inside access to the Sete Cidades beauty that a bus tour would not. Natasha stopped whenever we wanted to take a picture and that was very often! The dirt road part of the tour was exciting as well as interesting! We would book with Natasha again if returning to Pinta Delgado!! Thanks Natasha!!👏❤️

The best experience ever!

Simply put, Natascha was the most gracious of hosts - she was prompt, gelled with our group and made our experience magical. The tour itself was wonderful, and we are so blessed to have seen the Azores in the comfort of a 4x4 in a private setting. I cannot recommend this tour enough.

Best way to see Sete cidades

Carla_m, Oct 2023
Ponta Delgada was a stop on our cruise, we didn’t have but few hours to explore the island so we decided to take a private Jeep tour…best decision we could have made! Natacha. Our tour guide picked us up at the port and drove us to the highlands, unfortunately the weather wasn’t in our favor and the fog made visibility of the Sete Cidades difficult but that wasn’t an issue for Natacha, she took us thought back roads, small villages, and to the shore of the lakes. We were able to see the lakes and their beautiful colors! She is a native of the Azores so we got some history and información of the way of life in this beautiful place! Finally she dropped us off at the oldest bar in the city. Natacha is delightful and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend taking this tour instead of the bus tours, almost every passenger of the cruise ship told us they did not see anything and it was a waste if time.

Amazing

Despite the weather, Natasha planned the perfect day around it while still being able to see all the highlights we wanted. Would highly recommend and will be utilizing them when we come back. Thank you!
