This is the best tour we had at the island. Our guide Jaoquim was very friendly and knowledgeable. He was friendly and very accommodating. Lunch buffet was great. Lots of choices for everyone. I strongly recommend this as a must tour!!
The tour is great! Jose Miguel (our tour guide and driver) made the day outstanding! Very knowledgeable- we learn so much about the island, the culture, the environment, the food…
He brought us everywhere, great viewpoints, nice lunch and experience! We enjoyed so much with, highly recommend it, very glad that we did it.
Nuno was the best tour guide! Very informative tour and friendly. Tour i cluded visits to the Pineapple plantation, Lagoa, distillery, and National Park. Highly recommend.
Wonderful experience. The guide was lovely. Lunch was fantastic and overall a great tour. They accommodate pick ups and drop offs and give you time at each stop. Really a great way to see this part of the island in a short time.
Interesting and informative tour around a fascinating and beautiful island.
Our driver and guide José was excellent - informative and friendly (without being too talkative all the time, which is a risk on this sort of tour).
Excellent lunch included too - cooked in a natural hot spring :)
All in all, heartily recommended!

Our guide Joaquim was excellent. We had a wonderful day. Saw the black sand beach, waterfalls and many beautiful views.
Absolutely fabulous day beautiful island with lovely lunch. Lovely guide thanks for making this day wonderful !
We had an amazing time today with Joaquim and our group. We got to see all the great scenery and enjoyed an authentic lunch. Definitely recommend!
My experience with Joaquim was absolute perfection. It was absolutely amazing to see Sete Cidades and Lago do Fogo. Everything was timed perfectly for a relaxed, yet eventful experience rooted in understanding more deeply the island’s customs and culture. I 100% recommend this experience and I suggest you request Joaquim to be your tour guide.
We had an amazing day. Joaquin was so thoughtful and knowledgeable. He made the tour group feel like family. The tour was absolutely breathtaking beautiful! The pictures don’t do it justice. I would highly recommend this company and Joaquin.
Joaquin our guide was excellent. He is very passion to his island he was born .Very informative and gives options if one does not works.
Our guide Jose Melo was excellent. Knew many facts about the island and flora. Well worth the cost. A full day including a delicious lunch
The views were amazing and we were taken to viewpoints we would not have reached on our own. Lunch was good too.
However as it was booked as an English tour, it was annoying how much time the guide spent speaking in Portugese to the one Portugese visitor, even though her English was excellent, and he didn't translate those conversations for the rest of us.
This tour was an absolutely amazing experience! It beautifully showcased the diverse Azorean landscape, featuring everything from calderas and lagoons to waterfalls. Joaquim, our guide, was exceptionally knowledgeable about both the natural environment and the rich culture of the Azores.
We had such a great experience exploring the island with our guide João - he showed us various spots on the island including beautiful vistas, a great lunch, waterfalls, thermal pools and more. He personalized the tour for us and was super accommodating and flexible. We had a great experience!
You can expect great views, visit a pineapple farm and a ceramic factory.
Our tour guide Bruno was outstanding.
I would give this zero stars if I could. The reason is that he was supposed to be picked up at our hotel at 9 AM. Leaving there about 840 when no one came by 9:15. He started to get concerned. I eventually reached by Viatour because I couldn’t get in touch with Green visions, which was the name of the tour company. Viator was also enabled to reach green visions. Nobody ever did show up Viator finally verified that we were not at fault and we were refunded our entire amount Paid. We lost a half a day. Luckily our hotel was able to book us a private afternoon tour and we were able to see almost all of what we were supposed to see on the tour we had booked if you requested me picked up at your hotel. Make sureThat it is going to happen if you use Green vision tours.
Response from Host, Nov 2024
Goodnight.
The situation was as follows:
Your online reservation was scheduled but for some reason that we were unable to understand, your reservation was not in our bookings.
We apologize for what happened.
As soon as we become aware of the situation, we promptly refund your reservation. It was our company who made the refund and not the viator.
That day, our entire team was working outside the office and we were unable to answer your call.
This was an atypical situation because our company always honors its commitments and bookings, our reviews prove this.
Once again we apologize for the situation and inconvenience it may have caused.
Best regards,
Green Visions Tours
Bruno was excellent !!
Knowledgeable, entertaining, took us to some unique spots for amazing views and photo opportunities!!
Appreciate his perspective of the Azorean culture-plus he is very passionate about sustainability!! Refreshing for a tour guide!!
Knew the weather, so were able to get everything in at the right time of day!!
Definitely recommend this tour!!
It was an amazing experience with an extremely knowledgeable and friendly host. Carlos was welcoming and went out of his way to make our tour memorable. There were four of us plus the host in the minivan which was air-conditioned and comfortable.
Our host Carlos knew exactly where to take us for the best views and the various attractions included in the tour. I would happily go with Green vision tours again.
Covered a number of great locations for fantastic views over the west side of the island. Learnt about pineapple cultivation, lunch was huge buffet with drinks.
We thoroughly enjoyed our day with amazing views. Bruno is very knowledgeable and made the whole day enjoyable, we would recommend booking through Green Visions for this tour.
Great driver who was very knowledgeable about plants, history, and the geology of the island. Good lunch but restaurant was very hot inside.
great, thank you for this experience, our guide showed us some really interesting places. Also we did receive a lot od informations abput the Azores History.
Eduardo Miranda did a great job doing the tour. He picked us up on time and showed us all of the area. He was very helpful and took really good care of us.
Eduardo was on time very friendly and informative. He had a lot of information and we enjoyed our day
Incredible tour, had an amazing time and the tour guide made sure to adjust our tour based on the weather to make sure our viewpoints were the best possible
Bruno, our guide is great ! He show us many great places and provided a lot of detailed information about these places. We are happy with Seven cities lake ! It is amazing ! Pineapple fabric and ceramics fabrics also amazing ! Sete Cidades make us a lot of positive emotions!
Tour guide was amazing, we had an incredible day with him. His knowledge of the Azores in general and Sao Miguel in particular with its landmarks, and scenic areas was unsurpassable. The island is beautiful. Lunch was included as well and he took us to a small family run restaurant and had an amazing meal of locally caught fresh tuna. I highly recommend!
Bruno was amazing, he gave a lot of information, we had enough time to enjoy all the stops and the lunch was very tasty. Full recommended.
Our guide, Hugo, is very knowledgeable about this island. He knows the history of the people, land and fauna. His passion and love of his home is obvious and gladly shared it with us.
