Our tour guide Sam was exceptional, knowledgeable, personable, friendly, and accommodating. We were able to do the hike to the falls, then he graciously took us to the churches of our ancestors, all the while looking up information about the church online while we were in the churches. I would highly recommend him.

Very scenic and slightly hilly hike. The 3 waterfalls were stunning!
Our tour guide Samuel was very friendly, patient, accommodating, and knowledgeable. He answered every question we had and provided information about Sao Miguel its history.
Samuel made our fist excursion in the Azores welcoming and memorable. He helped take amazing pictures that will last a lifetime. Highly recommend Green Corner Tours!

We had the best time hiking with Samuel! He picked us up from our hotel, and we were lucky enough to be the only two on the tour. Our first stop was the tea plantation, where we learned so much about tea production from him. He explained everything so clearly and interestingly. We then went on the waterfall hike, and along the way he taught us about the various plants we encountered and generally made our hike so safe and enjoyable. We had the best time, and we cannot wait to come back to the Azores to do another excursion with him!
