Perfect City Tour!

Daniel_M, Nov 2025
Dora was an excellent tour guide! We walked to different places in the city and she gave a great overview of the history of Azores, and Terceira, and Angra. She also answered all our questions and gave recommendations for activities and places to shop and eat for the rest of our trip, even going so far as to write them all down and giving us notes and a map. This is an especially good tour to do at the beginning our your trip. Dora ended our journey in a city center cafe where she bought us drinks and small Dona Amelia cakes. We highly recommend this experience from Pro Island Tours, and especially with Dora, a most excellent tour guide.

Carolina was very knowledgeable and shared so many interesting facts about Angra. The walk to the top of the museum garden was worth it—the view was spectacular! Highly recommend this tour!

Great city preview to start a stay in Angra

Caitlin_P, May 2022
This tour was a great preview of the city of Angra do Heroismo. I did this on my second day on the island and it was the perfect tour to find where all the major sites in the city are located. You can't possibly do an indepth tour of this city in 1/2 a day. We went by the memorial to Don Pedro, the museum of Angra, the cathedral, city hall, down to the marina, through the Captain-General's palace and the city gardens. I felt as if I had my bearings for the rest of my trip after this tour. It was also helpful to have a local as a guide who could share the history of the city as well as tips to fully enjoy the city
