Dora delivered an exceptional experience!

We recently went to Terceira on a once-in-a-lifetime trip with the entire family. My father originates from Terceira, and he had not been back in 31 years! Dora understood from the beginning that we wanted to see the sites, we may actually need to add a few extra sites from my father’s past. She went over and beyond and truly made this tour a special memory.

80th Birthday Terceira Tour

We had the nest full day island tour of Terceira with James! There were 8 of us celebrating grandpa’s birthday and we fit perfectly in the van. James was super knowledgeable about everything concerning the island; volcanic rock formations, history, people, food, etc. And his English was perfect! Would totally book his company again for other excursions! 10/10 highly recommend!!!

Tremendously helpful guide and a terrific tour.

This full day tour of Terceira Island can’t be beat. The local sites, the island’s history, and the scenic drives can’t be missed. But the tour guide, André, made the day really special. He’s so knowledgeable and eager to share island facts with you. More importantly, at every stop André would ask each person were they doing OK. Did we have any questions? Was there anything we wanted more information on ? Were we comfortable? This was super helpful.Don’t miss this tour with this marvellous guide.

Diogo was amazing

We did the 7 hour van tour and our guide was Diogo. He was very knowledgeable and entertaining. He was very nice and had a lot of information to share about the island including history, farming and the people. If this is your first time on the island book this first you will not be let down. Highly recommend this tour
