We had an absolutely amazing tour with António. We only had a half day, but were able to see some the unique features of the Island and even had time to sample some of the local delicacies. António took us to Queijo Vaquinha to sample some local cheese and made arrangements for us to have a delicious traditional lunch. Thanks António!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was a pleasure showing you some of Terceira’s unique highlights during your half‑day visit. I’m very happy you enjoyed the local experiences, especially the cheese tasting at Queijo Vaquinha and the traditional lunch. Your kind words mean a lot, and I’m glad the tour became a memorable part of your trip. You’re always welcome back to explore even more of our beautiful island!
