The weather on this July day for our Sao Miguel West tour was less than ideal, but Catia was able to adjust the order of the itinerary so we can still see all the must do sights. Catia is also very knowledgeable and entertaining. We truly appreciate her caring and attentiveness to us 2 seniors with negotiating the rain soaked slippery muddy track to the Boca do Inferno viewpoint. We did the Sao Miguel East with Pure Azores as well and we highly recommend both. They are amongst the best tours we had in our travels to 93 countries.
This tour was absolutely fantastic. We saw so many beautiful sights and got out of the car super often. Our guide Manuel was very knowledgeable and clearly had great love for this island. Couldn't recommend enough! Also a bonus that they keep the groups small so things are not too hectic and you have space to ask the guide a lot of questions if you want.
We had a wonderful full-day tour with Pure Azores, and our guide, Márcio Amaral, made it truly memorable. He was incredibly knowledgeable about São Miguel’s history, geology, nature, and local culture, and he shared everything with genuine enthusiasm, humour and warmth. The itinerary was well organized, the scenery was breathtaking, and the small-group experience made the day even more enjoyable. We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to appreciate each stop. Thank you, Márcio, for such a fantastic experience😊.
João was an awesome guide. Everything was taken care of and he answered every question. He was knowledgeable and funny. I recommend this tour company and guide! Only 8 people max per tour and the busses for this company are all electric which was a pleasant surprise.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you had such a great experience with João. It’s fantastic that you enjoyed his knowledge, sense of humour, and the small-group experience.

Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back again soon!

Experience first-hand the natural beauty, the variability of the weather, the blooming days of the season, and the professional sharing of guides.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that, despite the weather, the tour became such a memorable experience. It’s great to know you enjoyed walking through the Japanese cedar forest, admired the beautiful hydrangeas in bloom, and were amazed by São Miguel’s dramatic cliffs. We’re also very happy that the guide's professionalism and friendly personality made the day even more enjoyable. Thank you for your kind words, and we hope to welcome you back again!
We did this tour in addition to the East island tour and we would absolutely recommend both. We were so fortunate as the conditions were favourable and we got fantastically clear views of the green and blue lakes. Marcio was brilliant and a lot of fun and he took us to lots of places of interest and we loved the variety of what we saw - the beautiful coastline, extinct volcanoes and lakes as examples. We were only on Ponto Delgada for 3 days and we felt that we got to see all the main sights and Marcio took great care of us. It was nice that lunch was also included. We would absolutely recommend this and the East tour too with Pure Azores. The vehicle was so comfortable and new - an excellent tour.
Thank you for your fantastic review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed both the West and East tours and that the weather gave you those beautiful clear views of the Green and Blue Lakes. It’s wonderful that Márcio helped make the experience so memorable and that you were able to see so much of São Miguel during your stay. We truly appreciate your recommendation of both tours and of Pure Azores.
Great trip with excellent Joao))) We were lucky with weather and absolutely beautiful spots picked by our guide. Highly recommended!
