This was a great way to get to see several views and do some gentle hiking around the Western part of the island. Andres was our guide. Super friendly and mellow. Excellent knowledge about the island and information about the geography. We never would have been able to navigate all these view points without his help. Great way to start our time on Sao Miguel to get oriented.
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review Sonya! We're glad the tour served as a great introduction to São Miguel and helped you get your bearings. André will be happy to hear his local knowledge and relaxed approach helped you navigate the best spots smoothly. Enjoy the rest of your time exploring the island! Best regards, The Safari Azores Team
Great tour. Tour guide Tiago was great. I would skip the pineapple plantation- interesting, but not worth it. Waterfall was very nice, and almost deserted. Lagos do Fagao was amazing, even better than the seven cities. North coast was rugged and worthy of visiting.
Thank you for sharing such a detailed review — it's genuinely helpful, both for us and for future travellers! We're happy to hear Tiago made such a great impression. He's one of those guides who brings the island to life, and we'll make sure he knows you singled him out. On the pineapple plantation — fair point, and we appreciate the honest take. It's a stop that divides opinions, and feedback like yours helps us keep the experience as sharp as possible. Lagoa do Fogo stealing the show from Sete Cidades? We hear that more than you'd think! There's something about that crater lake that catches people off guard. And the north coast tends to be the quiet highlight that most visitors don't expect — glad it delivered. Hope the rest of your trip was just as good. If you ever find yourself back in the Azores, you know where to find us! Safari Azores Team
They said they would do the tour even with one person, but they cancelled last minute stating that the guide got sick and that they cannot put me on the tour of another operator as all operators are fully booked for the same day. When I looked on the internet I found several other operators doing the same tour. In my view the whole experience was simply dishonest! I am sure they will write a counter rewrite to protect their poor attitude.
Our sincere apologies for your disappointment. Even though we tried very hard to fulfil the tour, unforeseen circumstances prevented us from doing so. We do honour bookings for 1 person only and we did try a few of our partner companies to accommodate you. We didn't inquire all of them and thus what you're saying is also valid. Best regards, Alexandre
This tour is especially recommended because it utilizes a high-clearance 4-wheel vehicle that allows driving unpaved local roads providing incredible views in a reasonable time. The route is well-thought, you will enjoy the experience. Our guide Carlos was very friendly and helpful.
Thank you very much for your kind words. We're happy you've had a great time. Kind regards, Alexandre
Very good excursion, Francisco is a very good guide, very cultured and who knows very well his island and its history. Combining Lago de Fogo and Sete Cidades is a good idea for people like me who like to have a good rhythm! Don't panic there are enough breaks and stops to take pictures, admire the view and catch your breath if necessary. The weather was a bit capricious (without rain) but the guide knew how to foresee the order to enjoy the sunny weather in the right place and at the right time. Thank you to him again! If you plan to swim in the thermal waters of Caldera Velha, entry + swimming costs 10 € for about 45min of swimming (to be reconfirmed on site)
Merci pour la critique. Je la transmettrai à Francisco ;-)
The trip in Safari was better than I expected as I got dizzy easily , the tour made me enjoyable and Francisco our Guide explained many things about the island and the areas we visited , as paste there were many for such a jeep and you also miss the experience of being able to walk up which is more satisfying .
Muchas gracias, 🙏
We had an excellent day. Weather was on our sid! Nuno is an amazing tour guide, always giving us information on what we were seeing and eager to answer any questions we had. He made our experience so much more memorable.
We're happy that you've enjoyed it! Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
Excellent tour! Prompt reaction to messages before the tour, timely pickup, great guide sharing lots of interesting info, and lots of cool places to see...
Hi Martin. Thank you for the review and I'm glad you've enjoyed it!
Unfortunately we had FOG all day and didn't see anything that was already a pity but you can't do anything there we were just unlucky with the weather. Our guide Miguel tried very hard we took some photos and took beautiful Morning Glory Flower Pics and could go swimming in a natural pool by the sea. It would have been nice if you could have gone swimming in caldeira velhas. The waterfall was great, there was also the possibility to swim but the weather was just not that great. Miguel was very nice has entertained us in English and the others in Portuguese!
Obrigado! | Danke sehr!
Thanks to Francisco. An exceptional guide. During the tour he explained to us in detail each point on the Lagoa do Fogo and Sete Cidades route. Even some stages of the Azores Rally. We will definitely return to do the Furnas tour. Patricia and Steven
