Summary: My husband and I had a wonderful tour with Agna (spelling?). She was extremely knowledgeable about the island and a delight to spend the day with. She knew we liked to swim and took us to some amazing places. The lunch was one of the best we have had in the Azores and the tour of the coffee and fruit plantation was informative and entertaining. We highly recommend this tour.

Summary: Fabulous experience start to finish. Our guide designed a custom tour based on our preferences, and then adjusted more than once along the way as we heard about new possibilities. We were a party of 4 - 2 couples from the US - and this tour managed to leave us all loving the experience. Particular highlights were the oceanside natural swimming inlets, visiting a small coffee farm, and a stroll through the epic cypress woods.

Summary: We had the most amazing day! Ivo was our guide and we couldn't have been happier. We were treated like queens. Nothing was a problem. He tailored the trip to our interests and we never felt like we were rushed. Even though one of our stops was unavailable they substituted a visit to a local coffee and fruit plantation where we got to meet the very hospitable Philomena and Joe who welcomed us like we were long lost family. Don't hesitate about booking this trip. You will get your money's worth and much, much more! Great experience!
