Best island tour of all!! Amazing value. Can’t say enough positive things. - Saw everything, Amelia was willing to modify, stay longer at any place and kept saying she was here to provide the best local experience to us. Because she was born on the island, we got an insiders view. Everyone knows her and her blue hair!

Terceira in a day - We had a fabulous day with Azores Nature Tours. Easy to book online and great communication ensured we were picked up just where we wanted to be by Amélia, our tour guide. We drove around the island taking in beautiful scenery, amazing viewpoints, towns and top tourist spots. Amélia was fabulous. Nothing was too much trouble and she was so knowledgeable. She was a good driver, great fun and gave us as much time as we wanted at each stop. Highlights for us included Monte Brasil, Serra do Cume and the Biscoitos natural pools. Our tour bus was clean and comfortable and Amélia delivered us back to our hotel with lots of photos and amazing memories. Highly recommend

Extraordinary experience - We couldn’t have had better experience to have an overview of this amazing island. Mario is an unusual Guide! In addition to an extraordinary knowledge of the details are not geological of the island, but also cultural, deliver the heart in what it does!
The tour was done at our pace, without rush and adjusted to what we were most interested in seeing!

An excellent tour of the island - Tour was at a good pace and not too much information where it overwhelmed. Guide was excellent. Believe her name was Emilia/Amelia. (blue haired girl). Good personality and gave enough information so that it was informative, but not to point of being boring. Pickup and dropoff was problem free.

Great full day tour of the island - Great way to see the island with limited time. Favorite part was the swimming area in volcanic rock - wish we had more time there and brought our swim suits. Tour guide Amelia was great! Really enjoyed it!

A fabulous island tour. - My wife and I took the full day tour of Terceira Island with Jaime Fernandes. It was the perfect introduction to this beautiful Island. He picked us up at the airport near Praia da Victoria and dropped us off at our hotel in Angra do Heroisma at the end of the day. He was extremely knowledgeable, spoke perfect English, had a very comfortable van and adapted the schedule to our preferences. He even made reservations for a fabulous lunch at a restaurant we would have never found ourselves. It was an amazing experience on a surprisingly beautiful and exciting Island with so much to see and experience. We highly recommend this tour.
