Stunning views and friendly guide - Highly recommend this! The hiking path shares the road with the off-roading vehicles so you would avoid hiking up. Also, there is not a single path of shade. The road is not meant for regular vehicles. The guide was on time, professional, and friendly.

Amazing experience and very friendly and experienced driver! - We had an amazing experience on our trip to Sete Cidades. Gonsalvo ( hope I am spelling his name correctly) was on time, very friendly and knowledgeable and made us feel comfortable and welcomed. Sete Cidades is a beautiful area and Gonsalvo is a fantastic driver in the off road sections especially. Thank you for the wonderful experience !

Book it! - Margarida is the most AMAZING guide. She showed us around the island on 2 days. She imparted some of her vast wisdom on us, teaching us about the geology, flora, history, and pop culture of the island. She even helped us choose our wedding spot! And surprised us with champagne to celebrate! We felt like royalty, riding past hikers and accessing unique viewpoints in the Jeep. I cannot wait to visit the island again and will absolutely ask for Margarida again!

A great tour - Miguel was great, managed to get our family of 7, including three children into the jeep safely with child appropriate seats. He was careful to ensure we were all buckled in before driving, which took a little patience each time we got out. His stories about the island were informative and entertaining. And he was also generous with his time. Thank you

Tour guide was very nice... - Tour guide was very nice and spoke good English. Guide lived his whole life on the Island and loved the local culture and envrironment. Views were good (weather cooperated) outside of very strong winds at high elevations which made it colder. Very rustic roads in spring of year however the guide was very experienced driver in such conditions (recent rains created ruts in the back roads) however vehicle was made for the conditions. . For me, the views were slightly above average, that opinion may be dependent on overall traveller experience, the more places you've see in the world the harder it is to continue being impressed. I think a month later (in May) would result in more floral activity resulting in more impressive views, etc.
