Nice hike - We were promptly picked up at the hotel for the morning hike. Our guide was Samuel. He is very knowledgeable in history of Azores as well as the hiking trails . It was a hot day but took frequent breaks ! Great hike. Our plan changes as the hot spring was closed so Samuel quickly came up with a plan B, a trip to local liqueurs factory ! All good . Enjoys the day .

4 beautiful waterfalls - Great hike to 4 different waterfalls. Our 6 teenagers had a blast swimming in and under the waterfalls and each was a nice break to get wet and rest before the next climb. It was a steep hike down and back up with every waterfall. Total trip was almost 5 miles. Started off walking through town then hit the trail and walked through beautiful vegetation. Our guide was great and very knowledgeable about the island and its plants.

Great Guide! - Beautiful hike! It went thru forest, pasture land, and a beautiful waterfall. We learned about the hydroelectric plant and geothermal plant. Samuel was very knowledgeable about the country. Due to travel company issues, we were left without an afternoon tour and he stepped up. He took us around the island to the places we were going to miss. Very helpful! Can’t say enough positive things about him. Thank you Samuel!
