The best way to get a good bearing of the island and local knowledge was priceless for the rest of the stay. Ana started by asking us if there was any location in particular that we wanted to see, where we had already been and how long we were here, then proceeded to zoom all over the place, showing and explaining everything along the way. She stopped thoughtfully every time there was a photo opp and even ensured the children enjoyed themselves. It was so great to take a day off and be escorted by her, and we appreciated all the knowledge that she had of the island that we used for the rest of our stay.Gave a complete view of island going to places off the beaten path. Wonderful day that made island come alive.

He started the tour by explaining the history of Angra de Heroismo and Praia da Vittoria. Then, he took us to volcanic caves, including Algar de Cavao, where he explained past volcanic events and what we were seeing. He also took us on a short hike at an active volcano.

My parents and I spent a marvelous day in February 2020 touring Terceira Island with one of the most informative, outgoing and welcoming tour guide I have ever encountered VitorAguiar([email protected]). He provide an extensive tour around the island and ensured that all the locations we visited and activities did were geared to our needs. The tour started when he picked us up at our hotel and ended in the evening when he dropped us off at the hotel. Duuring the tour he went above and beyond our expectations. He even brought us to his house where he and his wife introduced us to the local porto wine. After we expressed an interest in buying some wine he drove us to a supermarket where we stocked up on some wonderful wine at an inexpensive price. To this day my father enjoy Portuguese wine with his meals . Vitor's private tour around the island was a really enjoyable welcome to Terciera. It is definitely value for the price.We had an enjoyable day with John. He showed us all around the island. He brought bread with him to feed the ducks. The north shore was very good. I wish we knew the volcano caves were closed Sunday and Monday before booking.
