Fun Day!
This tour is the ideal way to explore Sao Miguel. Arthur our guide was excellent. He shared interesting information about the sites we visited as well as history. His vehicle was clean and comfortable. He drove safely. We had a leisurely time to enjoy the scenery and take pictures. The tour was not rushed. Communications from the company prior to the tour was timely, confirming pickup details. We were glad to have booked this private tour. A fun day exploring Sao Miguel.

Best Guide Ever! :)
rtur was an incredibly helpful, kind, and genuinely friendly driver. From the very beginning, we felt completely at ease with him. He shared many fascinating insights about the island, and since he is a local with family here, booking him also means supporting someone from the community, which made the experience even more special. He took his time with us and thoughtfully adjusted the plan according to the weather, so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. On top of that, he was always reachable by phone. There was even a moment when we got stuck in a town, and he came to pick us up without hesitation. We can highly recommend Artur and would absolutely book him again. We’d also like to mention that he will soon be offering an Airbnb, which we’re sure will be just as wonderful as the experience we had with him. We were two girls on a trip without a car and we always felt super save with Artur!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much , i am very thanfull, all the best . Girls you guys are allwalls very welcame . Hope to see you again . ;)))))

Artur- Amazing views but even better company!
Artur was an absolute dream tour guide ! We booked an all day private tour hoping to see as much of the island as we could on our very short visit and Artur made it happen! Artur shared beautiful stories of his culture, history of the island and of course took us to the most breathtaking views! We were in awe! Not only was the island fully of beauty and wonder but Artur was also a shining star with his humor and welcoming ! Truly made us feel like part of the Azorean Family! We can’t wait to visit again and book another tour !
Response from the operator: Thank you so much, i enjoy a lot work with you guys, hope to see you guys again, all the best . Best Regards . ;)))))))))

+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
