“Great day trip around the sights of Terceira. Miguel was very knowledgeable and informative, he knew the island inside out as he grew up there and had lived there all of his life.

“Great experience with Jaime and Gabriel at Azores Nature Tours! They’re both very passionate about showing off the beauty of Terceira and providing high quality tour and client services. Jaime went above and beyond to pick me up and drop me off at the airport, as I was only on the island for a day! Very grateful for this service, as it would have been difficult for me otherwise. I was also the only person on the tour that didn’t speak Portuguese, and Gabriel made sure to be accommodating (speak English, as well). He provided the group with many historical and scientific facts about Terceira and the Azores. If you…”
