About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Melodye F0 contributionsBest Sete Cidades Tour! Daniel was Amazing!Daniel was an amazing expert tour guide who made the day exciting and fun. He took us to scenic areas, incredible sites, and fabulous overlooks for Sete Cidades. He provided rich history and interesting stories of the Azores. We loved the Land Rover off road experience high above the lakes. It was misting part of the day, so we were sooo glad we did not take a Quad Tour! Thank you, Daniel! Highly recommend!Written December 2, 2024
- Siniša R0 contributionsGreat experienceIt was great trip with our great guide Daniel. Really interesting and nice landscapes and enviroment. Defintely worth the money.Written November 28, 2024
- UKPete710 contributionsA must see for the west of the island.Our guide Sergio was very friendly and passionate about the island and where we went on the tour. His enthusiasm was a delight and added an extra dimension to the wonderful sights we saw on the Azores.Written November 25, 2024
- blackbess660 contributionsBest tour guide everCannot rate this trip enough, Mariano our guide was absolutely amazing he went above and beyond( Greenzone you seriously need to keep hold of this guy,) fantastic trip, excellent knowledge and a seriously lovely lunch, highly recommendWritten November 22, 2024
- JosephV490 contributionsDisappointingA little disappointed. The tour description listed Sete Cidades & Lagoa do Fogo, but we never went to the second one. Instead the guide took us around the rim and then several times around the inside. Stopped on 3 occasions and said we could walk if we wanted. Going around once in the inside and not stopping for walks would have made it possible to see both. The guide was very knowledgable and courteous. We arrived by cruise ship but were paired with a couple staying at a hotel. The man had limited English and the wife didn't speak it at all. He kept translating, which made it rather annoying. Apparently he didn't know he booked an English speaking tour. Not worth the price we paid.Written November 18, 2024
- Kathryn C0 contributionsVery good tour & guide - lunch included not greatThe tour guide was very good. The package was good value for money. The only disappointing aspect was the lunch. The traditional meal was not hot. My alternative meal was tasty but was also only warm. Free drinks were provided with lunch the only wine offered was red wine, beer or water / passion fruit soda. It would have been nice to be offered a glass of wine of choice instead of a bottle of red on the table. I ended up buying rose.Written November 15, 2024
- Nciervo180 contributionsAmazing tourWe did a second tour with edwardo and had another amazing time. He provided so much information about the island and has such a great passion for his home. We had a great experience. So great we did it twice!Written November 14, 2024
- Nciervo180 contributionsWhat an amazing experience!We had a great experience with edwardo. He was so knowledgable and passionate about the island it was very refreshing.

- peterpK413PN0 contributionsSee what you'll never see from a carBetter than expected. Saw and learned a lot because guide was skilled & able to answer all our questions on flora animals bats & village topicsWritten November 7, 2024
- charlenelS2406AE0 contributionsFun and a great learning experienceWe had a wonderful time with Mariano today! He was very knowledgeable about all of the areas we visited. Also arranged the tour to accommodate the weather due to fog in some areas. We were able to visit and see all of the sights offered on this trip. Lunch was very nice. Overall a great tour. No rushing and enjoyable for all on the tour. Highly recommend this tour group and guide!Written October 30, 2024
- clarahW1324WZ0 contributionsThe grandeur of Sete CidadesEduardo was an excellent guide, who was very informative and really cares about the ecosystem of the island. I highly recommend a tour that is the least impactful on the nature's splendor that is Sete Cidades.Written October 29, 2024
- D6829LYtoms0 contributionsExploring the Back RoadsWonderful tour! Mariano was an engaging and experienced guide who grew up in the area and had a wealth of information to share. The scenery and insights from our guide made the full day tour an exhilarating experience. The land rover and Mariano's experience plying the back roads got us to places we would have never otherwise visited. We will be back!Written October 28, 2024

Instead of hiring a car, we decided to book 3 tours during our Sao Miguel stay, Full Day Tour to Furnas with Terra Nostra Gardens, Sete Cidades & Lagoa and Full Day Tour to Nordeste. We did not regret for a minute, our 4 x 4 trips were booked with with Greenzone Tours and our driver was Ricardo each time. What an amazing Guide he is! His love and enthusiasm for the island is wonderful and extremely infectious, making our holiday to the Azores one of the best we ever had. He took us to all the beautiful major sites but also to many stunning areas which are off the beaten track and which we may never have discovered without him. Being an Azorean, Ricardo's all round knowledge was brilliant, he was informative and considerate, making each trip interesting yet fun. We couldn't have experienced this superb island in a better way. Thank you so much to Ricardo and Greenzone Tours.

Amazing to see the hot springs and the beautiful flower garden and tea plantation. We took this 2nd tour because our tour guide, Eduardo was excellent for our other tour, the Sete Cidades tour. We only did the 4 hour tour but recommend taking the 8 hour as there is so much to see.

My family booked both a half day jeep Sete Cidades and full day van Furnas tour. Both days were packed with adventure. The jeep tour was a blast, a fun off road journey with breath taking views of the lake from above and ground level. Add to that the aqueducts, Igreja de Sao Nicolau, cafe stop and amazing additional viewing points. It was an amazing half day that left us looking forward to our next tour. The jeep was perfect choice for the off road experience to Sete Cidades but on the full day Furnas tour we choose a van to be a bit more comfortable. The view of Vila Franca from Nossa Senhora da Paz is not to be missed, add to that relaxing in hot springs while it rained (still awesome), beautiful gardens, cozido lunch (super tasty), viewing the furnas area, spouts for sipping spring water, the tea farm tour and again additional stops with amazing viewing points. We were fortunate to have Mario for both of our tours, it was like time spent with a new friend. Mario let us set the pace and provided options for our destinations. In addition to providing a wealth of information about this beautiful island he shared additional anecdotes along the way and left us with restaurant and hiking tips (obrigada Mario!). Highly recommend, we could not have smoothly coordinated this much adventure without booking these tours!

Traveling solo to the Azores, I hired Greenzone for 3 private tours (sete cuidades, Lagoa do fogo and Furnas). I didn’t want to rent a car and spend time figuring out where to go, where to park, etc. with limited time on Sao Miguel. My two guides, Rodrigo and Sérgio were so great to spend the days with one on one. When weather didn’t cooperate for an activity, they were quick to suggest another. Conversation was easy and interesting with great details about history, local customs, suggestions for where to eat (and not to eat!)
Recent rains had raised the level of Lagoa do Fogo, making the hike around the lake impassable. (Nearly). Sergio carefully picked rocks, roots and branches for us to navigate “almost” to the beach so I wouldn’t miss an experience that was important to me. One of the best days of my life.
I often hire private guides for touring when traveling solo (or with my children). I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Greenzone to a friend, whether looking for a private experience or small group.
