- denisesC3895JQ0 contributionsFantastic Guided TourWe had a fabulous experience on our private tour yesterday. Our guide Margarita was fantastic. It was the best private tour had on any travel vacation. She was warm and friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about the island the people of the island, the terrain, and any other questions that we had, she went above and beyond in every aspect that I would expect from a travel guide. I highly recommend this company and I’m sure all their guides are equally great but if you can get Margarita , you’re in for a real treat.Written August 22, 2024
- francinei4910 contributionsGreat tour and tour guides!Our family, group of 12 people ranging from 1 year old to 74 years old, went on a Half-Day Jeep Tour from Ponta Delgada - Lagoa do Fogo today. We had an amazing time. The ride was very comfortable, the tour guides were all top notch! They were very friendly, kind, and super informative. We had several different abilities (infants to people with joint problems) and they accommodated for everyone so they could experience all aspects of this tour! We were able to access parts of the island that we would have never been able to experience! We would recommend them 100%!Written August 19, 2024
- katrynajc0 contributionsAmazing tour!We had an amazing time! Our guide Margarita was incredible! They even customized the tour just for us. We hiked and toured the gorgeous Sete Cidades, ate incredible lunch at Lagoa Azul, and swam at the other worldly thermal pools along the coast. I definitely recommend!Written August 16, 2024
- rogerpF5476CV0 contributionsSeeing the Sights in Sete Cidades!We cannot say enough great things about Delfin and his company. He is a tremendous tour guide with a clear love for his craft (and it shows!). He catered the trip towards what we wanted to do and brought us to an unbelievably delicious restaurant for a very memorable meal and dessert! My wife and I were able to see so much of the West side of Sao Miguel (and learn even more about the history) in just one day thanks to the wonderfully crafted itinerary from Delfin. We will definitely be using T4W in our next trip to Azores.Written August 9, 2024

- Expedition5978700 contributionsBeautifulThis was a great trip. Despite the bad rainy weather we got to see lots of beautiful sites. Our guide, Mariano, was super nice and informative. We really enjoyed tour. The only negative about the tour was that the Jeep was very old and the AC did not work properly. Since it was not a warm day, it was fine. But it would’ve been uncomfortable on a hot day. Even though it was a full day tour, I wish we had more time to explore. It’s such a beautiful island. We had a flight to catch at night so we needed to be back to Ponta Delgada by 5:30. If you’re planning to visit Sao Miguel, give yourself at least 5 days. This way you get to see all the beautiful sites and can account for bad weather on some days too. Who would’ve thought that we would get three back to back days of rain and fog in the middle of July! We couldn’t see any of the high elevation sites because of heavy fog, which is a shame. Despite that we still got to see plenty of beautiful sites. The trip was well worth it.Written July 19, 2024
- Karmike20190 contributionsMariano was a fantastic guide for family with 4 teenage boys!Mariano was the best tour guide! We told him that we are an active family of 6 (4 teenage boys) and he created the best tour for us, based on the fact that we wanted to move around a lot and also it was a foggy/cloudy day! Highly recommend. Super friendly and flexible and gave us an amazing 8 hours. Great history of the island and background insider info on all the things we saw. Engaging for all ages.Written July 17, 2024

- kalenm20180 contributionsTerrific tour!We had a terrific tour with Mariano. We had rented a car and driven around the island the day before, but he took us on back roads and shortcuts that we would not have known about. He also added a personal touch to the geologic and cultural history of the island. He was so kind, knowledgeable and funny. It would not have been the same without him as the guide! Through no fault of the tour company, the lake was shrouded in fog so we couldn't see it, but it was still a great tour with other sights. Would highly recommend and ask for Mariano!Written July 10, 2024

We have booked a trip to Sete Cidades with T4W at the beginning of our holiday. The tour was excellent - Delfim is a very knowledgeable guide and showed us places around the lakes where we could have never got on our own in a rented car or on foot! The trip was also tailored to our needs and we had the options to choose between places we preferred to visit or follow our guide’s recommendation. We had such a good experience we booked immediately for a next trip the following day! Highly recommended!

Our Jeep tour with Eduardo was a highlight of our 20 day vacation!
He is an excellent driver, manoeuvring the Jeep with ease in challenging off-road conditions. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and went out of his way to show us things that he knew would be of special interest to us. His gregarious and generous personality made us feel that we had known him a long time; we will be in touch with him when we return to this beautiful island.
The natural beauty of the Azores rivals that of New Zealand, and the best way to see this is with a Jeep tour. Be sure to ask for Eduardo! There can be no better guide!

Amazing tour. Filipe our tour guide spoke perfect English + knew all the spots + kept our 8 year old totally entertained. This is by jeep so you go on all these backroads to see this incredible place in ways that your buses or cars cannot do.

Miguel was great, managed to get our family of 7, including three children into the jeep safely with child appropriate seats. He was careful to ensure we were all buckled in before driving, which took a little patience each time we got out.
His stories about the island were informative and entertaining. And he was also generous with his time.
Thank you

Jose was our excellent guide and driver! We had arrived that morning, so this was our first adventure. I would highly recommend this tour to help get acclimated to the island. We enjoyed Jose sharing his wealth of knowledge and love of the Azores. We had a really foggy day so the views from the rim of Sete Cidades were nonexistent. Jose did not disappoint! He knew all the back roads through pastures and took us down to the bottom of the caldera. We walked and drove along the blue lake and the green lake. He showed us and told us about the tunnel that was dug from the shoreline to the lake. We drove on the ocean shoreline, went to the thermal swimming area and walked along the ancient old volcano lava and pumus. Excellent tour!

I can't say enough about our tour with Felipe. He was knowledge, friendly and a wonderful guide. He knows his island and was eager to share it with our small group. Felipe, if you are reading this I want to thank you for a wonderful day. And by the way, we will always remember the cows and will retell that funny story over and over!!
Thanks again

We really enjoyed this trip with our guide Mariano. He went into so much detail about the islands history and what was native, endemic and invasive to the island. Nothing was too much trouble for him. I would definitely recommend this trip!

Margarida is the most AMAZING guide. She showed us around the island on 2 days. She imparted some of her vast wisdom on us, teaching us about the geology, flora, history, and pop culture of the island. She even helped us choose our wedding spot! And surprised us with champagne to celebrate!
We felt like royalty, riding past hikers and accessing unique viewpoints in the Jeep. I cannot wait to visit the island again and will absolutely ask for Margarida again!

Delfim was the best tour guide! We had a super fun time. He showed us the best spots and was super nice. We would not have been able to reach these spots with a normal car or know about the spots on our own. He had a lot of background knowledge he was telling us about and shared a lot of recommendations with us. We highly recommend the tour!

I went on a tour 2 weeks ago and was picked up from the hospital at 2 and back at hotel at 5 is it possible to do this trip this week with me and my friend.

We have 5 adults who will be arriving by cruise ship on Saturday, 5/4 at 10 am and departing island at 5 pm. Do you have a tour that could accommodate all of us and would be able to pick us at at cruise port and drop off back at ship in plenty of time to depart by 5 pm.
Written April 11, 2019
We were picked up at the port and our half day tour was finished by 1:30. Our guide was excellent and very knowledgeable. We had enough time to enjoy a wonderful lunch that the guide recommended, called Taverna Acor. That was the best tour that we had on cruise!

We actually confirmed the 8-hour private tour in 4x4 on 5/10/19 for 4 people. However, we want to back at the cruise ship (Princess Emerald) by 2pm...so maybe only 4-6 hours. We will still pay for 8 hours. Maybe pick up at the cruise ship at 9am but back around 2pm. But, we also do not want to go WAY off road - we would like a more mainstream private tour that just shows us the countryside, learn about the area and have lunch out. Is that okay? Is the Jeep enclosed? We have 4 people. Gayle Cagianut You can contact me at text at 509-671-3760 or Facebook messenger. Thank you!
