I stayed in San Miguel a week and wanted to explore the island as much as I could. I chose three full day trips (Sete Cidades, Furnas & Nordeste) and I must admit that I saw the most beautiful places around the island. He is an excellent guide, companion, entertainer and very knowledgeable. He tells you a lot of interesting information from the history, culture and local specifics. During the tours, you will taste the local cuisine. We stopped in many places with the picturesque views.…

I do not even know where to begin. My husband and I chose to visit Ponta Delgada in January to visit our friends who winter there. I was told to schedule a tour with Pedro since he was the best. We did and it was one of our best decisions of our trip. Pedro's love and knowledge of the island makes anyone on his tour feel like family. His tours are comprehensive and are always supplemented by his great sense of humor. Of course it does not hurt that we were touring one of the most beautiful countries we have seen. In conclusion if you want a tour that is worth the money please schedule with Pedro. Every minute spent with him left us with memories of a lifetime. Immediately after the conclusion of the tour we scheduled another full day tour. Thank you Pedro …

I tagged along on a tour with this company because a friend had reserved 4 spaces with them and I got to be one of the 4. I liked that we were able to designate a later pick-up time than most tours offered (according to OUR schedule) and the guide (who apparently was Pedro's nephew) did a great and very conscientious job despite struggling a bit with his English. I have done tour guide work myself so I know how tiring and demanding it can be. Be sure to TIP your driver/guide! They've worked hard to make your day memorable.…

Pedro and his colleague Tiago are extraordinary tour guides! I arranged through email with Pedro to do a private tour of Sete Cidades at sunset for a wedding proposal. The day the tour was supposed to happen had terrible weather and he made time to come to the hotel to inform me that it would work out better the next day. Boy was he right! He took us on a beautiful tour explaining the island and timed it perfectly for my friend to propose! It turned out absolutely perfect! He is professional and spoke perfect English for a bunch of Americans that knew no Portuguese. After the tour was complete we had dinner reservations which he got us to in time and then kindly waited for us to finish so he could drive us back to the hotel. I highly recommend him for any tour of the island he is absolutely the best!!!!…

Pedro was the best! He is knowledgeable, friendly, and great at what he does! We did 3 days of tours with him. These tours were definitely the highlight of our trip. Each tour was carefully planned out. He showed my whole family (8 people) around despite my mother, Avó, and Avô growing up there. He went above and beyond for us (we are a lot to handle). Now we all miss him terribly and can’t wait to go back!…
