Terrific Terceira Trip! - Thanks so much to our tour guide Dora, who provided us with an excellent tour of Terceira. Not only did we experience the beautiful scenery - she also marked a map for us so we revisit where we stopped! We felt very well taken care off. And thanks also to the two Antonios, who opened their home and made us feel very welcome, and provided a fabulous Azorean lunch.

Terrific Day in Beautiful Terceira. - Antonio was a great tour guide. He showed us many beautiful and memorable parts of the island. He was also an amazing host. He fed us an amazing meal, which of course included Wine and Moonshine. And then, we went to a local winery where we received a tour and sampled wines from the winery.

Great day to spend time touring around the island in a jeep. - We had the best guide and we thoroughly enjoyed his tour. He took us places with his jeep that cars wouldn’t be able to go. He was fun and very friendly.

Terceira Island Tour - My husband and I booked this excursion in September 2023. From start to finish it was a blast. Pickup was easy, our guide Carolina was very knowledgeable and friendly, and this was an efficient way to do a full trip around the island. Travelling in a 4x4 Jeep the entire time, this trip includes a stop at Mount Brazil, next to an active military base in a historic site, overlooking the city of Angra do Heroismo. We drove in the countryside to various viewpoints, through the old American Air Force Base, and through a nature preserve that features solely species endemic to the Azores. We stopped for lunch to enjoy some local wine, a homemade traditional stew with a variety of breads and cheeses, and some moonshine at the end. Lastly, we stopped at the Materramenta winery for a tour and tasting experience. This tour was an amazing experience and we recommend it to anyone who wants to get an overview of all of Terceira. Note that we did find the title slightly misleading, as it gives off a “booze cruise” kind of vibe, but it is a small group tour touching on many different aspects of life on Terceira.

Wonderful day. Highly recommended. - You've already seen numerous pictures of beautiful Terciera. This trip is a great way to experience the real thing. So here's a picture of a "Terceira Traffic Jam". :) Carolina was a wonder guide. Riding with her felt like a friend showing us her wonderful island and culture (and the food and drinks were good too).

A Tour Not to be Missed! - We cannot say enough good things about this tour and Pro Island Tours! Antonio was an amazing guide who took us places we never would have seen on other tours. We saw breathtaking views, natural pools, beautiful sea views, historical buildings, and had a fantastic lunch! Antonio made us feel right at home and we loved the tour so much we took a second tour with him the next day. We also attend a running of the bulls in his village. We will be back!

Caramel Anish - We have been to the island many times but young Antonio shared some unknown deep wood locations. The whole team was very professional and served us a great lunch with caramel Anish made by Antonio Sr. Highly recommend!!!!

Tour beyond expectations - This was a stunning trip. We had reviewed previous comments but in reality this surpassed all expectations. Antonio took such care of us. He's extremely knowledgeable, funny and adores his beautiful surroundings. The pride he has in Terceira is evident during every second of this tour. It was such a memorable experience for us and we'll be recommending this to anyone who is lucky enough to visit Terceira.
