One of the main reasons we chose this tour was its promise of a small group experience. As it turned out, the group couldn’t have been smaller—we were the only participants that day! To our delight, it unexpectedly became a private tour. Our guide, a young lady named Madalena, was absolutely wonderful. She shared fascinating insights into the island’s history and tailored the schedule to suit our pace and interests, since it was just the two of us. The weather was perfect, and we came away having seen and learned so much. We had an amazing time and would highly recommend this tour!

We found this to be a superb way to see the island. We were lucky to have Fabi as our guide who shared much of the history and culture of the island with us. She adapted the tour to suit our interests and the weather which can sometimes unavoidably remove some options. We were able to discover some hidden gems which alone with a hire car we could never have hoped to find.

We did the contracted tour by phone overnight and we didn’t know very well that we would meet (if we were few or many, by minibus...): what we found was the guide Paulo Machado who walked us proudly of his island throughout the day, with accurate explanations and great friendliness. It was a fantastic day and a comfortable way to get to know the whole island.

Madalena was a superb guide. She was very kind and thoughtful and taught us much about the history, culture and politics of Terceira. Her passion for the island really shone through. We both thoroughly enjoyed the tour and learned a lot from it. Many thanks.

Madelena was a wonderful host! She is kind, knowledgeable and made our tour relaxing and amazing! My husband truly enjoyed sharing history and life experiences with her as he is Portuguese.

Patricia was an excellent driver/tour guide! We saw and learned so much about this fabulous island, its history and a little gossip to make it even more interesting. My only regret is we couldn’t stay to see the neighbourhood bull fighting! Hope you offer it next time as it sounds like a great way to experience something uniquely local.

Terceira Island Full Day Tour, organized by Spot Tourism Activities, is a pleasant experience. Our guide, Abel, is very insightful and provides information about nature and cultural activities on Terceira Island. The program is entirely fulfilled in a professional but also relaxed way. Our guide also picked up a cozy local restaurant where we had a nice fish meal.

We love it! The Paulo Machado is an excellent Guide and the visit is super complete! I recommend to those who have little time on the island, as it covers all the essential points in very short time.

Ruiz is an incredible guide. He knows so much about his island. The history, the local traditions and festivals. The views were beautiful. It was an all around incredible tour!

Our SPOTTOURS guide Pedro Silva collected our 5-person group at the airport, squired us around Terceira for 4.5 days, then delivered us to the airport for our return flights to Toronto. Pedro was always on time, never rushed us, lost sleep, I'm sure, with our late dinners, switched activities without a hitch when necessary, was always in good humour (not easy with my sense of humour) and overall showed us a great time!
