Fantastic Way to See the Island!

This was a wonderful way to see the island! Would recommend bringing a raincoat and wearing layers as the weather can be unpredictable (at least in April). Also, don’t forget a swimsuit (and towel!) on the day you visit Furnas (could be either day as they alternate). You’ll see some incredible views and learn a lot about Sao Miguel!

Each day was a beautiful, magical day in and of itself. Be prepared for any type of weather, but overall, they will adjust as necessary and make it the most pleasant, amazing experience that will make your trip unforgettable. Being able to see all that we saw and hearing the stories with this tour is what makes it so special. I had two different tour guides for my two days, and both were exceptional.

San Miguel: 2 Full-Day Pack - West & East Island Highlights Tour (Azores) I took this tour in April 2025 in San Miguel Island and I had a very nice time. Our local guide and driver Andrea from I go Azores was amazing and very knowledgeable about her island! The weather was very bad during our first day (fog and rain). We could not see much and the company offered us an additional free evening 4-hour tour to the thermal pools! On our next day we could enjoy the beautiful views (Parque Natural da Ribeira dos Caldeiroes with waterfalls, Furnas Lake, Parque das Caldeiras). We visited a pineapple plantation and a tea factory with a nice park. They provided us with tasty lunches. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting San Miguel Island.

Make sure to get a real tourist guide who will explain everything and has a great knowledge about the place. Our guide/ driver served more than a driver than a guide. She just dropped us off in each place and waited for us inside the van. On our first day, we waited until past 9am, I called the tour operator and he assumed that we are going to start our tour on March 17 and 18 instead of March 16 and 17. Before our tour started, he sent me a message if I could adjust the date and I said, I will agree if I am going to be reissued with a new ticket and he never acknowledged the conversation nor messaged me back again. On the day of the tour after waiting until past 9am, I called him and he said" I thought you agreed to change the date and I am not Viator, I am the tour operator and I don't issue the ticket". I insisted that i want to start my tour on that day March 16 so he arranged for a guide that arrived almost 10am. Another issue that was resolved was the paid lunches for 2 days. The guide was insisting that lunch is not included while in fact it is clearly written in the voucher. She was insisting that all the tickets are issued like that. I messaged the tour operator that I paid the amount with lunch included and he responded that it was verified and yes, lunch is included and I was reimbursed from the charges I paid on the first day. I don't understand why i have to go to all these hustles instead of starting my day in a good spirit.First day, it would have been better if it wasn't raining on and off. The second day was better with the sun shining and there was only sporadic rain in the afternoon.
Great tour of whole Island, breathtaking views, and insight into local culture and cuisine

My husband and I enjoyed two wonderful days with Andrea who was born and raised on the Island, a Lady full of knowledge. She was so intent on offering the best opportunity to see everything and she worked her route to allow for the change of weather. Highly recommend this tour and opportunity to see one end of the Island one day and then the next day the opposite end. Breathtaking views! We included the meals in our tour and were happy we did so, local cuisine and a chance to have great conversations with fellow tourists and Andrea.
