The most beautiful Island! Just like a fairy land! - Great tour, highly recommend! Our tour guide was Ricardo and he did a great job of allowing us the right amount of time at each stop and working in some extra stops as well!

Outstanding visit. Highly recommend. - Our driver/guide Andre was waiting for us, our name held high on his sign, as we walked out of cruise dock exit….. just me and the mrs. On our own private tour! Great start and it just got better as day went on. Great conversation with Andre about history, culture, politics and details about the Azores. Saw waterfalls, farms, villages, photo viewpoints, stopped for quick bite to eat, a wonderful, no rush tour. Very informative…no question went unanswered.. a gracious host and fine guide. Outstanding.

Mr Jorge Dias punta delgado - Jorge was the absolute best guide. He listened to our interests and took us to see the most beautiful spots. He was a wealth of knowledge. We loved our tour with him. He works for or rather owns Keep Walking Azores. He provided us with our best excursion ever. Joyce Carter

Expert guide to take you off the beaten track - We booked the waterfall tour with Jorge. It was exactly what we were looking for, as it gave us the opportunity to see some of the less touristy areas of the island. All of the places we visited were places that we would never have found ourselves. Jorge was friendly, chatty without being overbearing, and has plenty of local knowledge to answer all of your questions. I would recommend doing a trip with Jorge early in your visit to the Azores, as his insight into the islands will allow you to better plan the rest of your trip.
