Recommended tour! - António (Tony) is an awesome guide. There were five of us in the van, which António drove for the day-long tour. He switched between English and Portuguese. He’s very engaging and a fountain of information and answered all my questions. We packed a lot in and got great insight into Terceira Island’s history, geography and geology.
