I Love Faial - We were absolutely thrilled with this tour. Informative and full of background information, we saw so much and learned so much about this beautiful island in just one day. The guide was incredibly friendly and clearly loves his island – you could tell with every word he spoke. Thank you so much, and we highly recommend this tour to everyone.

Faial Island - The visit to the island of Faial made in the company of Ramiro proved fantastic. The historical knowledge, cultural and small curiosities that Ramiro transmitted, allowed to have a fantastic day. Thank you Ramiro

Customized off season tour - Ramiro Paz was extremely knowledgeable of all historical, environmental and cultural on Faial and other Azores Ishls. I opted to skip some of Horta local spots that I had already hiked. Ramiro was able show me locales where my great grand parents came from 165 years ago. The recent volcanic area of Capelinhos was fascinating. The museum is also a treasure. The weather was, as I expected for, off season and some views not attained but still the tour was very enjoyable. Thank you Ramiro. I shall return for future visits.

A Day in Faial - We had a wonderful day seeing the sights of Faial with Ramiro Paz. It’s a beautiful place and he knows every nook and cranny of it. His love of the island is obvious and by the end of this tour, you will love it too. He is kind, personable and knowledgeable, everything you want in a tour guide. We took a lot of tours in the. Azores and this was one of the best.

Great, especially if you're only short on Fajal - Ramiro made the tour very personal. He showed us ‘his’ island from different sides. One sprayed his love for the Azores, Fajal and nature. We also had people with us who do not understand English and so he always left time to translate what was said. At the typical lunch, the group also had time to get to know each other. We were lucky and the constellation was a great fit. Ramiro has a great knowledge, and also incorporates personal anecdotes. Since we stayed on Fajal only for 2 nights, this trip was perfect for us to see most of the island in the short time.

Exciting experience - Hi Ramiro, although a few months late we remember you with great pleasure. We greatly enjoyed the guided tour in your company on Faial Island. You have illustrated very well the characteristics of the island with synthesis skills and with your enthusiasm and we are very happy to have shared these emotions with you also thanks to your professionalism. We will report all this to our friends interested in the Azores Islands and hope to see you again in our next trip, thank you again and wish you and your family luck.
