  Amazing experience. Showed us around sete cicades did some stops along the way. Due to the bad weather for the afternoon and days after, Azores outdoor activities contacted us to move our excursion to a earlier time. Which worked out great!

  My favorite activity I did while I was on the island. Our guide was amazing and super funny. The combination of on-road and off-roading made the experience unique and was able to get to view points a regular car wouldn’t be able to get to! Plus, who doesn’t love driving a quad through the narrow, hydrangea lined streets?!

  Our guide Pedro showed us many sights including those off the beaten path as our buggy was able to go wherever needed. Pedro took the time to explain historical significance of the areas visited including the abandoned mineral water bottling plant at the start of Ribeiro Grande - the drive down & back up was exhilarating!!
