Perfect day and very relaxed tour. The uniqueness of the craftsmanship was very much a regional, local experience. We were welcomed into the businesses that were a true extension of their homes. This tour was very personalized and not a cookie cutter tour. If you go Pico, this tour is a must!

An incredible day with a fantastic guide- Lucia was enthusiastically infectious as she took us round Pico. It was not the best of days up on the mountain, but then we also saw the changes which brings its own beauty- and plenty of animals who she knew so well. We had expected a dry, volcanic landscape and were bowled over with the diversity of this island. We had a beautiful lunch with Pico wine. Although the jeep had broken down and we went in a van, I don't think we missed anything too major because of it. Lucia was a careful driver. The lava cave was a first for us. My only regret is that I forgot the 20 euros in my purse was for the pick up at sao roque so I had no tip money for her. A day of surprises, much joy and lasting memories. Thank you Lucia.

We had such a great time on this whale and dolphin watching tour. We thoroughly enjoyed riding in the zodiacs. It was especially thrilling when it went extra fast because you knew we were about to see something wonderful, and we did! Multiple times! We saw 9 different sperm whales and several different pods of spotted and bottle-nose dolphin. Our captain was great, as was Maria, our guide. She was very knowledgeable, and you could tell she had a true passion for these magnificent animals. This trip was a definite highlight in Pico!
