What our customers say

Beautiful walk around the Caldeira

It was a beautiful tour of the Caldeira. It is a relatively easy walk and as it was a beautiful sunny day we were able to have different perspectives of the crater and the neighboring islands. We are a family of 6 and this was definitely a special day for us. Guide Ramiro was very patient, fun and taught us about the vegetation and culture of the Azores. 100% recommended!!

Amazing experience

I had an amazing experience doing the Caldeira hike with Ramiro. He was a great guide from start to finish, was very insightful and helped us navigate the terrain as we were not very experienced hikers. I would definitely recommend it to everyone, amazing experience with breathtaking views.

A walk through the clouds

Ramiro is the best guide for your caldera experience. He accommodated us as we had different hiking abilities. We loved his perspective of the island, the plants and trees.

You won't find a better guide. Thank you so much for our memories together.
