Gillsley cruise 25 - Very informative and the view is awesome , Telmo was an awesome guide and slowed for a more self paced tour. He stopped anytime we wanted to take pictures. I highly recommend Telmo!

We Felt Like We Were Visiting Family - We were overwhelmed by the personal and friendly experience that we had yesterday. We felt like we were visiting with family. The owner of the company took us on a personalized tour of all the things that you would never see on one of those commercial type tours. The weather was not great but we made the best of it. We saw such beautiful landscape, ate flowers. Yes we ate flowers lol we saw cows, tall grass as green as could be blowing in the wind and we went on trails and saw things that we never would’ve seen if we had been on one of those bus tours. We cannot recommend this tour and this tour company highly enough. We can’t wait to plan our next trip to come back. You won’t be disappointed if you go on this tour.

Our first visit to the Azores - This was a fantastic trip. There were just the 2 of us and so we had a personal tour. Our guide was knowledgeable and made everything interesting. I would not hesitate to recommend this trip.

Highest recommendation for T4W and our guide, Mariano! - Our tour was amazing! Our guide, Mariano, was absolutely fabulous! I booked this on our own as a shore excursion from a cruise. Mariano was at the cruise terminal about 15 minutes early from our pre-established meeting time. A private 4wd jeep tour was definitely the way to go here! We could go places tour buses couldn't. Mariano was extremely informative. He gave us so much information about the Azores and Sao Miguel Island and answered any questions we had. On a half-day tour, you do not have time to see the entire island, so we focused on the west side and Sete Cidades. We were not disappointed, and the scenery was just beautiful! We highly recommend T4W and Mariano and would absolutely book them again the next time we are in Ponta Delgada.

Small company with big service! - We set up a trip to see Sete Cidades as an excursion off of our cruise. Our guide/driver Delfin came to the cruiseport in a Toyota 4 x 4, which was perfect and absolutely necessary for our half day outing. Delfin quickly felt more like a friend and was full of information and stories about the area. He had fallen in love and moved from mainland Portugal about a decade earlier. We very much enjoyed him and he knew all of the best spots for photo stops and how to avoid the bus tours. We also had a nice coffee and pastry break in a small town near the lakes that turned into a tasty highlight. I look forward to returning some day to the Azores and expect to use this company again.

Best Day Ever! - We had a basically private tour with Margareda, and she was phenomenal! It was the best excursion of our 25 day cruise. She took us of the beaten path to explore the micro climates of Ponta Delgada. She was passionate about all the Azores has to offer. I highly recommend booking with T4W tours. It was the absolute best day! Afterwards, she dropped us off in the city center to enjoy an authentic Portuguese lunch.

Awesome tour! - We LOVED this half day private tour with Mariano! Pickup was smooth from the cruise terminal and we got to personalize our day based on our interests and the weather. Mariano is so knowledgeable about not only the history but also all the natural history of the island too. Learning about the different plants and types of landscaping was fascinating. Having the private 4WD vehicle is key because you can go off the beaten track into areas that have amazing views a large bus could never get to. I was worried the “off roading” was going to be too rough or bumpy but it wasn’t too bad! We had a great time and I would recommend this if you have a day in port here! Thank you again Mariano!!!
