Honeymoon in the Azores - We booked with Azores connections for our honeymoon. This was our first time using a travel agent and we are very impressed. We booked a few months in advance, with Andy being very flexible over our program, and prompt responses to our questions. We stayed for 5 days on the main island, and we had a wonderful, stress free, experience, with an itinerary that was tailored for us. We got the opportunity for wine tasting, guides around the mountains and lakes, a beekeeping experience and more! We are certain that without Azores connections, we would have missed out on many great opportunities that will now be lifelong memories of ours. Andy gave us the tour personally on one day and was a superb host with lots of knowledge about the history and a very friendly and warm approach to his work. The service was also very flexible on our desires, and when one event was cancelled due to the weather, promptly refunded us. I highly recommend Azores connections for anyone looking to visit the Island(s) and wanting to get a full experience of the island in whatever way you most enjoy.

The Best Private Tour on the Island - This is a must do experience if you come to São Miguel! It is such a great way to see parts of the island with a very knowledgeable and personable guide. Andy was the absolute best! This was by far our favorite experience we had on the island! 1000% book it!

Wonderful and Relaxing - One of the best coordinated and relaxing tours. Andy was great! This was a very nice, low key, personal tour experience. We were not in the mood for rushing and wanted to spend a nice private experience in Furnas. Andy knows everything about the villages and culture. He was engaging at the right level, knew how to get everywhere with ease and since he is British but has lived in Furnas for 9 years, knows the locals, can speak fluently in Portuguese. One of the best overall relaxing and interesting tours I’ve done. Oh and the food was amazing (and gluten free for my celiac Husband).

Perfect guide and tour in the Azores - Perfect tour and guide. We were lucky enough to have Andy (owner of the company) who is extremely knowledgeable, passionate about the island and just plain genuinely friendly. I cannot recommend his service and company enough. They are the only company to use if you are visiting the Azores for a day or for a week or for a lifetime !

Wonderful shore excursion. - Andy picked us up right at the cruise port and we had a great day experiencing some of what the island had to offer. Interesting sites, good food and beautiful scenery. He's a great guide and highly recommend this tour.

Simply exquisite! - Our guide, Andy, was very personable and gave us lots of Azorean history, culture and traditions throughout the day. He drove us up into the mountain (volcano) and dropped us off to have an hour leisurely walk enjoying the beautiful lake. Showed us several thermal activity sites, one in particular where local restaurants cook their food for the day. We went to Terra Nostra for the gorgeous gardens and to enjoy the warm mineral bath and then off to lunch at a great local restaurant Tony’s for a 3 course amazing lunch! One of the best excursions we have experienced - definitely would use him again while visiting the Azores!!

Enjoy the Azores with THIS tour! - Highly...highly...highly recommend this tour!! Andy was professional, full of knowledge, and eager to make this experience everything we were hoping for. We soaked in the thermal spring, drank the local tea, ate the authentic lunch, and left the Azores feeling like we had a new friend. Want to come back and see more soon!

AMAZING EXPERIENCE - We booked Azores Connections to take care of planning our honeymoon and this was one of the events that we booked. We cannot possibly describe how wonderful this experience with Andy was. He took care of everything! He picked us up from our hotel, gave us a private tour of Furnas, the hot springs, the gardens, and gave us our very own water sommelier course. Andy is incredibly knowledgeable about the island, the volcanic activity, the history, etc. This experience is truly a VIP experience and when we come back to the Azores we will be sure to use this company EVERY time.

Amazing visit to Furnas. - We had an amazing day touring S.Miguel with Azores Connections. Andy made the trip very easy in this very popular busy area. From patiently waiting for us while we swam or parking and picking us up. All reservations were booked ahead. Very relaxed and informative day. Thank you. Great memories.

Amazing! - Andy was an incredible tour guide for our tour through furnas. He is very knowledgeable and just a pleasure to spend time with. We saw so much in just one day that we never would have known to see without Andy’s guidance!
