An exceptional travel experience
I loved this tour so much. We enjoyed getting a tour of one of the local cheese factories and learning about cheese production and the special Sao Jorge cheese. Then visiting Emmanuel’s cows was such a special treat. It was so incredible to see his love for his animals and to have him share some of his insights and wisdom. Nuno was an excellent tour guide and kindly answered all of our questions about life in Sao Jorge.

Amazing experience with great guides and beautiful cows
This was my favorite thing I did while visiting the Azores. The weather was not good and I ended up being the only one on the tour. I got a personal tour of Sao Jorge (Nuno was a fantastic tour guide!) and then he and Emanuel (the farmer) let me spend as much time with the cows as I wanted. I loved it so much.

Super late cancellation
Cancelled about 20 hours before the tour. No explanation at all. People are limited schedules on vacations and late cancellations with no explanation show a high disrespect for the customer. Wouldn’t do business with this crew
