Manuel was an amazing and knowledgeable guide that showed us a great time on this tour! He picked us up in Ponta Delgada and then we went to the Cha Gorreana tea plantation and Furnas. My girlfriend and I were looking for an engaging excursion with lunch (the local stew) from the Fumaroles in Furnas. We loved the tour and the food! Manuel was so helpful, as he also gave us dinner recommendations for that night and even took us to the airport a ew days later!

We are a couple from Lisbon. Never been before to Azores. We stayed on VIP Executive Hotel in São Miguel island between 16th and 19th of January.
Rest of the islands, get to know them later perhaps.
We definitely recommend Big Blue Adventures as they seem to have large experience on this field. We recommend their services as they came in with a lot of details about the surrounding areas among some history facts that otherwise if we were solo, we wouldn't get to know them. And yes, these are interesting facts that makes your experience and their services entirely legit. Adds some sort of boost to your whole travel experience and takes it to a next level. If we can put it this way.
Services we went for: Half Day Sete Cidades Tour / Full Day Furnas Tour / Full Day Nordeste Tour.
Some of these services were acquired on a promotional package and for that purpose names might differ a little bit.
You keep up Big Blue Adventures and a great hug for André for all his dedication and patience with us.
