Fab day

Our host Samuel Rego provided us with one of the most informative days we have ever had. We had a small group (4) he allowed us to do our own thing at various stops and kept us on time. We saw more than expected and were informed on many unexpected things about the island. We saw our kunch being taken out of the volcano cook spot and then had a hearty lunch at the restaurant with unlimited food and beverages
All in All make sure to book with Sam's company Green Corner if you visit Ponta Delgado in the Azores
Knowledgeable & personable!

We had two great tours (one 'solo' to Furnas and east, one w/ 3 other random couples to Sete Cidades) with Samuel Rego of Greencorner Tours, who grew up on Sao Miguel. Not only knowledgeable he is a great guy to spend a day with, speaking excellent English and a good conversationalist. He was also a good driver, no small thing with mountainous roads. We would highly recommend seeing Sao Miguel with Sam!

An amazing tour with a very skilled, kind and patient guide who gave us plenty of information about nature, history, geology and culture of the places. I strongly advise a tour with Sam.
