Great tour of the volcanoes! Our tour guide was knowledgeable and fun. She took her time and make sure we didn't feel rushed. She even took extra time for us to see certain sights. Thank you so much!

Cecilia gave us a lovely tour and gave us a lot of information about the volcanic formations and the caves. She was able to to answer al our questions! We had an amazing afternoon in the caves!

A pleasant way to visit part of the island in small numbers with several stops and visits to gruta do natal and algar do carveo. The guide James is very interesting and caring, thank you.

One of the caves inside the volcano, beautiful, with a lagoon inside, of a spectacular blue color, it is very worthwhile

Our guide, Carlos, was super friendly and knowledgeable. We were happy that we booked!
