Impecable
Mucho mejor de lo que imaginaba. Lo de Ponta Delgada fue el momento del día. Lo de guía certificado en portugués es un acierto. Se ve que el guía elige bien qué contar, nunca se hizo pesado. Se respetó al minuto el horario de regreso. Si están por Ponta Delgada, no se lo pierdan.

Bien, con detalles
Nos gustó bastante, con un par de detalles menores. No teníamos idea de la historia de Ponta Delgada. El precio de las bebidas en el lugar es exagerado. Lo recomendaría igual.

Cumplió, aunque esperaba un poco más por el precio. No es lo más barato, pero se justifica. Nos tocó un día despejado en Rota das Aldeias y fue una suerte enorme. El degustación de Fofa, dulce local llegó justo cuando lo necesitábamos. El horario de regreso se estiró casi una hora más de lo previsto.

Very good
A good pick if it is your first time in Ponta Delgada. No experience needed, they brief you beforehand. The certified portuguese guide was well thought out. A bit more free time at the end would have helped.

Good experience, with one thing worth knowing beforehand. We had enough time at Ponta Delgada to really enjoy it. They emailed all the details the day before, very clear. Not the cheapest, but justified. Only gripe: the group was a bit larger than we expected.

Excelente do início ao fim. Usamos degustação de Fofa, doce local o tempo todo e funcionou perfeitamente. A parada em Ponta Delgada foi o que mais gostamos. Das melhores coisas que contratamos pela internet.
