About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 895CarolC0 contributionsBest tour company in Terceira according to our hotel and we agree!!Four of us took the cooking class with Antonio and Lindsay and it was fantastic!! We learned so much and laughed so hard! Antonio picked us up at our hotel and whisked us to his beautiful property. He provided drinks and delicious appetizers while our food cooked. The meal itself was the best we had on the Island. On the way back he showed us a couple of sites that were true hidden gems. Our day with Antonio was truly a highlight in our trip to the Azores!Written 25 September 2024
- BoardingPass4022600 contributionsAmazing tour of Terceira!Such an amazing tour! We were able to see so many sights on the island in just one day. Antonio made sure we had a great experience. I would highly recommend this tour.Written 21 September 2024
- Curious993560 contributionsVacationWe had the best time on this tour, the sites and sounds and the lunch was fantastic thanks Antonio for a great experience I would highly recommend this above any other tour on the islandWritten 27 July 2024
- lytaniam20180 contributionsThe best value in Terceira & so much fun!THIS IS THE BEST VALUE I think in Terceira. We saw the top three things...and had an AWESOME guide. She was local, born on island, and knew all the history of the caves, volcanoes, the haunted forest, the furnas,.... all of it. We had such a blast and it was the best 3 hours for $100 total for two people. Def tip the tour guide...Written 23 July 2024
- vincentnP1830KG0 contributionsFun afternoon!Carolina was an excellent tour guide! Extremely knowledgeable and friendly! We learned a lot about the cave formations, the natural history of the Azores, and local events! Highly recommend!Written 14 July 2024
- jasperd9740 contributionsOutstanding tour in a jeep of the culture and nature of Terceira with a very nice guide!The tour with a jeep on the beautiful island, Terceira, was an outstanding experience. Together with the very nice guide Karolinq, we explored different (hidden) gems and made a lot of fun! The guide had an answer for every question we had, so we learned a lot about the interesting culture and got the best views on the island. At noon we enjoyed homemade local food with an incredible panorama. Also, the staff was very generous with the wine and we had the chance to experience the famous moonshine. To conclude, we had a great time and would recommend it to everyone that wants to explore the culture and nature of Terceira with a lot of flexibility, so you can deside together with the guide how you want to spend your day!Written 6 July 2024
- garrettg7490 contributionsFishing tourMy family and I recently enjoyed an incredible fishing tour with Antonio. We caught over a dozen fish, which Antonio cleaned for us. The boat provided a very private and comfortable setting, and the captain took excellent care of us. We didn't even have to bait our hooks unless we wanted to. The views during the journey to and from the fishing spots were awesome. After our fishing excursion, Antonio drove us to the north side of the island, where he prepared a feast with our catch. We enjoyed a delightful spread of appetizers, a main course, and all the drinks we wanted. The dining area was beautiful and added to the overall experience. We are definitely planning to book another trip soon.Written 25 June 2024
- W6187QJjackieh0 contributionsAmazing placeBeautiful sight in Terceira, make sure you visit this one. Didn't want to rent a car so booked this tour, lovely guide Carolina who was so knowledgeable. Beautiful drive to all the sights, countryside, saw a village setting up for a bull running !! Caves are incredible and everything so well maintained for posterityWritten 15 May 2024
- GoPlaces654673200500 contributions5 stars are not enoughPro Island Tours Terceira, ruled by father and son Antonio, is a jewel in the jungle of tour companies. Not only that the 2 tours we made with them (Combo Wale watching/Jeep tour and caves tour) have been very professionally organized and worth every Euro. You get so many information about that beautiful island Terceira without feeling like in a classroom. But what you can't pay with money is the exceptional level of warm, personal service provided by Antonio. The cherry on top of the cake was having lunch together with father and son Antonio on their private estate. In 25 years of frequent traveling we never had such an amazing experience. Natural talents like Antonio are rare in todays travel industry. From the first moment, there was an awesome communication base which turned more and more into a friendship. Starting with handshake and ending with hugs - no more words needed. We have never left a travel destination with so much personal enrichment. No need to mention that we will return to our new friends in Terceira. Last but not least: Only those who think about a german sleeping song for babies in the middle of the christmas cave will ever imagine how much fun we had 😉Written 5 May 2024
- meeagen0 contributionsGreat day to spend time touring around the island in a jeep.We had the best guide and we thoroughly enjoyed his tour. He took us places with his jeep that cars wouldn’t be able to go. He was fun and very friendly.Written 21 February 2024
- JulesEileen0 contributionsVery pleasedGreat communication. Lovely personable host. Fantastic meal in a great environment. Saw the whole island and learned about all sorts of things. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Terceira to check out ProIsland.Written 16 October 2023
- Alexandre D0 contributionsWorth Every Penny!We were limited to only one full day in Terceira, and we were looking for a full tour of the island. Some options were cheaper, but this one had some amazing review and we just decided to tried it, and it worth every cent. While travelling, I often feel difficult when you spend only a week or two to connect with local , to get their perspective on their day to day life, but during this tour, I feel we learnt a lot and I hope that I will find similar experience in my future travel. Also, the communication was quite easy in English, which sometimes is tougher to me as a French Canadian when English is also second language.Written 2 September 2023

Carolina was an excellent tour guide and we did enjoy what we saw. She speaks perfect English and is very knowledgeable about the island. The reason I gave it 3 stars was for the jeep itself. There were 4 adults in the back of the jeep (2 bench seats facing each other) and that turned out to be very uncomfortable. If you were the people in the front or middle seats, you had a good ride and could see outside. The 4 of us in the back could hardly turn around to look out the windows, not to mention how hard it was to get in and out of the back. It would be ok for kids, just not for 4 adults.

My wife and I booked a half day island tour in Antonio’s 4x4 and we are so glad that we did. Antonio was a very competent driver and an excellent guide. We visited places we wouldn’t have seen in our less than stellar rental car. Even though the island is not large there are plenty of great sights and interesting places to visit. We highly recommend booking at least a half day tour. Thank you Antonio!

Had a fantastic time with ProIsland Tour. It was the best way to spend my 7 hour layover on Terceira! António was very helpful, and easily accommodated my airport pick-up, drop-off. He was very knowledgeable - I learned a lot about the island and its history. 10/10 recommend.

Due to being the low season we had the luxury of enjoying a 'private' tour. Our guide was great, an local whom knows all the places to visit. So within a half day we were able so see (almost) all the Islands highlight. Must do!

Antonio was an excellent guide - the island and places we saw couldn’t have been been done by anything other than a 4x4! Took us to some memorable places and was very knowledgeable about the island - fantastic

Antonio, our guide, was terrific. His knowledge of the island was tremendous, but he also knew when to let the island’s beauty do the talking. We saw parts of the island that we never would have seen without the tour. A++

Great way to see the island, that we wouldn’t see if we stayed in the town or rented our own car. We went to tops of hills and back roads and saw a lot of natural beauty. Carolina was our guide and very knowledgeable.
Great day.
Great day.

Hi we are arriving about 7am so wondered if we could get picked up at airport for 9 am 4x4 4 hour tour and then dropped back at hotel when done ( hotel = azoris angra garden). That would mean that our luggage for 4 would have to fit in 4x4. Our checkin is not until 1600 and the do 'store luggage' if we could drop it there if necessay?)
