Guidekin's take

A private full day around Terceira at a deliberately slow pace: Monte Brasil, the impérios, the Serra do Cume viewpoint and Praia da Vitória with a local guide, insurance and a small gift.

Lunch is reserved for you but paid on the spot. 4.97 from 37 reviews at €150 per person for 7h–8h.

In our comparison: #12 of 19 in Terceira, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
