Editor’s take Roman Antonov · 10 best Terceira island tours, choice 6 of 10
I'd book this if you want a shorter trip with cheese tasting. The van tour takes 3 hours. Adult tickets start at €40. You travel with a guide in an air-conditioned van.
I'd take 10:00 to keep the afternoon free. You can also start at 14:00. The route reaches São Mateus before the cheese tasting. Biscoitos' pools are the final stop.
Pickup and drop-off are included. Groups take up to sixteen people. Cancel at least 24 hours before departure for a full refund.
