Best tour of Terceira!

Published on Nov, 2024

I was so lucky to find this excellent archeology tour of Terceira with Juca of Azores Expeditions. He is a learned, fun, and deeply generous-hearted guide. The pictographs and rock carvings in the megalithic complex are not to be missed! Highly recommended!

Interesting tour, recommended!

Published on Aug, 2024

We had a wonderful Archeology day tour with our guide Juca. It was very interesting to hear a different story about the history of these beautiful islands.

Incredible Archaeological Tour!

Published on Aug, 2024

Juca is a wonderful storyteller. This tour was as if you were watching a Netflix documentary about stone age history, but were able to ask questions to the director in real-time. Juca is an archaeologist and geologist who works with the University. He takes you to places where there is clear evidence that there were a people who lived on the island of Terceira before the Portuguese had found it. He will show you things like stone shelters, caves, places for ritual ceremonies, water gathering devices. It is truly incredible. I'll note that he acknowledges when something isn't certain. He'll never tell you what to believe, but he gives evidence and lets you come to your own conclusion. The lunch meal was also one of the best meals my wife and I had on the island. Take this tour!!

Best tour in Azores

Published on Apr, 2024

Guca was great really friendly on time very knowledgeable felt like a local by the time I was done showed us everything we wanted to see and more

Fantastic adventure!

Published on Mar, 2024

This was a fantastic tour to so many places we would never, never have discovered on our own. Really thought provoking about pre-Portuguese activity on the island! There were great opportunities for photos. Juca took some of them for us and some of us and showed us some photo tricks too. He is really knowledgeable and says if he doesn’t know something so you have a lot of confidence in what he does say. He is very personable and funny, very helpful and flexible with accommodating our varied comfort levels. We highly recommend him and will book another tour the next time we’re here!
