Beautiful ride around Faial!

Published on Jul, 2024

Luis was such a kind and thoughtful guide! The samba, Saudade, was a joyful ride around Faial. Our day was very special. Luis made sure that the kiddos enjoyed their time, making the trip unique and tailored. Thank you so much.

Faial Will Steal Your Heart

Published on Jul, 2024

Luis is the reason to do this tour- your 1974 fully restored VW ride is the icing on the cake. Luis is a proud local that not only shares the history of his island- but the warmth and local experience. We had the best day in Faial with Luis- and we will book again someday- just to hang with him.
