Terceira Island Whale Watching and Jeep Tour

2. Terceira Island Whale Watching and Jeep Tour

Observe magnificent whales in their natural habitat before exploring Terceira Island, either in a shared tour or with your own private group. This trip is made more comfortable by traveling in jeeps that are perfect for taking you off the beaten track so you can see the very best of what the island has to offer. This tour is ideal for those who want a bit of island exploration in the most radical way. Routes are taken along secondary roads, which are not part of usual tourist itineraries. They are narrow, beaten paths and used mostly by farmers - you'll get to see the real Terceira. The roads are lined either by blue hydrangeas (hortensia), large trees or rough walls of basaltic stone. They lead to breathtaking views and you should take the time to stop along the way, step out of the jeep and take a closer look at all the magical nature that surrounds you.

What people are saying about Angra do Heroísmo

Pedro was a wealth of knowledge and provided us an incredibly interesting and fun tour of Terceira. He was very accommodating and a pleasure to spend the day with. Highly recommend this tour for those who want to get to know all the ins and outs of the island, its culture, and its fascinating history.

Ruben was a really enthusiastic, kind, patient local guide who showed us the really best and hidden treasures of the beautiful Terceira. Going through the woods with the Land Rover was fitting into a fairy tale. Great experience, truly recommended, 5+1 star :)

Our guide Pedro was great. It was not the greatest of days with weather showing rain. He had us cover the important highlights nicely - and although cold & windy we made the most of it! Highly recommended the trip!

Everything as scheduled and an excellent opportunity to get to know Terceira better.

Fantastic experience. Great bikes and most importantly James was a true pleasure!!
