    3. Half-day 4x4 island tour of Terceira

    4.9· 57 reviews· 4 hours

    Four hours, 4x4 jeep — explore Terceira's scenic landscapes with off-road access to stunning vistas and unique natural sites.

    We had a wonderful private tour that allowed our guide to tailor our stops based on our interests. Without a car, we were still able to see many highlights of the island, making a car unnecessary. Our guide was engaging and addressed all our questions about island life. I wish we had opted for a full day because the 4 hours flew by. I highly recommend this tour.F7887JMjessical
