Nilton was very attentive and careful, he kept the group at the right pace. We felt safe the whole time. Thank you for this fantastic experience.Posted on Passport64964257168Verified Great experience We really enjoyed the hike with Steffi. She's a dedicated guide who adapts the hiking tempo to the group and gives the right instructions for a safe trip up and down. She also knows a lot about the island and the volcano, so apart from the sportive activity, we also learned new things! The view from the top accompanied with the tea and brownies, was unforgettable. We would really recommend to hike the Pico volcano with Steffi for a great day, hopefully also in the sun with very beautiful sights at the top!Posted on Emma ToesVerified A great day out Amazing day - Steffi and Milton were great guides, very knowledgeable about the area and friendly. We were lucky with the weather and had amazing viewsPosted on Ab CVerified Pico mountain hike I really enjoyed hiking Pico mountain with Steffi, she is a great guide! Professional, funny, very thoughtful to everybody in our group, sharing lot of interesting facts about Azores. Thank you, it was a great experience! :)Posted on telmaferVerified Visit to lava caves We could not do our kayak tour, but we were offered a walk through the lava caves, as well as a whale guard post and it was very worth it! The guide João was very friendly and we got to know a lot about the Pico that we didn't know! Thank you!Posted on Julien KVerified Steffi was a very good mountain guide for the Pico Steffi was a very good guide. She has always been considerate of the group and even brought brownies and tea for lunch.Posted on ElenaVerified Only for hiking friends! Steffi and Nilton were fantastic, during the briefing and the breaks of the climb they explained everything about how to get up and down, and what to pay attention to. At lunch we were also offered hot tea and homemade brownies.Steffi helped me a lot, even though I was clearly not at the level of the rest of the group, without making me feel bad, even in the moments when I wanted to quit. I'm very grateful.Having guides like them was crucial. That said, it is a unique experience, beautiful but tough, so I recommend it only for those who are really fit and used to doing this type of hiking, because Pico is definitely not just any trekking! Trust the rock!
