Enjoyed the afternoon and scenery stunning. Guide knowledgeable and polite. We were lucky we had no low lying cloud which may have restricted our view.

Great trip with Lido Tours - excellent and friendly guide. Curran das Freitas incredibly spectacular. Highly recommended.

We had a great time on the Nun’s Valley tour with our driver Bruno. Just the right amount of time at each of the three stops: Fishing Village, Nun’s Valley viewpoint (top of mountain), and then Nun’s valley itself. Super commentary throughout in different languages, safe and efficient driving of the minibus. Only downside was that on a sunny day there seemed to be a serious lack of air conditioning in the minibus. The temperature inside was uncomfortably hot (no windows to open) and on the winding roads up/down the valley the majority of us were feeling very travel sick by the end.

We had a very good time in Calheta beach resort, the cleanness and service was all professionally done, I would recommend this place to every one, who wants to enjoy a relaxing time on vacation.

The miradors were outstanding. The fishing village was also interesting although fast becoming too built up.

Very relaxed tour. Great guide - nice visit to fishing port followed by wonderful views of nun’s valley. Then dropped down to visit the quiet village and church. Nice small group (8) made more relaxing. Would recommend.
