Review of Tripix

We booked a day tour with Rai of the Secret Lagoon...

We booked a day tour with Rai of the Secret Lagoons and Caves on Pico. We didn't really know what to expect, but we had such a fantastic time. It was our only day on Pico, and Rai helped us make the most of it!

Tripix were flexible to meet our requirements, so we were lucky enough to be able to tag a trip to the vineyards onto the end of the day and ended up with a much needed wine-tasting after exploring a hidden, mystery cave.

We had assumed, wrongly it turns out, that we would go to a tourist attraction with a guide who would show us the first few hundred meters of a large cave, and that would be that. Instead, we donned a rather fetching orange suit and entered a cave which few have entered. It's location is not well-known and Tripix are keen to keep it that way!

Rai was an excellent, enthusiastic and knowledgable guide. We had a fantastic lunch in Sao Roque after visiting the Lagoons (which were beautiful) and getting to know Pico. We ended the day at the vineyards and headed to a local producer who happened to be having a tasting on that day - such lovely wine! We ended up taking a few bottles home with us...

If you want to see Pico and enjoy an adventure, we could not recommend a better way to do it than with Rai and Tripix!
