Our family truly appreciated Goreti's hospitality, energy, and flexibility. She ensured that we had a memorable time and went to great lengths to help us discover some of our families' heritage. Flores is an incredible Island to visit, and she is a top-notch tour guide who enriches a visitor's travel experience. Muito obrigado Goreti!

The tour with Silvio and Gorette was magnificent. The service was excellent, the people very kind and attentive. Flores Island is beautiful. We saw wonderful places, nature in its purest form. Thank you so much, Gorette and Silvio.

Goreti,Was an awesome guide. The weather was foggy and she was concerned about making sure we saw all the beautiful sights of Flores Island. She even offered to bring us back the following day when the weather was clearer. But some areas were foggy at first but we went back. The weather cleared.One stop we made was at the Fajazinha’s water mill that crushed the corn into flour.It was amazing!! The senhora who was working the mill was so sweet.You can tell she loved her job.I thanked her for keeping history alive.During our drive I told Goreti I loved donkeys. She said she had seen 2 in one area. Well we were in luck. We found them.My phone ran out of battery so Goreti took a picture on her phone for me.She went far and beyond to make our venture around the island great.GORETI YOUR AWESOME!!

Goreti was an excellent guide, taking us to the most beautiful viewpoints of the islands (miradouros), to the lakes and the beautiful waterfalls. We were happy to have flexibility and to take our time for the short hikes to the waterfalls or to the lakes.She is also very funny, kind, and informative.We had times when we took pictures with the drone, and Goreti didn't want to get into our pictures, so she went to the car. Again, it was very kind of her.I highly recommend her for the safe drive, for the beautiful points she might take you to, and also for her funny stories.

The company of Silvio and Gorete will make you feel good, you will feel that you have known each other for a long time, they will be like your friends. Smiling and communicative will convey your good mood. Perfect professionals, they give you valuable information and will make your time spent on vacation in Flores more efficient. Decent prices and route reconfigurations as possible. Guidance and reservations for off-island activities, restaurants, hiking and more.

My father grew up in Faial and was born in Flores. Before last year, he had not returned to Faial for 54 years due to coming to the United States at 14 y.o. to find better paying jobs with his family. I promised I would bring him back to see it once I became a nurse. Last year we returned to Faial, and here we are, 2 years later, returning to Faial AND adding Flores into our trip to see where he was actually born. We were slightly nervous to make this trip alone, seeing he does not have any family left on this island like he does in Faial. I found Mystic Tours through Google and the reviews all highly recommended this one. I found myself getting in touch with Goreti Medina. She was speedy with all replies and communication from the start and leading up to our tour. This made me feel as though we would be in good hands and that this person cared to answer any questions we may have on an unfamiliar island without hesitation. The morning Goreti picked us up as soon as we all started speaking with one another it was just organic and natural, she brought a warmth with her that made us feel so welcomed. There was never a dull moment for the entirety of the tour around Flores island. The sheer beauty of the untouched lands is truly astounding. Goreti is extremely knowledgeable about the island in every aspect. Ranging from what time of day is ideal to see certain viewpoints, to the history of the island and what makes it so unique. She offers plenty of rest stops and chances for restroom or water. Lunch was had at a local spot called Barraca Q’Abanna and it was absolutely fantastic. By the end of the tour we felt as though we have a real friend now on the island of Flores, and more incentive to return again one day. It was an experience myself and my parents will never forget. And my father now has a wonderful picture and understand of the land that he was born on. Everything feels like it has come full circle thanks to her.

We had Goreti as tour guide for today. What an amazing woman she is!! She showed us the entire island, had all the time for us and thought along with us about other trips. She even arranged that for us. It was really beautiful and we would recommend it to everyone. She talks about this island with so much love... this was really great!!! Thank you 🙏🙏🙏

A wonderful private tour of the island.We booked a full day tour with Mystic Tours and spent the day full of wonder. Goreti picked us up at our accommodation and off we went! Despite the changeable weather with a lot of fog, we were able to explore many corners of the island. Goreti took us to impressive viewpoints and the most beautiful waterfalls and told us various things about the island. There was enough time for coffee and food, two short trips to waterfalls and a beautiful and touching church. The special thing about the tour with Goreti is that she has a good feel for people, focuses on the interests of the group and, depending on the weather, adapts the tour so that it is as beautiful as possible. You can rely on her assessment of the weather, the trails or even the food 🙂 She accompanied us through the day with great kindness and showed us the beautiful island of Flores. After the tour we knew we had to come back to Flores because it holds so many wonders. Thank you, dear Goreti, for this wonderful day on the Emerald Isle!

Hello!5 stars for our lovely tourguide Goreti! She is funny, relaxed and knows every beautiful corner of Flores! She thinks about her guests wellbeing and safety. She is always on time and definitely worth your money! Sure, renting a car and explore on your own is awesome, but with her extra information about the weather and busy moments at high lights, your trip is getting more and more. The extra information about the history of the island and the people makes it complete. So you never get dissapointed or need to travel back to places because the weather wasnt good in the morning, or there were to many people around.If you are looking for a tourguide like I described, then dont look any further and give her a text! She responds within the hour or gives you a call.And if you are looking for a ride to or from the airport, her brother Silvio will bring you with care, total family package on the beautiful island Flores ;)Goreti, thanks again!!Greetings from Carmen and Zoe,your friends from Holland!

The island of Flores is a dream and having Gorete show you this island is an even bigger dream. The welcome at the airport was so warm that you felt like you were coming home to friends.We only had a few hours and Gorete made the most of this time. She immersed us in the beauty of this island, took us to places we would never have found on our own and told us a lot about the life of the islanders. The tour with her was simply perfect.I can only recommend every visitor to Flores to book Gorete, not to take a rental car or to take a guided tour with many participants.We would like to return to this island, but then only with Gorete. Until then, stay healthy, dear friend.

We just finished our tour with Goreti, which we enjoyed very much. Despite the bad weather conditions, she helped us make the most of our day on Flores, showing us around the whole island and adapting the tour such so that we could see the various sights in the best conditions possible. She is a local and knows a lot about the island. She is also easy to communicate with. We recommend booking a tour with her.

I would like to highly recommend our private full day tour guide on Flores Island. Goreti was extremely kind and helpful, making our stay on the island truly exceptional. Thanks to her professionalism and dedication, we were able to see magnificent places all over the island very efficiently. She possesses extensive knowledge about Flores and shared many fascinating facts with us, enriching our trip. She knows absolutely everyone on the island which was very helpfulIn a situation where renting a car on Flores is highly problematic or expensive, Goreti literally saved our trip to this beautiful island. Thanks to her, we could enjoy all the attractions without any issues. I highly recommend her services to anyone planning a visit to Flores!

Your search for a guide in Flores can stop here. And hopefully your schedule aligns with Goreti’s availability!The attributes that made our tour spectacular are Goreti’s warmth, hospitality, and knowledgeable personality. She’s enthusiastic about the island’s natural treasures and knows where to find delicious food for big appetites.During the tour we asked to include a stop at the grocery store. She budgeted sufficient time to shop before the store closed and took great care that our eggs didn’t break! The entire day felt magical amid her presence.Obrigato, Goreti, for making our unscheduled and brief time in Flores unforgettable!

AMAZING TOUR!!! We absolutely loved seeing the island and getting to tour all the lookouts and waterfalls. I loved seeing and hearing about all the history of Flores. Goreti knows everyone on the island and was very helpful and friendly, organizing everything for us while on the island. We cannot wait to come back and see you soon!

I booked a full day tour on Flores which I liked very much!I got to see all the beautiful spots on the island. Goreti arranged the locations in such an order that the locations were visited in the most optimal weather/lighting conditions. She could tell me a lot of background information on the island. I would certainly recommend booking a tour with mystic tours if you plan on visiting Flores!

Goreti is the true gem of Flores. She gave us a day tour that was truely magical. Her personality is playful and fun so it matched ours perfectly. Her knowledge of the island is amazing.

My boyfriend and I just returned from our trip to Flores Island (it was our second time visiting as we fell in love with the island the second we got in the first time) and it was our BEST trip yet. The first time we followed internet recommendations and decided not to rent a car (driving a manual car is WILD over there) - it was the best decision we made. We spent most of our trip with Goreti, saw everything we wanted to see and learned so much from simply hanging out with her. We highly recommend Mystic tours as our trip would not have beed the same without her. The island is very remote so having someone who helps when you need it is huge. Goreti's brother drives a taxi and they literally never left us hanging. If one was busy with other clients, the other one's got you. It is worth it to go with this company and if we could have planned the trip all over again knowing what we do now, we would do it the same exact way. We love you Goreti and hope to see you soon.

I enjoyed a full day tour of Flores island with Goreti yesterday. The tour was very thorough with many stops to take in the breathtaking views. She was also very accommodating with the itinerary and flexible to make adjustments as necessary. She is native to the island of Flores and as a result is extremely knowledgeable of the various sights, landmarks, flora and fauna. She has great command of English. She is highly recommended as a tour guide for the land tour of Flores island.

We had the best time on our tour with Goreti. She was very accommodating and knowledgeable and literally took us around the ENTIRE island on the full day tour. From the lakes to the waterfalls, we hit what felt like every major view and she even brought us to a great local restaurant for dinner at the end of the tour. Would definitely come back again.
