Overview

This excursion is unique because we will visit two iconic places in the Azores, Lagoa do Fogo is the second largest on the island of São Miguel and one of the largest in the Azores. It has been classified as a nature reserve since 1974 and is part of the Natura 2000 Network for being classified as a special conservation area. Lagoa das Sete Cidades is very likely the most iconic and recognized natural monument in the Azores. In a region with such a large number of striking landscapes, the image of Sete Cidades is chosen countless times to represent or promote the island of São Miguel and the archipelago. Named one of the Seven Wonders of Portugal and classified as a Protected Landscape by the Natura 2000 Network, the Sete Cidades are a unique place in the world, which any traveler passing through these islands must visit.

Tour of Soa Miguel.

Published on Sep, 2024

Carla did a great job of taking us on our tour of this amazing island. Her knowledge was impeccable and she was very accommodating to our needs. This tour gave us a great overview of some of the highlights of the island. Thanks Carla!

Start your trip here

We landed after a redeye flight so we're dragging. We figured we'r would let someone else drive us all over Day 1 to get a feel for this island and it was the best decision. Despite the lack of sleep, our guide (Carla) was so energetic and the beauty of this island so magnificent, that we forgot how jet lagged we were. We learned a lot about the culture and history and saw the MOST spectacular scenery imaginable! A very memorable, fun trip!! Just had a blast. Very organized and diverse activities. Highly recommend

Incredible one-to-one experience you won't get anywhere else

Published on Apr, 2024

What a wonderful experience to see this beautiful island! Our host was above and beyond intelligent and had great information. It was a sheer pleasure to be with her and that made our day. She was wonderful and we felt like good friends when we were done. What a spectacular way to go. Very comfortable car as well. We will recommend to everyone! We were blessed

Great tour of the amazing sites on Sao Miguel

Published on Jan, 2024

Eric was a great guide and made our tour personal and enjoyable. We did the east route one day and the west route the next. The routes are excellent and there was much to see. Just the right amount of time at each stop, and a good teaser to show where you may want to spend more time on your own at a particular site. I'd go back and spend more time in Furnas in the future. Will definitely return to Sao Miguel, thanks to Eric's friendly approach to showing us the all beauty and uniqueness of the green island!

Nice!
