PORTUGAL · SETE CIDADES AND THE SAO MIGUEL LAKES
3 tours
Portugal fills up from July and stays busy into October, so the good Sete Cidades and São Miguel Lake Trips go early. The 3 below would go on a first trip, priced and timed so you can choose in five minutes.
Ride ATVs from Fenais da Luz into Sete Cidades, chasing crater views and Blue Lagoon tracks with expert guides, in 3 to 4 hours.
“Well worth the time and money. Terrific guide and ATVs worked well. A beautiful way to enjoy the scenery with a little adventure. A great time with family”
Full-day Jeep tour of Sete Cidades and Lagoa do Fogo with hotel pickup, lunch and drinks, plus big crater and lake views.
“First we were driven in 4-wd Jeep to top of caldera on South end of island. Scenery was nice, sun was not fully out so the green vs. blue lake colors were muted. Had lunch at noon at restaurant in Mariano's hometown. Then we went North to top of another caldera. This time visibility was severely limited due to fog rolling in. Oh well. However, Mariano was an excellent guide. He started telling us about the island's history the moment we started the tour and continued stories about the area, his family and the sights for the next 8 hrs. He did not just drone on and on. What he…”
A half-day Jeep safari in São Miguel around Sete Cidades, with crater views, village stops, and pickup from Ponta Delgada.
“Wonderful off-road tour that took us places we could not imagine. The views were spectacular and our guide, Ricardo, was one of the best, well informed persons we have ever had for a tour. There was no topic that he could not address and he provided so much background information about the Azores. Highly recommend.”
