Description

Discover the natural beauty of São Miguel Island on this half-day 4×4 tour from Ponta Delgada to the iconic Sete Cidades region. Ideal for travellers looking to explore volcanic landscapes, crater lakes, and panoramic viewpoints in a shorter time frame.

The tour begins with pickup in Ponta Delgada, followed by a scenic drive to the Muro das Nove Janelas aqueduct. We continue to Miradouro das Cumeeiras, offering a unique perspective over the crater and surrounding hills, before descending into the crater to visit the peaceful Lagoa das Sete Cidades and the village of Sete Cidades.

Next, we stop at Lagoa de São Tiago, a lesser-known lake nestled in lush vegetation, perfect for nature lovers and photographers. We finish at the famous Miradouro da Vista do Rei — one of the island’s most iconic viewpoints — before returning to Ponta Delgada with plenty of day left to explore.
