Add a twist of adventure to your visit to this island blessed with astounding nature. Traveling by smaller vehicle, you'll discover some places inaccessible to buses while your driver explains some fun facts pertaining to the island's history.
As you climb to Sete Cidades Crater Lake, watch for trees indigenous to the Azores. Hydrangeas and other varieties of vegetation cover the soft edges of the valleys — a serene setting of sparkling waters and small villages. This whole area feels as if it is lost in time.
The surrounding region of vast farmland — the breadbasket of the Azores — provides food and prosperity for the population of the islands. Interestingly, modern technology often takes a back seat here as the land is worked according to age-old tradition.
Notes:
Minimum age is 12 years. Ride will be bumpy. Guests who are pregnant or have a heart, back or neck condition are not allowed to participate.
