Additional Information

This excursion provides a taste of everything - seasides, cascades, scenic overlooks, bodies of water, indigenous customs, and even a stint for liquor tasting!

Through this journey, you’ll witness volcanic black sandy beaches in the island’s southern part before heading to a rare traditional pottery studio of the region.

Following that, we’ll ascend to one of the towering peaks - Pico da Barrosa - which offers a panoramic view of both island coasts, and then you’ll get to observe a magnificent landmark of the Azores - the Lagoa do Fogo.

As we proceed, you will also get to witness a naturally enchanting fall - Salto do Cabrito, and later on we head towards ‘Caldeiras da Ribeira Grande’, where you can experience the volcanic activity in the region first-hand and also immerse in hot springs that are warmed directly by the Lagoa do Fogo volcano.

To conclude the tour, let’s raise our glasses and celebrate this fantastic day with a locally made liquor!

100% Must-Do! - absolutely jaw-dropping views, a very informative guide, and all-around worth the money to do this tour. We saw so much of the island in just a short time, and were amazed at the diversity of geography and lush landscapes!
