Add a touch of adventure to your holiday in the Azores with a private guided tour of Sete Cidades and Lagoa do Fogo in São Miguel!

Climb aboard a comfortable and luxurious SUV in a group made up of just your friends and family and set off on a guided tour of São Miguel with a professional. During this off-the-beaten-track activity, you'll have the chance to discover the sublime landscapes of the Azores, with their volcanic craters, lakes and lush vegetation.

Your private tour of Sete Cidades and Lagoa do Fogo begins with a pick-up service. Thanks to this convenient service, your guide will collect you directly from your accommodation to take you on your adventure! The guided tour will start at Lagoa do Fogo, a crater lake located in the stratovolcano of the Água de Pau massif, in the centre of the island of São Miguel. Next, you'll discover Cerrado das freiras, a perfect vantage point from which to admire the lake of Sete Cidades, before making your way to the old village of the same name.

Your guided tour of São Miguel continues with another viewpoint, this time overlooking the sea: the Escalvado viewpoint. Your next stop will be the Church of Saint Nicholas, a neo-Gothic church in a charming setting, followed by the Vista do Rei viewpoint. Finally, your private tour of the Azores ends with a visit to a pineapple plantation. A visit to a pineapple plantation in São Miguel is a must if you want to discover one of the Azores' most emblematic specialities. Unlike tropical pineapples, those grown on the island are grown in glass greenhouses using a unique know-how handed down since the 19th century!

The Azores await you for a day of exploration and discovery. Book this private tour of São Miguel and visit Sete Cidades and Lagoa do Fogo with a professional guide!
