Embark on an unforgettable guided tour to the west of São Miguel Island, diving into the widely varied scenery and cultural highlights that define this Azorean gem. On this enchanting journey, I will be showing you the mighty Sete Cidades vulcanic complex, where you'll marvel at magnificent viewpoints to lakes and craters, and other wonders crafted by Nature that comprise this protected landscape area. In my opinion, the most beautiful sight you'll get to see is to the wonderful Sete Cidades twin lakes separated by a bridge, which according to a local legend I know, have 2 diferent colors due to a forbidden love between a green eyed shepherd and a blue eyed princess, that cried so much that gave form to 2 lakes, each with the color of their eyes. We'll also visit the Sete Cidades village and the Pinaple Plantation at Ponta Delgada, wich will provide you with a lot of beautiful knowledge about Azorean culture and traditions, not to mention you'll be able to try one of the most iconic flavours of Azores!
·After being picked up from an arranged spot at Ponta Delgada, we'll depart to the west side of the island, towards Sete Cidades. ·In the way, we'll stop by Mata do Canário & have a look at Lagoa do Canário. ·Next, we'll enjoy a panoramic viewpoint at Grota do Inferno. ·Afterwards, we'll go down to the main volcanic crater. ·Later, we'll head to the Serrado das Freiras lookout point to have a beautiful glance to Sete Cidades' blue & green twin lakes. ·Next we'll reach the Sete Cidades Village, at the lowest part of the crater, just to see how it feels to be there, and then visit São Nicolau Church. ·We'll then leave the village and drive up the crater again, to the lookout of Santiago lake. ·After this we'll continue towards one of the most famous viewpoints in the Azores: Vista do Rei, the best angle to see the green & blue lakes of Sete Cidades. ·Leaving this astonishing view, we'll visit the Plantação do Ananás (pineapple plantation), where we'll finish our tour and return to the pick up point.
