It will be a complete day, unhurried and with dedication, in which our Certified Guide will accompany you, from Ponta dos Rosais to Ponta do Topo.

A 16th century church, a tower spared by the volcano of 1808, volcanic cavities, old paths to the Fajãs, fauna and flora are some examples of what you can see. Weather permitting, you can take a dip in the Simão Dias Pool, with fins and mask, provided by us, so that you can see the diversity of colorful fish found there.

Great tour.

Our guide was very personable and had great knowledge of the area. The electric van was nice because was quiet and we all could hear what he was saying about the different destinations. This was a great way to see the island.

Exciting conclusion on São Jorge

Our driver and guide was sensational. He brought us very much closer to the island. Showed us places we hadn't seen before. Could answer all the questions. The driver was very careful and safe. The ride was very versatile and exciting.
