Discovering the island of Sao Miguel with 4x4 vehicles suited for the terrain, allows you to journey to the mountains where most vehicles can only dream of reaching.
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 wealth 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.
Please note: Minimum age 12 years. Approximately six guests per 4WD vehicle. Ride will be bumpy. Pregnant women or guests with back or neck conditions are not recommended to participate. No guarantee is offered with regard to visibility or views on any particular day, as weather and atmospheric conditions vary and are beyond the tour operator’s control.
