Description


The Western tour takes in many of the key sights on the Western and central parts of São Miguel. Starting in Ponta Delgada there is a stop at the back of town to visit the pineapple greenhouses. From there the bus slowly climbs the side of the Sete Cidades caldera stopping at a couple of view points for some amazing views - including at Miradouro da Boca do Inferno where you can make out the walls of the volcanic crater and multiple lakes. After a stop for lunch in Sete Ciadades the tour heads back past Ponta Delgada and onto the volcanic crater at Fogo for the stunning views over the crater lake. Heading downhill there is a stop at the hot springs at the Caldera Velha before the tour reaches the North Coast at Ribeira Grande where there is a stop at the Miradouro do Cintrão to take in the view along the coast. From there the bus returns to Ponta Delgada. The whole way the driver/guide tells you lots about the history of the islands, and the local area including about the geology that make the Azores so special
