Adventure ride in Sete Cidades

Jeep Tour to Sete Cidades – Full day

Sao Miguel island

In a guided experience through the features of a still unknown island, our jeeps and our guides will help to the construction of another perspective – the perspective of adventure, of intriguing moments, and of glowing instants.

Areas where the vegetation is almost untouchable; woods where specimens of the endemic flora emerge and alternate alongside with exotic species of the world. We will show you how to go through all of this green, in wide, open fields defined by walls of black, basaltic rock; how to jump over puddles and up the hills while the branches flee at our passage and the birds fly over lagoons and bogs.
