Set off on a full-day adventure through the stunning Nordeste region, often called the “10th island” for its peaceful isolation and rare natural beauty. Traveling along the dramatic North Coast, you’ll explore the oldest geological part of São Miguel—an area defined by soaring mountains, lush forests, and cascading waterfalls. This scenic journey offers countless stops at spectacular belvederes overlooking the Atlantic, along with visits to flower-filled villages that showcase the charm and tranquility of this remote region.
After a delicious lunch in the parish of Achadinha, the tour continues to a historic 16th-century natural park, where ancient watermills and beautiful waterfalls reveal the island’s deep rural heritage. The day carries on to Povoação, the first settlement of São Miguel and a village steeped in history. To complete the experience, a stop at the Salto do Cavalo viewpoint provides one of the island’s most breathtaking panoramas—an ideal place to capture the unforgettable landscapes of this remarkable region.

Amy
Three of us had a wonderful full day trip with Julio today despite the foggy start. As a local he was very knowledgeable about the area and knew the perfect spots to give us the best views. And he was patient - we never felt pressured to hurry when we lingered and explored some of our favorite areas. He also took us on a hike to a location most tours would never know to show you. Highly recommend!
Kim
Julio was such a great guide. The day started very foggy & rainy, but we headed out & had such a wonderful day. We saw historical areas, beautiful views & some special areas that only a local would know about. We had a great lunch & returned home with smiles & many memories.
Sérgio
Tour is a must. The jeep will take you to places you simply cannot access on a normal car/bus and make plenty of stops so you can take that one stunning photo of your trip for future memories. The kindness of the staff is also something worth mentioning.

Amazing half day trip to Sete Cidades with Miguel. The most amazing views and learnt so much about the island! Would definitely recommend and book again on my next visit to Sao Miguel! ♡

We had a wonderful experience. Heitor Amaral was our tour guide, and was extremely passionate, knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. He also knew all the local spots for coffee/drinks. He made sure we got home safe. What an amazing experience with an amazing guide.
