Ponta Delgada Trip Overview
We will go up the tallest volcano of the island, only accessible by car. On the top you have the best view over its stunning caldera and lake waters. We will be standing really high, so as clear the sky, clearer will be the view.
On our way down the north slope, you will have a access to the most tropical thermal pool in the island (ticket included). Warm water, waterfall and luxurious green vegetation. Spend time here and bathe, it´s an unique experience!
Afterwards we will find the beautiful “Cabrito Waterfall” and the tea plantation on the bottom of the north slope. You can taste the most amazing Azorean tea, traditionally crafted while overlooking the green lines of tea overlooking the ocean.
Now we will head to the south slope and visit the oldest village on the island, and learn about it´s stone church and rock islet.
If you tasted the tea we must end this experience with the king of the island, learn everything about the most delicious pineapple in the world!
