Overview

This half-day jeep tour lasts between three and four hours and begins with pickup from hotels or the cruise ship in Ponta Delgada. The tour uses 4x4 Land Rovers to travel on off the beaten track dirt trails around the rim of the Sete Cidades crater. The first part of the tour includes about one hour driving along the crater rim on small dirt tracks, offering views of the Sete Cidades crater below. The tour then stops inside the crater at Igreja de Sao Nicolau for approximately 40 minutes, where passengers can visit the church, have a quick coffee, and use the restrooms. Next, the tour continues to the bridge between the two lakes, Lagoa Verde and Lagoa das Sete Cidades, for a 30-minute stop to see both lakes from this viewpoint. The tour finishes with another 40 minutes exploring the crater area, making several stops along offroad trails to view the landscape from different angles. An experienced driver leads the tour, which may be conducted in multiple languages. The tour includes insurance and transportation but does not include food or drinks. If Land Rover Defenders are unavailable, a smaller 4x4 SUV may be used. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Collapsible wheelchairs with removable wheels can be accommodated if the passenger has assistance boarding and disembarking.
