Itinerary

After check-in at the store or pick-up in Ponta Delgada, your adventure in the Azores begins with our guide, who will lead you to one of our comfortable vehicles for this unique experience. We head to Faial da Terra, where the Faial da Terra Circular Trail — Salto do Prego begins, passing through the hidden mountain village of Sanguinho, abandoned in the 1970s and now being restored due to its charm. At Salto do Prego, admire the impressive waterfall and, if you wish, take a dip in its crystal-clear waters, followed by a light meal.

Next, we visit the center of Faial da Terra village, surrounded by nature between the ocean and the mountains, with time to relax at the old whalers’ port before continuing to the second part of the day. We explore several viewpoints in Nordeste, including Ponta do Sossego and Vista dos Barcos, landscapes famous on Instagram for their green cliffs and colorful flowers, in one of the richest floral regions in Europe.

The final stop of the day is at the Ribeira dos Caldeirões Natural Park, where stunning waterfalls, including the largest at about 40 meters, allow you to fully absorb the energy of nature. At the end of the experience, we return to Ponta Delgada, concluding an unforgettable day in the Azores.
