Private Tour of São Jorge
Description
Explore the stunning geographical features of São Jorge Island on this exclusive private tour. You will also have the opportunity to appreciate a remarkable architectural gem unique to the Azores.
Private Tour of São Jorge
Your adventure will begin with a hotel pick-up at 9:30 am, kicking off an extraordinary private journey through São Jorge where you will uncover the island’s most picturesque spots. Our first destination will be the Sete Fuentes Forest Park, a lush natural haven adorned with cypress trees, pines, cryptomerias, and sequoias.
Upon entering the park, we will head towards Ponta dos Rosais, a breathtaking volcanic cape that serves as a nesting ground for bird species including the common tern and cory. Following this, we will visit the Fajã de João Dias viewpoint to soak in the spectacular coastal views.
You’ll discover the significance of São Jorge cheese and learn about its production process during our visit to the Beira Cheese Factory, where a tasting of this regional delight awaits you. Around noon, we will head to a traditional restaurant to enjoy a savoury buffet lunch.
Once refreshed, we will explore the elegant Church of Santa Barbara, a quaint basilica featuring an impressive 18th-century tile mosaic. Next, we will stop at Casa do Parque, a museum dedicated to the unique geology and history of the Azores.
We will continue our tour to Fajã do Ouvidor, leading us to the natural pool known as Simão Dias. If conditions permit, you can enjoy snorkeling in the crystal-clear waters. São Jorge’s diverse landscapes will captivate you as we visit the areas of Fajã dos Cubres, Caldeira Santo Cristo, and Fajã dos Vimes, where we will also admire the local coffee plantations.
Our adventure will conclude at Ponta do Topo, the historic site where the first explorers landed on the island. The private tour of São Jorge will wrap up with a return to your hotel at approximately 5:30 pm.
