The West of the island is one of the most impressive ones. You really don't want to miss all the sites around here or rush through them. The West is worth a full day of exploring on its own. The best spots for views of the caldera and lakes are off the main road, and finding them is not easy. This experience includes them all, and you are only able to do this in a half day with the help of a local. We will see Sete Cidades lakes, from down/up the mountain, and also the best views for Santiago, Canário and Empadadas lakes, as well as the epic Grota do Inferno. We will follow to the darkest sand beach in the island, and dazzling natural pools, in Mosteiros. If its Summer time you can have a refreshing swim on the clear waters or save it for the open sea thermal pool, heated by the breath of the volcano during low tide, at Ferraria. Finish by visiting the king of the island at the Pineapple Plantation!

We had an amazing private tour with Carlos exploring the west side of São Miguel and the stunning Sete Cidades volcano. From the start, he was incredibly accommodating—when we had to postpone due to illness, he made sure to reschedule without any stress, which we truly appreciated. The weather that day was unpredictable, shifting between clouds, wind, and sunshine, but Carlos handled it all with ease. He adjusted the tour to make the most of the conditions, and in the end, we were rewarded with the most breathtaking views when the skies cleared. It was so windy at times, but that just added to the adventure! Beyond his flexibility, Carlos’ deep knowledge of the island’s history, culture, and geology made the experience even more special. He shared fascinating stories and took us to incredible spots, some of which we never would have found on our own. If you’re looking for a guide who’s not only knowledgeable but also patient, thoughtful, and passionate about what he does, Carlos is the one. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book with him again!
