Amazing day on a beautiful island. Our driver guide Manuel was very friendly, very knowledgeable and passionate about the island and a great driver as well.
Saw all the main sites central and West. Unbelievable views followed by more unbelievable views!
Lunch stop was excellent quality with wine, beer and liqueur aperitif all included
Overall I would have no hesitation in thoroughly recommending, and the next time I visit Sao Miguel I will book the East Side tour with Pure Azores
