The best way to get to know the easternmost tip of the island of São Miguel! Departure from Ponta Delgada to one of the biggest tourist attractions of Nordeste - Ribeira dos Caldeirões Natural Park, where waterfalls and watermills appear surrounded by lush and diverse vegetation. The tour continues to Nordeste village centre, a village with a beautiful architectural heritage such as the Matriz de São Jorge and the churches of Nossa Senhora da Luz or Nossa Senhora do Rosário, dated from 1529, the village is known for its beautiful gardens and well kept streets, where flowers seem to bloom in every corner. Then on to the viewpoints to the north east of the island: Ponta do Arnel, Ponta do Sossego and Ponta da Madrugada, these viewpoints are known for their manicured and colourful gardens that offer a magnificent view where the cliffs drop steeply down to the sea. Picnic for lunch served at one of the viewpoints. Next stop is Povoação, located in the south-eastern part of the island, where the first Portuguese navigators arrived. The tour continues to the Salto do Cavalo viewpoint offering a panoramic view over the village of Furnas and Povoação. Return to Ponta Delgada by the north coast of the island.
