Discover the charm of Vila Franca do Campo, the first capital of São Miguel, on a full tour that brings together breathtaking landscapes, living traditions, and authentic Azorean cuisine.

Start the day at the Poço Largo Observation Deck, enjoying a superb panoramic view over the village and the Atlantic coast. Next, enter the heart of the local culture with a visit to a traditional pottery workshop, where you will see artisans shaping clay and learn the secrets of centuries-old Azorean ceramics.

The trip continues at the iconic Church of Senhora da Paz, from the top of which you can get one of the most iconic images of the Azores. Then change scenery and immerse yourself in the silence of Lagoa do Congro, a hidden gem in the midst of mystical and lush vegetation (Note: Currently, access to Lagoa do Congro is temporarily prohibited until further notice, so the stop will be adapted on the spot).

Head towards the dramatic Ponta Garça Lighthouse to contemplate the immensity of the Atlantic and stop at Calhau da Areia, a setting of imposing rock formations, ideal for memorable photographs.

No visit is complete without the opportunity to taste the famous and delicious Queijada da Vila, made according to the original recipe (optional consumption/purchase, not included in the tour price). End your tour in a relaxed way at the Vila Franca do Campo Marina, watching the boats and enjoying the sea breeze.
