Overview

In life, it's the stories that keep us truly alive, and not even the best Netflix series could top this land. Historical salseys, exciting stories, botany, geology, culture and gastronomy are intertwined in this tour for you to get to know the real Azorean people.
Excitement, sentiment and laughter are guaranteed.

Our tour will start at Gonçalo Velho Cabral square, next to the portas da cidade. We will walk along the boardwalk and talk about the famous anticyclone and the geostrategic importance of the Azores.

We will arrive at the Campo de San Francisco where you will contemplate the religious insignia of the capital. In the romantic Antero de Quental garden we will soak up the Portuguese saudade and the Jesuit church will be waiting for us to unveil its mysteries.

We will admire the famous Portuguese roadway of the historical center and we will talk about the irresistible Azorean gastronomy. We will finish next to the main church of San Sebastian, where we will give you exclusive discounts and a PDF full of tips, gastronomic recommendations and info made with lots and lots of love.

welcome to paradise, travelers!
