Our guide was named Rui and we were all grateful for his impressive driving skills. The jeep tour took us to the peaks of the Sete Cidades and had I driven up there I would have abandoned my car and taken a week to walk down. You cannot predict the weather, so I was nervous that the day was cloudy and the further up we went it began to drizzle. However, the mountain allowed for different perspectives on the sites and we were still able to see the lakes and village from the top. We went into town and enjoyed a drink before heading home. Tours are a great way to experience the island!

It was a fantastic trip in and around the volcanic crater lake. For us getting on and off a cruise ship in the same day, this activity was the perfect way to see an unforgettable sight that only Azores could provide.

Our guide Rasmus was really great. He told us a lot and showed us a lot. It was a successful, enjoyable excursion. We were lucky with the weather! We were always in the right place during the gaps in the clouds.
