Sete Cidades

The entire region of Sete Cidades is dominated by the impressive Caldeira, with its almost 7.5 mile (12 km) diameter; this is the most spectacular volcanic view in the Azores. The Azores are actually some of the tallest mountains on the planet, measured from their base at the bottom of the ocean to their peaks, which thrust high above the surface of the Atlantic. Because these once-uninhabited and remote islands were settled sporadically over a span of two centuries, their culture, dialect, cuisine and traditions vary considerably. King Charles I of Portugal contemplated this impressive panorama in 1901, discovering there lays two volcanic lakes, the Green and the Blue Lake, separated by a narrow bridge.

Crater Lakes

Together the Green and Blue lakes have an area of 482 hectares (2 miles), and they are 19 metres (62 feet) deep at their greatest depth.

Explore the rich legacy of Lisbon in a unique new way during this scenic and memorable sightseeing tour via classic tram and coach. From its oldest neighbourhoods, stepped alleys whose street patterns date back to Moorish times lined with pastel-coloured houses and wide boulevards with clanking trams, be introduced to churches adorned with ceramic tiles, restaurants and fountains.

Depart the pier via coach for the brief transfer to Martim Moniz Square.

Tram Ride

Upon arrival, proceed to Martim Moniz Square and board your tram for the approximately 45 minutes ride through Old Lisbon. This relaxing ride passes by the Parliament building, Black Hose Square, the venerable Se Cathedral and the Santa Luzia Belvedere, and offers splendid views of the Old City of Alfama and Tagus River. Along the way, sip a glass of port wine and taste a local pastry known as 'Pasteis de nata de Belem', which is served by waiters clad in traditional Portuguese costume.

Your tram ride then continues via Graça back to Martim Moniz Square. Upon arrival, re-board your coach and proceed to the Belem District. After a comfort stop at the cafeteria of the Maritime Museum, take a sightseeing drive through Lisbon.

Jeronimos Monastery

This 16th-century architectural masterpiece was created in the Gothic-Manueline style, and paid for with the riches brought back by Portuguese explorers. After a guided visit to this Unesco-listed monastery, re-board your coach for the drive to the Belém Tower.

Belém Tower

Drive by Lisbon's prominent landmark whilst standing by the bank of the Tagus River. Centuries ago, Portuguese explorers were given a rousing send-off from this lavishly-decorated tower.

Monument to the Discoveries

Your tour of Lisbon concludes with a photo stop at the Monument of the Discoveries. This monumental sculpture commemorates the 500th anniversary of the death of Prince Henry, the mastermind navigator behind Portugal's voyages of discovery and subsequent wealth.
