Ponta Delgada Tours in Azores

7 tours · €45–€115 per person · ★ 4.9

Ponta Delgada is São Miguel's main town and the port where most island routes begin, so a guided Ponta Delgada tour from Azores is the easy way to see the best of the island in a day. Book one and the route, the timing and the pickup are sorted, which matters here because the top sights are spread across the island and a lot of them sit at the end of bumpy roads.

When you compare tours to Ponta Delgada, check the stops. We'd look for a full-day trip that takes in Sete Cidades, where the twin lakes sit inside an old crater, and Lagoa do Fogo over on the other side. The Vista do Rei viewpoint above Sete Cidades is the one not to miss, and a good 4x4 or jeep tour will reach the harder corners a coach can't. Want flexible timing and your own driver-guide? A private Ponta Delgada day trip from Azores does that; small-group excursions keep the price down and still hit the highlights.

7 Ponta Delgada tours from €45. Private and small-group full-day trips, hotel pickup and free cancellation on most - easy to book online.

Ponta Delgada in Azores: 7 tours, all from the 123 we kept after screening every one of the 523 tours Viator lists for Azores, rated 4.5★ or higher by 30+ travellers and each one read and summarised by Guidekin.
