WHAT YOU VISIT
Ponta Delgada by E-Bike
Discover all Ponta Delgada has to offer on an electric bike tour designed for small groups. You'll walk from the pier to Fort São Brás and meet your guide. After a brief safety lesson, you'll don your helmet, hop on your e-bike and follow your guide through the Portas da Cidade (City Gates), noted for its three distinctive arches. Other iconic sites include Matriz Church with its tall tower and City Hall. A brief break at Mercado da Graça offers a chance to mingle with locals and sample local produce. Continuing on, Rosto do Cão Viewpoint offers unforgettable photo ops and stops at Milícias Beach and Pópulo Beach invite you to dip your feet and enjoy refreshments. As you return to the pier, you'll stop at the University of the Azores, zip past the Colégio Church, ride through beautiful António Borges Garden and Campo São Francisco, the city's largest square.
PHOTO OPPORTUNITIES
Ponta Delgada's impressive bay and historic Old Town aren't the only subjects worth capturing; wherever you point your camera you'll find one memorable photo after another. But you can't miss the high tower of the 460-year-old Matriz Church. Rising 30 meters (98.4 feet), the tower, constructed in the early 20th century, can be seen from every point in the city.
SNACKS
During your e-bike adventure, you'll visit a pineapple plantation and learn the history and cultivation process and enjoy tasting a unique pineapple liqueur that highlights this cherished Azorean crop. You'll also indulge in a gastronomic tasting next to the beach, savoring local cheeses, Bolo Lêvedo (a traditional Portuguese muffin), jam, and a drink.
WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
Gothic style buildings in stark black and white adored with Baroque details, cobblestone streets, panoramic views of the city and the vast Atlantic Ocean and seaside gastronomic tastings all add up to an adventurer's dream come true.
