Locations de vacances : Ribeira Seca

As you know, Azores are known for the incredible wild nature, and the best way to explore it is with us doing CANYONING... Rapelling, jumping and sliding into natural pools it's simply EPIC and unforgetable. Starting from the bottom part of the stream, we put on the gear (wetsuits, harnesses, helmets, boots...) then followed by a short hike to the top of the stream, and after that is where all the fun starts! Don't worry about not bringing your phone... We offer amazing photos and videos for you to never forget this EPIC experience! Other things to note After booking we will need to contact you in order to finalize the booking

Rocha Negra Gin is distilled here on the island of São Miguel, a place where black volcanic rock meets the pristine blue Atlantic ocean. Rocha Negra means “Black Rock” and honours the island, formed millions of years ago, from molten lava fighting the sea. Rocha Negra is intrinsically linked to the environment of the Azores. It is on this coastline with its unrelenting and unforgiving jagged edged rocks, that the botanicals found in Rocha Negra grow. This experience is held come rain or shine. When the weather is nice, the library doors are open, bringing the beautiful views of the green hills of Sao Miguel to the ocean beyond. There is also ample seating outside and we invite you to tour the grounds with a G&T in hand. For rainy days, we have comfortable seating inside. Your gin tasting includes a journey through the history of the Azores, the Solar and the citrus trade with the UK as well as learning to make, and enjoying, the perfect Rocha Negra Gin and Tonic. The Solar Branco Eco-Estate, through your host Ali Bullock, is a proud ambassador for the Rocha Negra Gin brand.

*ASK US ABOUT REDUCED PRICING for children 14 yrs and under. Free 6 yrs and under.* The tour can change, as we’re a working farm so anything might come up and we’ll take you along to shadow us. However, the typical tour goes something like this: We set you up with mud boots and take you Azorean style to the pasture where our adult cows are grazing. There, in the center of all our cows, you’ll understand why we’re a sustainable dairy farm all while petting our cows and experiencing each of their unique behavior. Then you’ll help us walk the cows from pasture to the milking barn (just like you see other farmers do on the streets throughout the island - the so called "cow jams"). While the cows snack at the milking barn, we’ll take you through a scenic drive to meet our teenage cows. Afterwards, you can see the baby calves and then we begin the milking where you are welcome to experience milking a cow yourself by hand and with the machine. We end with a picnic-style tasting of the fresh milk you just milked and other local delights. The tour starts at either 3:30pm or 4:30pm, depending on the time of year, and typically lasts about 2 – 3 hours. (If you have small children and need a shorter tour, we’d be happy to try and accommodate you.) Other things to note Our tour is offered rain or shine as the idea is to get a taste of an Azorean farmer's life...our work must go on no matter what the weather. We do however, do what we can to keep you within your comfort limits.

After you arrive at my house (that stays 15 km from Ponta Delgada) I will explain my options to the entrances, where is also include locals wines and cheese. Next we will star the cooking class, where I explain the most important ingredients of the Azorean cuisine, then we start an authentic cooking class with demonstration and hands-on experience. After, we will enjoy what we have cooked. During the cooking process, I will show you the farm where I live, where you can see the typical fruits and plants from Azores and depending on the season of the year, we can pick fresh ingredients, to our cooking class. We also provide these experience to team building. Other things to note We define various types of menus according to our traditions. These menus can be changed and adjusted according to the expectations and interests of our clients. For more information contact us.
