What our customers say about us
Choosing the Best Car to Explore Pico Island
Pico features unique driving conditions. While the main regional road encircling the island is smooth, accessing the famous UNESCO-protected vineyards (Criação Velha) or driving up to the Pico Mountain trail head involves rugged, volcanic gravel tracks and steep ascents.
- Our Recommendation: For travellers wanting to explore off the beaten path or hike the mountain, opting for a car with slightly higher ground clearance or a robust manual transmission gives you total peace of mind on unpaved roads.
