FUTURISMO'S VEHICLES FOR LAND ACTIVITIES
Jeeps and vans:

We have several different vehicles (jeeps and vans) used to show you the entire island of São Miguel.

 

Bicycles

We also have bicycles and can take groups to discover the beauty of São Miguel. We have wonderful tracks around the island with different difficulties on asphalt, cobblestones and dirt roads for more off road.
