Join a half-day tour of a traditional Azorean dairy farm, where you’ll get a hands-on look at the daily life of a farmer and the journey of milk — from the pasture to the bottle. Meet the herd, help with the milking process, and enjoy the stunning views where the cows live.
Start the day by meeting the friendly herd and learning how the cows are cared for, including feeding and understanding their unique personalities. Then, witness (and even help with) the milking process, while respecting animal welfare.
