Furnas Valley, Botanical Gardens & Hot Springs Tour

We'll meet at the scheduled time at the port in Vila Franca do Campo, ready to embark on a tour of natural places on the island of São Miguel.

First, we'll drive through the Furnas Valley to see the fumaroles and geysers of boiling water. At a high point, we'll view the crater lake of Furnas and the fumes rising from the water, located above the volcano.

We'll then head to the village to enjoy a traditional lunch: a stew cooked in an underground oven, a local specialty. You will then have an hour of free time to explore the narrow streets of Furnas.

Next, we will enter the Terra Nostra Garden, a botanical garden featuring a selection of native and imported flowers, including one of the largest collections of camellias with over 600 varieties.

Inside the garden, we will have the opportunity to bathe in the volcanic hot springs and enjoy the relaxing mineral-rich waters. The tour will conclude at 5:30 pm back at the original starting point.
