Furnas Valley, Botanical Gardens & Hot Springs Tour

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

First, we will drive through the Furnas Valley to see the fumaroles and geysers of boiling water that create mist over the volcanic landscapes. Reaching a high point, we will see the crater lake of Furnas, located above the volcano.

Next, we will go to the village to enjoy a traditional lunch: a stew cooked in an underground oven, a local specialty. After lunch, you'll have an hour of free time to explore the narrow streets of Furnas.

Following this, we will enter the Terra Nostra Garden, a botanical garden featuring a variety of native and imported flowers, including over 600 camellia varieties.

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