Overview

Discover the volcanic wonders of Furnas on this full-day guided van tour, perfect for those who want to explore nature, culture, and local flavors in comfort.

Travel through the scenic countryside with stops at Vila Franca do Campo—where you can try the famous Queijada da Vila pastry (optional, not included)—and the Gorreana Tea Factory, Europe’s oldest tea plantation.

At Furnas Lake, see how the traditional Cozido stew is cooked underground using volcanic heat—then enjoy it at a local restaurant.

Relax in the thermal pools of Terra Nostra Garden, one of the most iconic botanical parks in the Azores, and take in the stunning views from Pico do Ferro viewpoint.

The tour includes all entrance fees, lunch, and expert guidance on volcanic activity, Azorean traditions, and the island’s lush landscape. With small groups and comfortable transport, you’ll enjoy a more intimate experience—more like a private day with friends than a big bus tour. The ideal way to explore!

Activity itinerary

Vila Franca do Campo
  • 20m
Step into the charm of the island’s first capital! Wander the cobbled streets of Vila Franca do Campo, a quaint coastal town where history meets flavor. Don’t miss the chance to try a freshly baked Queijada da Vila (optional), a beloved local pastry that’s been made by hand for centuries. It's a sweet bite of Azorean heritage!
Lagoa das Furnas
  • 20m
  • Admission ticket included
Experience the raw power of nature at Furnas Lake, where bubbling geothermal vents and steaming fumaroles create a truly otherworldly scene. Watch locals unearth pots of “Cozido” stew—slow-cooked for hours underground in volcanic soil. It’s not just a meal; it’s a dramatic and delicious tradition you’ll never forget.
Caldeira das Furnas
  • 30m
The various boilers emit vapors and the smell of sulfur content on nostrils. It is something amazing to see this true force of nature to be freed, not only in the boilers but also by land, by bubbling incessantly.
Parque Terra Nostra
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Lose yourself in the magic of Terra Nostra Garden, a 200-year-old botanical paradise filled with exotic trees, flowering plants, and winding walking paths. At its heart lies a steamy, rust-colored thermal pool, rich in minerals and naturally heated by volcanic energy. Take a rejuvenating dip and feel like you're bathing in the heart of the Earth.
Pico do Ferro Viewpoint
  • 15m
Climb to one of São Miguel’s most breathtaking viewpoints at Pico do Ferro. From this panoramic perch, gaze down over Furnas Valley, where green hills cradle a shimmering lake and wisps of steam curl into the sky. It’s the perfect photo stop—and a moment of pure Azorean awe.
Plantacoes de Cha Gorreana
  • 30m
Breathe in the crisp aroma of lush green hills at the Gorreana Tea Factory, where tea has been grown and processed since 1883. Stroll through the rolling fields of vibrant tea plants and see how the leaves are still dried and packaged using traditional machinery. Sip a warm cup while gazing out at the Atlantic—it’s a taste of history in every drop.
