Overview

Discover the volcano route that will take you to the best attractions of the island of São Miguel! During 2 days you will explore the Furnas volcano, a place of constant volcanic activity and thermal pools, discover the unmistakable beauty of the Seven Cities volcano, marvel at the nature of the Fire volcano, learn how pineapple is produced from the Azores, visit one of the most famous water cascades and admire the tea plantations among many other attractions.

Choose between two tour options:
•Tour with lunch included, "cooked from the furnas" served on one day and a "regional food buffet" on the other, or;
•Tour without lunch where you will have extra free time in the lunch break, the opportunity to buy food or simply bring snacks with you.

Our guides will answer all your questions with a welcoming smile and allow you to enjoy your holidays to the fullest.
