Discover eastern São Miguel on a relaxed small-group van tour, combining volcanic landscapes, scenic coastal roads, and lush nature. Depart from Ponta Delgada and travel along the south coast, passing beaches and the historic town of Vila Franca do Campo, before continuing to Furnas. Explore one of the island’s most fascinating geothermal areas, with steaming fumaroles, bubbling mud pools, naturally carbonated mineral waters, and hot springs. You may also choose to relax in the iron-rich thermal pools of Terra Nostra Park (entrance fee not included). Enjoy a traditional Azorean lunch featuring cozido, slow-cooked underground using volcanic heat, with a drink, dessert, and coffee included. After lunch, enjoy panoramic views from the Furnas volcanic caldera, then explore waterfalls and walking paths in a lush natural park. Continue through the Nordeste region, known for its dramatic cliffs and coastal scenery, before returning to Ponta Delgada along the scenic north coast.
