About this activity

Explore steaming geysers and burbling mud pools set beside sparkling lakes in volcanic craters as you visit Furnas with an experienced guide. Hop into an off-road vehicle to tackle the area's country lanes and get up-close looks at this charming town's fascinating geologic features.

Pick up from your Ponta Delgada hotel and head out into the countryside around Furnas. In the heart of a massive volcanic crater, this active geologic area is scattered with natural hot springs, steaming thermal pools, and active geysers. Learn about the dynamic environment as you ride between sights with your guide, and get to hard-to-reach areas in your 4x4 ride.

Learn how the locals use the heated waters around Furnas for cooking regional specialties and then consider taking a dip in one of the area's famous hot springs. Pass by white Azorean houses in pastoral landscapes, visit the shores of Lagoa das Furnas' and its mud pools, and enjoy ample time to snap photos from sweeping viewpoints before you being returned to your hotel.
