Be prepared for most typical Azorean experience. Two in one, typical food & thermal pools. One of the great experience on the island is the thermal pools, you don't want to miss them.

This experience will start in the end of the day until around midnight, be prepared for the best evening of your trip. So far seems good, there is more, before the thermal pools we will visit where locals cook the famous "cozido"(stew) using the heat from the volcano and this is what you gonna get for your dinner. On the top of all that you can have a cup of local tea made in one of the natural hot springs before we return home, all this surounded with a mysterious atmosphere created with the steam coming from the boilers of valley of Furnas. For better understanding you have to come... Starting from Ponta Delgada at 18h00-18:30 pm. Pick up at any place situated inside the city of Ponta Delgada.

As you know, Azores are known for the incredible wild nature, and the best way to explore it is with us doing CANYONING... Rapelling, jumping and sliding into natural pools it's simply EPIC and unforgetable. Starting from the bottom part of the stream, we put on the gear (wetsuits, harnesses, helmets, boots...) then followed by a short hike to the top of the stream, and after that is where all the fun starts! Don't worry about not bringing your phone... We offer amazing photos and videos for you to never forget this EPIC experience!

São Miguel thermal waters are well known to be an amazing phenomenon, a side effect from the active island volcanos. Furnas is a place where the volcano activity can be closely observed and experienced in all its splendor. I will cover with you all of the wonders coming from Furnas Volcano: Furnas lake, geysers, steam cooking pods and water fountains. After this you can also choose one of the local thermal pools (Terra Nostra Park or Poça da D. Beija) and indulge yourself on a steaming bath, great even under winter weather, that will relax your mind and rejuvenate your muscles (1 entrance fee included per person). After the hot bath I will take you to taste Furnas favorite seasonal products (corn, chestnuts) cooked on the boiling waters of the volcano! Or the famous "Bolo Lêvedo" (yeast cake) warm out of the oven. To complete this amazing experience, on our way to or back you will also be at the tea plantation, only place that grows tea in Europe, and taste our unique green tea. The perfect day in São Miguel even if it´s raining! This experience takes about 5-6h. The transportation is a 4 people vehicle, so there is a maximum of 3 participants for your comfort. I can rent a van up to 7 people, if you are interested let me know. If this experience is not available on your chosen date, please ask me for availability.
