Furnas: Tea Plantations, Lake, and Volcano Guided Tour is a guided day tour departing from Ponta Delgada, on the island of São Miguel in the Azores, taking in the volcanic interior of the island across a series of natural and agricultural sites.

The tour visits the Furnas area, where geothermal activity shapes the landscape through fumaroles and hot springs. Guests explore a working tea plantation, one of the few in Europe, and have the opportunity to bathe in thermal waters. The lake at Furnas, set within a volcanic caldera, forms a central part of the route. Tickets cover the guided experience throughout.
