About this experience
Private Tour by car or Van with a local guide to see Furnas area. Furnas is located in almost the middle east of Sao mIguel island, where you can find the Caldeiras (fumaroles), and one of the richest places in Europe in terms of thermal and medicinal waters (22 different springs). You can also find one of the most diverse places in terms of vegetation, and probably the most beautiful botanical garden on the Azores "Parque Terra Nostra Garden" (12.5 hectares), within which you will find a hot geothermal pool (with a temperature between 41 at 42 degrees).

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Full Day Tour Furnas Lake & Hot Springs: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ponta Delgada.
How much does Private Full Day Tour Furnas Lake & Hot Springs cost?
+
Prices start at $274 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ponta Delgada usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Full Day Tour Furnas Lake & Hot Springs take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ponta Delgada is not rushed.
Is Private Full Day Tour Furnas Lake & Hot Springs worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 19 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ponta Delgada, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Full Day Tour Furnas Lake & Hot Springs?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Full Day Tour Furnas Lake & Hot Springs suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Full Day Tour Furnas Lake & Hot Springs?
+
Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ponta Delgada can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ponta Delgada and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Full Day Tour Furnas Lake & Hot Springs start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ponta Delgada within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Ponta Delgada?
+
On Outty we rank every Ponta Delgada experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include São Miguel West Highlights: Sete Cidades, Lagoa do Fogo & Lunch, Jeep Tour Full Day Sete Cidades & Lagoa do Fogo with lunch and drinks included., Off the Beaten Track Half Day Sete Cidades Jeep Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Ponta Delgada?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Ponta Delgada?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
