Overview
Explore with us the biodiversity and geodiversity of São Miguel Island. Start by visiting two of Ponta Delgada’s main botanical gardens, António Borges and José do Canto, where you’ll find impressive centennial trees that invite you to enjoy nature at its finest. Continue the tour with a visit to Gruta do Carvão, the only volcanic cave on São Miguel open to the public. This fascinating lava tunnel offers a unique glimpse into the island’s volcanic origins, with its striking rock formations and geological textures.
This is a perfect tour for those who appreciate nature, history, and the quiet beauty of the Azores.
Please note: The visit to Gruta do Carvão is subject to availability. If no time slots are available on the day of your booking, the afternoon itinerary will be adjusted to include visits to António Borges and José do Canto Garden, the Pineapple Plantations, and the Farmers Market, ensuring an equally enriching experience.
