You'll get picked up from the comfort of your accommodation in Ponta Delgada in the morning and board an air-conditioned van. Sit back and relax on the drive to a local pottery factory. View a colorful assortment of pots, cups, tiles, and plates at the Cerâmica Vieira pottery factory. Travel to the Lagoa do Fogo crater lake that is nestled into the Água de Pau Massif stratovolcano. Take in its verdant shores and turquoise waters. Head to the hot springs of Caldeira Velha for an hour of free time when you can purchase a ticket to soak in the waters of the hot springs.

After lunch (not included), make a stop at Gorreana, the only tea plantation in Europe. Admire the lush green layered crops before continuing to four viewpoints where you can take pictures of the highlands and the coast.
