What you can expect

Set off on a rugged safari Jeep tour of Faial, witnessing incredible views waiting around every corner. Have the unique opportunity to visit the island's Botanical Garden, along with the Capelinhos Volcano Interpretation Centre, learning about the history and preservation of the island's natural treasures.

Embark in a rugged safari Jeep, whipping around the trails in some of the most scenic parts of the island.

Make a stop at the island's famous Botanical Garden. With an area of 26,000 square feet (8,000 sq m), the garden serves as a vital point for education, leisure, and conservation. Learn about the ecological importance of preserving the island's endemic species, and hear how the centre collects seeds, recovers habitat, and works to restore the natural wealth of the Azores.

In addition, visit the Capelinhos Volcano Interpretation Centre, which works to preserve the existing landscape of the area affected by the eruption of the Capelinhos Volcano between 1957 and 1958. This unique building was designed to be totally hidden concealed by the volcanic sands that buried the land during the eruption. This audacious and nearly invisible building houses an interactive, virtual experience taking you through the geological life of the Capelinhos volcano in all of its phases, providing essential documentation of submarine volcanoes. Finish your tour with an appreciation for both the beauty and science of Faial.
