Explore the entire island of Faial in exclusive style — from the dramatic Capelinhos volcano moonscape to the lush Caldeira caldera rim — with a knowledgeable local guide entirely at your disposal for the day.
What to expect
Begin at the striking Capelinhos Volcano Interpretation Centre, where a 1957 eruption literally added land to Faial — the subterranean museum is world-class. Drive the Caldeira rim for sweeping views into the ancient caldera, then wind through flower-draped villages and the northern coast cliffs. Your guide weaves in local history, geology, and folklore throughout. The day ends back at Horta marina with time to browse Peter Café Sport.
Good to know
Departs from Horta marina. The Capelinhos Interpretation Centre charges a separate entry (approx. EUR 6 adults). Confirm all-aboard time with your guide at booking — the island loop is easily completed in 6–7 hours.
