WhyAzores IslandsWhere to next?
Untouched Paradise for Nature Lovers
This archipelago offers exceptional opportunities to connect with the wild: hiking through majestic forests, exploring awe-inspiring volcanic landscapes, and unwinding in natural volcanic pools. You'll have the chance to discover every facet of the largest island in the Azores - São Miguel.
Immerse yourself in the beauty of nature at its purest as you explore this unforgettable island realm.
Here, you can find adventures like sailing among whales and dolphins, hiking through ancient forests, and diving into the Atlantic waters.

Nature
Culture
If you feel like you need to breathe, this island is where the air will embrace you.
This journey is for you if you want to switch off the noise, tune into your heart, and follow paths leading to volcanic lakes, hot springs, and views that make time stand still. If you love being surrounded by greenery that seems untouched by human hands. If you're not afraid of a little rain, in exchange for rainbows, mists, and magic. If you're drawn to the idea of warm water bubbling from the earth, a snake-free jungle, and an island that is wild yet accessible. If sometimes you feel like just setting off and being closer to yourself—then you're in the right place.

SPOTS
This is a wish list destination for next year. If enough people sign up, we’ll make it happen!
More5first-come, first-served
The weather in the Azores is changeable and every day it rains somewhere on the island, so we'll adapt our programme accordingly. With the help of meteorological, geographical knowledge and a bit of luck, we'll arrange the days to ensure the best conditions for each day of the programme.
Day 1
Welcome to São Miguel
We gather at Sofia Airport, ready to fly to São Miguel.
Our first stop will be the manor where we'll stay for the duration of our trip. The traditional Azorean villa is located on the outskirts of the town and features its own pool, garden, barbecue, and common spaces for our favourite evening gatherings.
Day 2
Sete Cidades and Ferraria
For the first day of your journey to the Azores, we offer an unforgettable adventure. It begins with a walk around the magical volcanic lakes of Sete Cidades.
If the weather doesn't allow for a longer hike around the lakes, we'll visit Mosteiros and one of the island's most famous black beaches.
The day will end with relaxation in the natural volcanic hot springs of Ferraria, where the warm waters mix with the cold ocean waves, offering a unique experience.
For visiting Ferraria, a special tide forecast is followed - based on it, we'll choose the best time of day to enjoy them.
Day 3
Deep within the jungle
The second full day on São Miguel kicks off with a jungle adventure to "Janela do Inferno" (translated as "Window to Hell"), where you'll revel in the wild nature at its finest.
We'll traverse vibrant and colorful forests, just like those we've only seen in fairy tales.
If we have the time and energy, we'll visit the Pinhal da Paz forest reserve, where, besides the beauty of nature, you can spot forest deer up close.
Day 4
The Fiery Lake
If the weather permits, today we will travel for views over Lagoa do Fogo (Fire Lake) and descend to the tranquil beach, where we can relax and have lunch with a view.
After climbing back to the cars, we will continue to one of the most unique springs in the world – Caldeira Velha, where we will immerse ourselves in the hot water, completely surrounded by nature.
Day 5
Waterfalls and Chasms
On one of the most intriguing hikes, we will walk along a circular route that includes the Porto Formoso waterfall. Get ready for another dose of enchanting forests, ocean vistas, and exquisite waterfalls.
To round off the day, we will visit Ponta de Sintrao - the place where we can stand at the edge of a 100-meter cliff above the ocean and enjoy one of the most majestic views on the island.
Day 6
Arcadia and the Tea Factory
On this day, we will explore the forests of Lomba de São Pedro and the Arcadinha area, where we will encounter several more waterfalls.
After finishing the hike, we will stop by the Ribeira dos Caldeirões park - one of the most picturesque and Instagrammable spots on São Miguel.
The day will conclude with a visit to the only tea factory in Europe, where you can learn more about the tea production process, or simply stroll along the tea paths and take photos.
Day 7
Faial da Terra
The next stop is the Faial da Terra area, where we'll hike to the Salto do Prego waterfall.
On the trail, we'll have a close encounter with the local dinosaur mafia of chickens, roosters, and chicks, who roam freely and rule the local paths.
Day 8
Furnash and Grena
One of our favourite places on São Miguel is the town of Furnas, where you can see how Iceland meets Madeira - with hot geysers bubbling and steaming, surrounded by vast greenery.
We will visit the local Grena Park, where we will walk to Cascata do Grena and enjoy the nature that the locals have preserved here.
Besides the local dishes cooked underground, we will also have the opportunity to immerse ourselves in warm water and enjoy the local volcanic pools, surrounded by flora and fauna.
Day 9
Terra Nostra Botanical Garden
On the second day in Furnas, we'll have the chance to take a leisurely walk in one of the most unique botanical gardens in the world - Terra Nostra.
Dating back to 1780, it hosts flora from nearly every corner of the globe. At the heart of the park, there's a natural thermal pool with a brown hue (rich in iron), which you can enjoy from the inside. Just keep in mind that getting washed off afterwards might be a bit of a challenge :)
Day 10
A day free to explore
The last day of the programme can be free - for activities of your choice - whale watching, visiting a pineapple plantation, surfing, city walks, or another adventure that calls to you.
This is the perfect moment to explore the Azores according to your interests. We will assist you with recommendations and guidance.
Day 11
Flight to Bulgaria
On the final day, we pack our bags, charge our phones, and prepare for the long flights back home.
* Panic Frame & Travel reserves the right to adapt and change the program according to changes in accommodation conditions, climate, and other factors that require it.
