    Review of: Canoeing at Furnas Lake

    We took a full day tour of Furnas, with Terra Nostra Park, hot thermal pool swim and canoeing at Furnas lake. It was winter and we were the only ones. The place is amazing (reason why they call it Mystic Furnas)! After an hour wondering...More

    Whales and dolphins!
    Review of: Half-Day Whale and Dolphin Watching Tour

    Did a half day tour booked through my hotel. Was an amazing sunny day and the water was calm. Saw 3 different sperm whales and a couple pods of dolphins. The views and the guides were great.
