WELL WORTH YOUR MONEY AND TIME! GREAT TOUR - WELL WORTH YOUR MONEY AND TIME! We were here for 1 day due to a Cruise stop in Mindelo. We had a small group of 8 (Total of 10 with driver & guide) Full day of wonderful sights Very nice lunch (which is included) in a local restaurant served family style (extra if you want sodas, wine or beer) water is served (bottled) Small bus, not able to accommodate mobility scooters or wheelchairs as isle and Bus is narrow. Our day visit was March 17, 2024 a Sunday and the town of Mindelo was pretty much shut down. This tour takes place away from Mindelo. Highly recommend Pick-up for us was away from the ship on cruise terminal (right off the street) be proactive and look for your name (sigh)

Great tour to discover Sao Vicente, very enriching - We really liked this tour. Our French guide taught us lots of things about the places we visited and all the questions we had as we went along. We swam at Baia das Gatas. Lunch at Calhau was delicious. Ideal for discovering Sao Vicente beyond Mindelo.

Good tour guide - Danilson was an excelent guide Good toyr considering the lack of variation in Sao Vicente. However if you want to go to the beach and swim, thst in Mindelo is as good as it gets, no need to trek round to cabo das gatas.

Beautiful Island, Great Guide - This was our second tour in two days with Atlantur. We were again shown a lovely island with magnificent views by a wonderful guide. It was a Sunday, but my husband needed shaving cream. So our guide took us to a few places until we found a small market that was open and had the cream. We loved Cape Verde and both islands that we toured.

Very interesting tour with most important points of interest on the island - Jorge picked up us punctually at the port. First he showed us some interesting points in Mindelo and then we drove out of the city and he showed us some small fishing villages, the highest point of the island and also some beaches and a beautiful sand dune. We also ate in a local restaurant good fish. It was a very interesting tour, Jorge was very helpful and responded all our questions and we always had time to take photos. Only bad luck that we visited Mindelo on a Sunday, so unfortunately the markets were closed. Thanks Jorge for so a beautiful day in Sao Vicente

Our guide was friendly... - Our guide was friendly and eager to share his island home with us. Mindelo needs more investment to build this hidden gem into something that will benefit the people and the island economy

Too expensive ! - The tour was okay, but the price offered by TripAdvisor is way too high. There were people who had booked directly and who had paid almost twice as much! So wait until you are there and ask your hotel for example, or send a message to the organizer.

Fair round trip - There isn't a huge amount to see on Sao Vincente, but this tour takes in what there is. Option to swim at Baia das Gates for those so inclined. Trip up Monte Verde spectacular
