In any case, a result - Quad tours are very nice activities. I would definitely take a private guide again, then you can design the tour individually. Don't forget to tip. If you bring some fruit with you, the guests will be very happy

Amazing tour experience - We had the most amazing trip with Danny as our guide. We loved the paddling with Lemon sharks and the salt water baths.
I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone going to Sal.

Great tour with good value for money - Had a really great tour of Sal led by Alssis. He is a really friendly and helpful guide, and was great at making sure we were all safe, comfortable and enjoying ourselves. We really enjoyed all the stops, especially seeing the lemon sharks! Thanks for a great time!

No stress - I have really enjoy the trip with Cabral, we have visited almost all the touristic places in Sal Island. Every place stopped in he gave us enough time to take pictures and even swim sometime and never been in harry . He make us more comfortable and created an atmosphere for the group to interact with each other.
I think in Sal Island it is better to take a day tour with Cabral, as he will take to all the spots. Also as the place à bit far from each other it will take more time to visit them by yourself and it will cost you even much more than the tour.

Epic day trip all around Sal - We had a fabulous day with our guide Alssis, he made sure we were all safe, gave us loads of information and laughs, and even took the trouble to take some really creative photos of everyone on the tour.
It felt like we really saw the majority of the island and ticked off all the sights we wanted to see :)
The only partial negative was where we had lunch, it was quite a sterile restaurant in Espargos, rather than a real genuine Cape Verdian experience. However it was tasty and nice to sit down in the group and chat to everyone.
