Memorable experience. Please visit Tarrafal. - Everyone was very helpful and professional. Very good boat tour, the boat guide was from Tarrafal and he really knew the area history and had a real proud for his land. The lunch with fresh tuna was amazing. The driver and the guide were always available and very professional. Congratulations to the organisation. It was a great family moments knowing Trarrafal and his culture.

Amazing experience - Tour guides were fantastic, during the car trip they told me a lot about Cabo Verde's history, it was very interesting to hear from their point of view about their history, their culture and their current situation. The scenery along the way from Praia to Tarrafal are various, from the greenlands to the top of the mountains, and then down again towards the sea. Tarrafal has a beautiful beach, and the boat trip to the lighthouse may be short, but worth it: you can almost taste the beauty of the clean and transparent sea while riding on this fishermen's little boat. Incredible experience, highly recommended!
