A great morning island tour! - Wow, we had a great morning out! “J” (will never spell your name correctly sorry) our tour guide, loved her country and knew everything about it and was just so lovely. You won’t get a better guide on the island. We took in culture (pottery making and the fish market) landmarks (sand dunes and shipwreck) and ended at a bar at the harbour for drinks, all at a pace and flexibility to suit us. We even had our own private photographer! Great value for money, go on it you won’t be disappointed 👍

Vape verde half day tour - Our tour guide Jamal (sorry if I got the name wrong) was amazing! Really great at storytelling the sites that we saw along with getting the historical facts right. He was really easy going, and adapted to us especially as we had a 1year old and a 4 year old with us. Would definitely recommend!

Fantastic Trip around North Boa Vista - We booked the trip on the website which was very easy to do. We made a request for us to sit in the front of the truck as I have mobility problems. We set of of from the hotel and from the beginning we were not disappointed. First to Sal Rei where we did a bit of shopping and then off to the Fatima Chapel and some breath taking drives through the desert and some fabulous views. Our driver was very good and helpful. Definitely recommend this trip

Highly recommended! - Very nice tour! Nice guide who could tell us a lot about Boa Vista. We drove to a shipwreck (bumpy road, but that makes it fun), visited the dunes and made a stop in Rabil where we could take a look inside the pottery where all the souvenir turtles are made. You can sit on the back of the car or just in the car. Enough time along the way to get out, take some photos and stop at beautiful places. Definitely recommended :D
