Sal Experiences - superb! - If you only do ONE tour when visiting Cape Verde, then people - PLEASE DO THIS ONE! We booked the Sal Experience - and were brilliantly hosted on our tour by Luis and driven by George. The trip was seamlessly put together, there was plenty of time with the Lemon sharks - adorable! - the trip to the Salines and then finally the Blue Eye. We were collected from our hotel promptly, did the tours superbly and were back at exactly the drop off time. Luis' English was PRETTY good - not perfect, but easy to understand. He was humorous and attentive. He also knew his stuff and gave us a detailed view of life on Cabo Verde. George the driver didn't say to much. but navigated the roads - AND OFF ROADS! - superbly. NB: we had planned to hire a car to visit the Lemon Sharks, Blue Eye etc etc - nothing stopping you doing that but YOU WILL NEED A 4 X 4 as the off roading is something else. Far better to knacker someone else's suspension rather than yours. So, this trip is DEFINITELY recommended. Brilliant morning with Luis and George. Go and experience these places people - you will 100% enjoy. Thank you to Luis and George - brilliant.

Try this excursion - Cool to swim in Saltsjön. The lemon shark babies were very close to their legs. The blue eye you only saw a little, wrong season now. Nice guide, Ki.

Island tour with Nany - Nany was our guide today. What a cheerfully funny boy this is. He showed us the island and told us a lot about it. Just keep it up.

Wrong booking but great service - Unfortunately I made a mistake with the booking (we were on a different island) and didn't realise until the day of the trip. It was entirely my fault but their customer service was first class and they arranged a full refund for us. Thank you.

I highly recommend! - This tour allowed to know the most important points of the island. The trip was made safely, in a comfortable carriage. We had a great guide (Kiki), who kept the good mood and made the tour even more enjoyable

Well Planned Tour - This half-day tour allow guests to visit most of the major attractions on the Island of Sal. Plenty of time was given for people to explore each attractions, and to swim at the Salinas.
