Simply amazing! - We took a 4x4 tour in Boa Vista to see the iconic shipwreck and visit the stunning Santa Monica beach, and it was an unforgettable experience! Though I was a bit disappointed we didn’t spot any turtles, the trip more than made up for it with the beauty and adventure we encountered along the way. The highlight was definitely the shipwreck, which stood as a haunting but fascinating reminder of the island’s maritime history. It was incredible to see it up close, and the guides shared fascinating stories about its past and how it came to rest on the shores of Boa Vista. The drive through the island was an adventure in itself, with the 4x4 bouncing over rugged terrain and offering fantastic views of the landscape. The guides were fantastic—both very knowledgeable and welcoming. They shared not only facts about the places we visited but also insights into the culture and daily life of the island. Their enthusiasm and passion for Boa Vista were contagious. Santa Monica beach was the perfect end to the tour. It’s one of the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever seen—endless white sands stretching into crystal-clear waters. The guides allowed us some time to relax and enjoy the scenery, which felt like paradise. All in all, this tour is highly recommended to anyone visiting Boa Vista. It’s a great mix of adventure, history, and natural beauty, made even better by the friendliness and professionalism of the guides. Even without the turtles, it was a fantastic day out!

Highly recommend - Great way to explore and experience some of the wonders Boa Vista has to offer! Our guide was very informative, so friendly and gave us a great insight into the island and life here. Would highly recommend, can't praise enough! As an FYI most of this tour is off road and a bit bumpy going, completely fine for us but worth knowing!

We saw so much of the island and also what happens on this island. Jason our guide was brilliant and explained all the information to us in great english. To top it off we saw turtles and sharks.

A beautiful day on Boavista - Kai Andrea and her team showed us beautiful places on Boavista: turtles, rare birds, sand dunes, caves, the most beautiful beach, a meal together with cocktails. All questions were answered. We had a lot of fun together. Bea and Jürgen from Berlin

Very Unprofessional - Good at explaining the country, but the guide was very unprofessional, came late, was always on the phone, ran errands during the trip, and didn’t follow the itinerary, so we didn’t get to spend the time advertised at each stop. We strongly recommend doing it with TUI; they follow the itinerary correctly, and meals are included.
