Fantastic morning exploring Cape Verde - Fantastic guide who was great company as well as very informative. The sand surfing was great fun and we saw turtles swimming and a shark. Amazing beaches and plenty of time to enjoy. The tasting experience at the end was a great surprise !!!!! Really great value for money with a guide who really cares about the future of Cape Verde

Nice tour! Is recommended - It was a fun tour and that was also partly because of the cozy tour guide! She was cheerful and talked enthusiastically about the island. We have seen beautiful places and tasted nice drinks.

Amazing! Private, comfortable and excellent tour guide - Fantastic private tour! Very friendly and knowledgeable local guide. Picked up on time in a very comfortable air conned 4x4 (you'll see lots of other tour operators use open back vehicles, but we found it great to travel in comfort and style!) You take an exhilarating drive over the sand dunes, then to sandboarding (very fun but requires very good fitness to climb back up the slope), then driving further along to see the turtles, sharks (we didn't see any because it was too shallow and waves, but still learnt lots). Amazing caves and beach with plenty of photo opportunities - it was even better than the beach by our hotel. It was wonderful to finish off with local tasting in a quiet town. We asked lots of questions and our guide very informed to help us learn more about Cape Verde. This excursion was the highlight of our holiday and the tour guide was excellent. We would not hesitate to recommend.

Family run fun day! - I had the most amazing time on this tour. Super informative, fun and such a lovely half day out of the hotel! The tour is a family run business so I am glad I was able to book and help support. I have been recommending this tour to anyone who visits Boa Vista

Memorable trip! - Really good trip. Guides and drivers awesome ! Landscape and beaches were unreal. Sat in the back of the 4x4 was so much fun and like nothing we have ever done before. Really well organised and great route.

Visit - Because of the weather we could only see a turtle and we didn't see any sharks. For the value does not pay, but the guides were very friendly and is always a good experience
