Excellent off road experience around all the sites of Cape Verde. - Excellent trip around Cape Verde. Real off-reading experience. Very friendly guide (Mo). No Limits are very professional. Vehicles were great fun. We did the 4 hour trip in the 1000cc buggies and loved it. Our girls are in their early twenties so could all take it in turns to drive. They thought it was brilliant.

“Speed, Scenery, and Unforgettable Moments – Our Epic December Journey!” - In December 2024, we embarked on a thrilling 3-hour journey, and it was absolutely incredible. The drive took us through breathtaking terrain, offering stunning views all along the way. At one point, we even hit a top speed of 110 km/h! It was, without a doubt, the best trip we’ve ever had. I will 10 out of 10 times recommend this trip for anyone visiting cap verde.

A unique way to sightsee! Great fun and a good laugh. Kit is excellent and the guides top notch. - We booked the 4hr 1000cc Buggy Tour and it was fantastic fun! We rambled all over the island predominantly off road but using some main road sections when crossing the island. We had great fun racing the Buggy across varied terrain, my partner and I both registered our licenses and each drove at different sections. Our guide Freddie was outstanding! Great conversation, full of knowledge and really funny. He also instilled confidence at all times; the pre-brief, any technical stops and during discussions of sections to be expected etc. After the initial section of driving with myself at the wheel we stopped off at a view point for a little fishing village and a change of driver. My partner took over at the wheel and we passed through the village and on to the coast to a nice rocky cave viewpoint where we stopped to hear about the island culture. After that we moved across the centre of the island to a stop at Terra Boa to experience a mirage, a volcano crater to hear about the salt pools and finally stopping at a bay on the east coast to see some Sharks and a shipwreck. Thankfully I got back behind the wheel (hopefully she won’t see this) and we hurtled back to base on the south coast for 40/45 minutes over some challenging but enjoyable terrain. We even had time to sneak in a section on an “off road park” for some real rallying but were told this isn’t standard so we were very thankful as I thoroughly enjoyed that section. All in all we had a great time, the kit was excellent and performed well, we feel we seen the whole island in all its facets and did it in a cool and unique way.

Sunny, sandy, and scenic fun! - We loved our morning blasting around Sal's sandy and gravel trails in the buggy. Definitely pleased to have gone for the 1000cc option - enough poke to excite and get squirmy off road. Our guide Fredy was funny, engaging, and knowledgeable, we had a great time and made some excellent memories.

Full throttle off road this is NOT! - If you want to see the island without being stuck on a tour bus this is an ok way to do it with friendly staff. However, if you are looking for an exciting, adrenaline filled activity this certainly is not it. The advertising would lead you to believe that you will be ripping through same dunes and flying along desert tracks, when the reality is you are lucky average anymore than about 25 kph. The tour is very strictly single file, follow the leader type organisation. We were pretty quickly reprimanded for not following directly behind the buggy in front of us. The stops were incredibly brief, and almost every stop we were told what we were looking at, but also that we don’t have time to visit properly. 95% of the route that we were taken on could have been driven in a 2 wheel drive hire car. In summary a reasonable half day out, but certainly not the adrenaline pumping adventure it’s advertised as.
