Good contact information before the visit. Pick up on time at my hotel. Nice visit consistent with the description. I recommend.
Very organized tour. The guide tour Ricardo was amazing full of knowledge. All our question got answered
This is probably the best way to explore the island in one day. Many interesting places, tasty food, and unforgettable memories!
The guide in charge of English knew only the most banal information, the program is also very superficial - pure bus ride to the various stations and long unnecessary stay at the Couscous workshop....read more
very beautiful island, the most beautiful Cape Verde, very beautiful setting, with very good activities. The meal was delicious, I loved the cake activity and the music played.
