Very nice experience with a group and a super nice guide. The explanations about the beginnings of the Cape Verde , slavery ... are very interesting Thank you!
A nice tour! Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and explained everything clearly. He took us to all the key spots and made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. Highly recommended!
Nice visit with Lisandro. He was great as a guide and the tour was great. Explanations to his help, everything was impeccable!
This excursion was really good. My guide, Bamba, gave me a lot of information about the history of the city and the fortress and answered all my questions. The vegetation around Cidade Velha is very beautiful. I highly recommend this tour!
Superb excursion!! Cathia with another guide showed us Praia. They allowed us to learn more about the history of Cape Verde. We visited some beautiful places. If you want to learn the history of Cape Verde I recommend this authentic and very well organized excursion
Elton is very knowledgeable with a great sense of humor. He gave us lots of time to take photos and even allowed us to purchase souvenirs at the market with no complains. Even gave us a quick break and had bbq chicken at the park. Also, got a chance to interact with the kids at the plaza. Advise for future Viator bookers: Bring water and do not leave it in the car, you’ll definitely need it. Don’t make the same mistake like us haha! Much respect to Ahérton as well for providing the transportation. He was an angel at the right place at the right time. He helped us out when we landed at the airport to get to our hotel because our driver didn’t show up and we do not know how to communicate Portuguese. Coincidentally, he was our driver on our tour guide. People in Praia Cape Verde are very welcoming, accommodating and friendly. Permitted to have more time to spend on the island, we would’ve. Thank you again for these hardworking folks!
Though I was picked up a bit later than my scheduled time but my Guide Ivana was wonderful and made up for it. She was knowledgable, friendly and accomodating. It was a tour to see some major attractions of Praia. I recommend going on this tour. Thank you Ivana for a good tour.

Everything was perfect, two experienced guides, Very well prepared in the history of Cabo Verde, very pleased with everything
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that everything was perfect and that you enjoyed the tour with our experienced guides. It's wonderful to know that their knowledge of Cabo Verde’s history made the experience even better for you. We look forward to welcoming you back for more adventures in the future!
I really enjoyed this tour and learning about the history and culture of Praia and Cidade Velha. Our guide was prompt, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. My only critique would be to include more about African history, contributions, and culture during the tour. It was heavily focused on Europe.
Thank you for your feedback! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the tour and appreciated the knowledge and friendliness of our guide. Your suggestion to include more emphasis on African history and contributions is invaluable, and we will certainly take it into consideration to enhance the cultural depth of our tours. We hope to welcome you back for another enriching experience in the future!
