  For attention of Edgar Pleased to say that our family experienced excellent service from your company. Our airport transport to and from the hotel was on time and comfortable. In particular we greatly enjoyed the island tour. The open top transport made exploring the island more exciting. Our guide Scoobie was excellent with his knowledge and friendly approach in looking after us. We would very much recommend the tour especially the shark experience.

  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had such a wonderful time on our tour with Kukuya from Union Tours in Sal, Cape Verde! He was incredibly friendly and patient, and made everyone feel comfortable right from the start. He took some truly beautiful pictures for us, kept us laughing the whole way through, and really made the experience unforgettable. To top it all off, when my glasses fell off the truck, he went the extra mile—literally—to run back and get them for me! Such genuine kindness and dedication. Highly recommend Kukuya and Union Tours (Edgar) for anyone visiting Sal—you’ll be in great hands!

  

• Thank you Edgar, Daniel & Union tour

  I found Edgar Pires’ contact information through a Facebook group and contacted him via WhatsApp. From the beginning Edgar was a great help to me, both to book the excursion and to provide me with general information about the island of Sal. His colleague Daniel, our guide on the day trip to the island, was also extremely friendly. I cannot recommend enough the services of Union Tour and Edgar. Greetings from 🇧🇪🩵

  We booked a whole private tour with Union Tours prior to arriving Sal, Cape Verde. We also booked a number of other excursions through Edgar Pires including night turtle walk, monster truck, zipline and horse riding. All handled impeccably by Edgar. The actual tour is a must see as you get to visit a number of attractions Sal has to offer including Sleeping Lion mountain, Blue Eye Cave, Mirage, Salt Mine and Shark Bay. Other tour guide and driver Afonso and Victor were very knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. I cannot recommend booking though Union Tours and Edgar enough. They will arrange a everything and make suggestions as to what is available on the Island. Massive thank you to Edgar and team!

  We booked our tours via Edgar Piras on the beach at Hotel RIU Santa Maria, he sits by the lighthouse every day 10am - 4pm he is such a lovely young man, very helpful and will always be available to help you what ever you need, good restaurants, bars, shops he will advise. Our full day island tour was amazing and our guide was fantastic, we did so much and was given so much information about the island and the main town as well as the development from Shanty Town to buying their own property. I cannot recommend Edgar and his team enough, they are all truly fantastic. I also book subs diving and turtle walk with him, it was amazing and we go home with the most unforgettable memories of Sal, of Cabo Verde and especially the people. We will be back one day. Thank you Edgar and your team 5* all day long. Hakuna Matata NO STRESS

  Thank you so much Edgar Pires for making our Cape Verde holiday so special 🇨🇻 We all LOVED the Safari Island tour in our private Jeep 😎 What an amazing day….lemon sharks, salt lakes, blue eye etc….. it was all stunning, breathtaking, and interesting. Our guide was knowledgeable and an excellent driver on the difficult terrain. He was also a brilliant photographer, but we found that the photographs we were offered, although excellent, were overpriced. Our teenagers also booked separately dune buggies and Jet skis - at a discounted price from Edgar 🤩 Highly recommend Edgar Pires…friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and reliable. A LEGEND 🌟 Contact Edgar by WhatsApp before you travel or meet him at the lighthouse on the beach (10-11:30) at RIU Palace Santa Maria. No stress 😎😎😎😎😎

  Edgar you made our holiday absolutely unforgettable. Genuine and honest guy with a true interest in making the best choice for individual needs. I would recommend everyone to use Union Tours. Five stars isn’t enough, the knowledge and enthusiasm is incredible. We did 3 trips, the private island tour including lemon shark experience, blue eye and salt lake… compared to booking with TUI where each are trips separate! We did the half day Sodande catamaran cruise, fantastic for a family, the energy on board was dynamic! We also did the ebike guided tour, this was truly amazing. Memories were made because of these wonderful trips, and we didn’t have to remortgage the house to pay for them! 😜incredible value for money, can’t recommend enough ⭐️🌟⭐️🌟⭐️

  I was in communication with Edgar before we arrived in CV. Organised our island tour. Excellent knowledge and communication. Helder our guide was brilliant. We had an amazing day. Edgar even arranged for a taxi to take me to OSPA. A credit to your company.

  What a great day with our guide Helder - a lovely guy. He gave us a really informed, interested and interesting tour of the island and made it a lot of fun. He was patient and flexible to our needs throughout, giving us more time in some places when we wanted it. The lunch stop off was excellent too. Highlights: the shark bay and salt mine swimming/floating, and the blue eye bay. Helder gave us an insight into life on the island too and some history and thoughts about the culture, how things are changing as more visitors come. An Excellent day and I'd really recommend.
