Great tour

5.00With the tour we got a great overview of Sal. The most spectacular for me were the lemon sharks and the fatamorgana, simply because I like nature encounters. But also the small fishing villages and the salt pans are absolutely worth seeing. We were a mixed group and so our guide explained everything in Portuguese and English. You had enough time at the individual stations. It couldn't have gone any better.
Super Guide

3.00Reasonable enough tour but felt very rushed in the bits what would have been fun i.e snorkeling but by the time you would have got in you would then be being called back. Shark bay experience highlight of the tour a must the blue eye was amazing but again felt rushed and no guarantee it is something you will see as weather conditions need to be right and the salt pools worth a visit if never done it before. Tour guides very enjoyable and plenty of knowledge to go with it all in all some really great parts but could be improved as spent lots of time in areas where nothing to really see or do
Brilliant guide good experience

5.00Full day trip of Sal sat on the back of pickup 4 bucket seats on the back and 4 inside. Sun block essential and sun glasses. Off road better than road travel. No great distance between sites. Ed was a knowledgeable guide, very personable. Gave us a lunch menu and options so to pre order food. For us the bathing in the salt lake was a fabulous experience for my daughter th lemon sharks. A very satisfying day of experience.
Have a nice tour of the island

4.00We visited the main tourist points with our driver/guide Eder. Great guide. The tours are interesting even if for the most part they are paid. The only downside of the visit is the restaurant "imposed" at lunch which is extremely expensive considering the food and prices usually charged on the island.
