    The hike was not very challenging, and we went at a good pace for enjoying all of the beautiful views. The guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. It was a nice reward to end the hike in Tarrafal at the beach.

  • Great to get out and see...

    Great to get out and see beyond the hotel. The scenery from the island drive was beautiful but the view from the hike even better - a bit of a climb up but worth it and downhill on way back! Enjoyed a refreshing swim and rest on the beach afterwards. Afi, our guide was great - patient, helpful and we laughed a lot!

  • Great tour in Santiago
