It was brilliant and we saw most of what there was to be on Boa Vista. The guide (Cleiton, from Bu Country Tours) was extremely knowledgeable and highly informative, as well as clearly knowing the roads (and dirt tracks) around the island like the back of his hand. We really could not have had a better guide - exceptional. We spent half the day looking round at the main sights, and even had some additional aspects, such as sand boarding in the desert when my daughter and I asked if we could and Cleiton went over to another party nearby to ask if we could borrow their sand boarding. Everywhere is so laid back, and the trip was an utter delight. Well done to all involved and enormous thanks to Cleiton.

Very good trip. In the morning we were brought to a wrong place(st. Monica beach instead of shipwreck), but they fixed on the same day afternoon. Very friendly driver and tour guide . Very special experience in the desert

You will enjoy it. Our guide Laurie, was very engaging, told us loads around each stop we made, is a very bubbly character, which made a trip all the more enjoyable. Our driver Elton, was an excellent driver, we felted very safe on some tricky roads/tracks. The car had air-conditioning which we were most grateful for. We did the morning four hr trip, although my fault as we were not where we thought the pick up would be, every way had been made to contact me ( no internet) but once we made our way back to reception Laurie was happy to see us, and laughed at the error ( mine) Viator is an excellent company to book your trips though, I have now booked in Cape Verde, Japen, Australia with no problems at all. Would definitely recommend this trip for a nice break from hotel, to see a little of Cape Verde.
