Great tour! - This was a wonderful hike trough the valley! Seen the kingfisher and seeing the mango's were ripe we had some mango's from the tree! Cicade velha was super interesting and my guide was very knowledgeable! Thank you very much for the tour!

An experience that could not have been better - Beginning with wonderful Deise at the end of my emailed questions, Bu Country and the experience they provided were a pleasure indeed. Kind things, and much appreciated things, done by Elton, our guide ... bringing a pristine Cabo Verde flag for fun precipice photos ... including laminated maps and photos to aid our understanding of Cabo Verde as we motored to our destinations ... picking, peeling, and serving the freshest tamarind possible ... climbing a tree and serving us delicious mango, sending a second along with us ... not rushing us at all, turning a four hour tour into six because Elida was very slow on the rocky path ... not cutting anything from our itinerary when he easily could have skipped many things once back to civilisation with the slow rocky path behind us ... caring for Elida and all of us at every step ... and smartly sending his co-guide Lucas along with two others on the tour who were not keen to go so slowly and had an appointment back on the ship. From start to finish it is hard to imagine our day being any better.

Wonderful valley hike and tour of the first town of Cape Verde - Great hike with a great guide. Beautiful views and rich history. Guide had good knowledge of the area and the driver was very accommodating and safe. Appreciated their flexibility.

Calabaceira - We did this hike through the Calabaceira (Baobab Valley) with Catia and it was worth it. It was very nice, we saw many plants and animals and the arrival at Cidade Velha was wonderful. After a break there we visited the fort. Very pleasant and personable people at Bu Country Tours. Good contact, reliable. Everything worked out fine.

Hiking through a green valley - We had a very nice tour with our guide Ricardo. He told us a lot about the valley and the flora and fauna. The tour was very well organized, we were picked up from the hotel and brought back after the tour. A clear Recommendation.

Great half day out - We had a great time with Ailton hiking the Calabaceira Valley - absolutely amazing! He is lovely and gave us lots of information and history on the way about the plants and wildlife, the region and Cape Verde in general. He patiently answered our many questions. The 400-year old baobab tree is incredible. Cidade Velha and the fort are interesting places to explore - we spent less time there at the end. Nilton was friendly and drove us around. The hike and tour starts early but finishes around midday/lunchtime, leaving you with the rest of the day to do other things. Alex was kind enough to arrange it for us last minute. Would definitely recommend this tour company!

Great - Everything was awesome from the start to the end. We had a good walk and a lot of interesting conversations. Some history, some monkeys, some good food.

A great hike in the Calabaceira Valley - The hike through the Calabaceria Valley was very beautiful. The flora and fauna and the great explanations made this hike unique.

Awesome Trek - it was another fun and interesting day in the company of Christianne and Ailton. Both explained about the plants and orchids of the island while walking down to the baobab tree which is over 500 years old. We ended our journey with a surprise cake from our amazing guides for the birthday of one of us. What a thoughtful touch. I recommend Bu Country Tours for anyone big or small visiting Cabo Verde.

Exceptional experience - Our guide Ailton was exceptional. He had so much knowledge of the area and nature we saw on our hike. This excursion was our favourite part of our entire holiday. I cannot recommend Ailton highly enough!
