The tour was very well... - The tour was very well organised and thorough, and the team from Bu Country Tours was super accommodating and easy to communicate with. I was lucky enough to do this tour on my own with Alex, who taught me a lot about the culture and history of Cabo Verde. He was super informative and willing to answer all my questions, and he was generally a joy to spend the day with. Would absolutely recommend this tour!

Explore like a LOCAL! - After doing a full day Santiago Island Tour plus a workshop with Bu Country Tours, I had a second day well spent! This time, I explored Praia and the highlights of Cidade Velha, the country’s former capital. Maria, my guide and my photographer that day was such a fun lady to be with! Praia is such a wonderful city, full of colorful artworks on the houses and streets as well as full of sweet welcoming locals. It was indeed a great experience to dance and talk with them. Since Cidade Velha is the former capital of Cape Verde, there are a lot of places that can be explored here. We visited Fortaleza Real de Sao Filipe, Se Catedral, Pelourinho, Rua Banana, Nossa Senhora do Rosario Church, and Convento de Sao Francisco. This day tour is full of learnings! If you’re interested to learn more about Cape Verde’s history and culture, this tour is the perfect one for you!

Excellent tour and v easy going - Elton the driver and Ailtom the guide were super nice and accomodating. Ailtom knows his stuff and shares his knowledge in a really nice way. He is VVV patient with questions 🤓. The tour was comprehensive and was a great introduction to the recorded history of CV and Praia since the Portuguese arrived and up to independence and beyond

No expectations, and all went above and beyond - Gina was more than a tour guide but became a wonderful companion and friend the entire 2 days we spent together exploring Praia, Cidade Velha and the rest of Santiago island all the way up to Tarrafal! We'll miss her and there's definitely a part of us that looks forward to returning and keeping in touch!

Nice tour, comfortable transportation, great guide! - Our tour guide, Maria, was great! She was patient and handled my whole family beautiful (including helping my 70 yo mom keep up and rest when needed…). We got to visit some nice places and the restaurant where we had lunch had really great food.

Great time with Rita - Our tour with Rita was the highlight of our trip to Santiago! We fully enjoyed everything about it ! The Cidade Velha is a beautiful and peaceful spot worth to visit . Rita knew everything about the history of this place . Thanks again for this great experience!!!
