The best guide ever! - Me and my girlfriend we met Zenildo in Praia during our first day in Plateau. He proposed us several tours aroud Santiago and convinced us to take a full day tour by public bus. Next day he picked us up on time and we went to Sucupira "Bus station" in order to pick the colective to fowart to the intirior. About 40 min later we arrived at Luisa's house (a must see). Lyisa is so kind and she prepered a home made Kuskus to us. We really miss her fidjos as well. Then we continued to Assomada. Lukelly it was sutarday and we found the market opened. Our guide knew everyone and he is very knowledgeable explaning all types of vegetables we didnt knew. Next, we picked un other bus that took us to tarrafal beach passing though Serra Malagueta natural park. We enjoyd tge beautiful beach with No Stress vibe. After we picked the last bus that brought us back to Praia. We really recomend Zenildo, thank you for showing us your amazing island Like Locals!
