Get ready for an exciting photo tour of Sal’s top sights and hidden treasures in a pink pick-up truck with Franek Foto Tour. We’ll explore Sal Island’s famous places like Kite Beach, Buracona, Murdeira, and Salinas, both near Santa Maria and Pedra de Lume, the latter seen from an entirely unique perspective.
Beyond the conventional hotspots, I aim to reveal the island’s lesser-known yet incredibly beautiful locations. Part of our journey takes us off-road to areas accessible only by 4x4 or quad bikes. Our journey will also serve as a time machine, with visits to sites that hint at what Sal was once like, as well as an introduction to local medicinal plants. Should the sea’s condition allow, we’ll indulge in natural swimming pools.
Every tour I lead is unique and customised to my guests’ preferences, with flexible stops at each location based on your desires. So leave your timepiece behind at the hotel, but remember to bring your swimming gear, sun lotion, and camera!
