Overview

We offer fantastic guided walking holidays in Cape Verde.

Most routes on our walks on the islands of Santiago, Fogo and Santo Antao are on cobbled paths that link the villages of the interior but some are on sand and cinder tracks.

Our daily guided walks vary in length from 2 to 6 hours and can be tailored to your needs, whether you’re a slow or fast walker, want to climb a volcano or prefer to walk along a coastal path. Our guided walking holidays suit everyone!

You will have a different Cape Verdean walking guide on each island. Most of them were born on the island and know all the paths like the back of their hand. They also have extensive knowledge of the local flora and fauna, and through them, you get to know a lot about the culture and customs of Cape Verde.

Being accompanied by a guide is like walking with a celebrity, they know most of the people they encounter during the hike and always have time for a little chat with the locals that cross your path.

It’s also a great opportunity to interact with the locals. Even if you don’t speak their language (Creole), a simple ‘Bom Dia’, shaking of hands, and a lot of smiling, is always much appreciated.

Our walking holidays (ideal in January, February and March) are without a doubt the best way to explore Cape Verde.
