Holiday Reviews

 'What a place - we really enjoyed ourselves! Boavista and the Migrante guesthouse were both wonderful, everything just great...people, beaches, accommodation, food. The highlight was Fogo, especially Cha Das Caldeiras. The climb up the Big Pico with guide was hard but so rewarding. I found the warmth of the children in the two villages just amazing, they even taught me a few Creole words! The photos I have of a whole group of them with us I'll treasure. Despite no hot water at the Pousada Pedra Brabo, the French owner Patrick made us so welcome. So all together we had a really memorable holiday, for which we must thank you very much. Your suggestions for our itinerary were well made'

'Our holiday was absolutely fantastic, a real adventure - and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. Hotel Odjo D'Agua was a good choice because of superb service, very short walk to shops and restaurants, the only hotel we saw with it's own private beach which is entirely sheltered from the wind. We can really recommend this hotel and its restaurant. There is some building work beside the hotel at the moment - we didn't find this at all intrusive and it doesn't impede access along the beach. Tino was very efficient and helpful on a day island tour of Sal - a great day out. All in all we had a great time - many thanks to you and your team'

'Thank you to you and your team for putting together a super itinerary. You asked us what we wanted and you gave us exactly that. We were able to experience the real Cape Verde as well as the beach resorts. The choice of hotels and pensions were good and it all went like clockwork, with the seven domestic flights, transfers and ferry crossings'

'Our recent holiday was indeed a holiday with a difference. We have returned from an exceptional two week break in May, visiting six of the ten Cape Verde islands. Each island was different - ranging from rolling sand dunes on Boavista and a volcanic mountain on Fogo, to stupendous mountain scenery on Santo Antao. The tour proved to be very enjoyable with the added dimension provided by the leader, the proprietor of Cape Verde travel, Mr Ron Hughes. Wherever we went 'Mr Ron', as he was known locally, was warmly greeted by the locals. He also provided us with a sympathetic insight into the lives of the people as well as the country's history. This we have never experienced before to such a degree. The weather was excellent, hotels all different but good and 'Mr Ron' knew the best places to eat, even to sampling the local dish 'cachupa'. It was a holiday we would warmly recommend'
