Until recently Cape Verde's beauty was largely
kept a secret – the long beaches of endless
white sand, lapped by turquoise ocean: the historical
mystery of colonial style towns like Ribeira Grande
the first European City in the tropics: the wide
variety of landscapes – from dramatic volcanic
– to lush and verdant.
Nowadays, the Cape Verde islands
are opening up to tourists, especially holiday makers
searching for a rich blend of fresh holiday experiences.
Even the Cape Verde people are unique, being a cultural
mix of their two nearest neighbours – Senegal
and Brazil, this combination is most obvious in the
ever-present Cape Verde music; a scintillating hip-swinging
fusion of Samba and Salsa sprinkled with tribal African.
If you enjoy fine beaches, beautiful
scenery, vibrant cultures and have a sense of adventure
Cape Verde will not disappoint.

About
Us
We aim to provide a bespoken
service to our travellers. As our name suggests,
we are committed to developing this young country,
where one third of its 450,000 population are
still attending school. Our experience extends
to 15 years continued promotion of this archipelago
of nine islands. Our working knowledge of the
islands enables us the opportunity to form travel
arrrangements for our travellers to island hop,
to make the most of their time and enjoy the rich
variety on offer in Cape Verde. The traditional
static holiday on the white sandy beaches are
also available in the popular 'all-inclusive'
or traditional hotels offering bed and breakfast.
You are invited to study our brochure or our website,
select a holiday and without hesitation, contact
us with your specific requirements, including
Special Needs. It is anticipated that our new
premises in Mindelo, Sao Vicente will co-ordinate
all island services including hotel reservations
and tours, visiting cruise ships and/or advice
on Real Estate.
