Bike & Hike

Very strong headwinds for cycling, bikes adequate but not great. The cycle back with tail winds was easy! Our guide was knowledgeable and informative, we learned about Cape Verde’s tourist industry and about the need (as is everywhere) to find a balance between tourism and conservation. The view from the hilltop is beautiful and totally worth the short steep climb. Take water and sun protection and maybe a snack .

Great to experience the protected areas of Sal close up. Great scenery and wonderful views at top of hill at the end of the walk. You need a reasonable level of fitness. Its about a 10km cycle and then 20 min walk up the hill at the end. On the way out you are cycling into north East trade winds which never stop. But much easier on the way back with the wind behind you! Guide was helpful and thoughtful sharing local insights into the environment and culture.

This is a great 3 hour excursion. Includes a little tour of Santa Maria about local life before a ride to kite beach and a walk up the mountain by the zip line. I enjoyed seeing the area without causing the environmental issues that quad bikes bring. Great knowledgeable local guide. And great to be active on bikes and walking

Guide great. Itinerary as stated. No helmets offered (but also we didn’t ask)

The guide was knowledgeable and answered all our questions. My bike got a puncture the guide soon had it sorted. Needs to be advertised more as this trip was not on the hand out from tui rep at hotel.

No one showed up and we are still waiting for refund
