Things to do in Boa Vista, Boa Vista: The Best Day Trips from

August 26, 2021 Cedrick Jardin

The soundtrack of tranquil Boa Vista is the sweet tweets of exotic birds. Maybe they’re chattering with loggerhead turtles or with the humpback whales that are known to splash around Boa Vista’s shallow waters. Work up a sweat and hike to the wreck of the Santa Maria, or explore the Duque de Braganca Fort, built to protect the Ilheu de Sal Rei from pirates. The windswept red and tan sand dunes of Deserto de Viana are awe-inspiring.

Absolutely recommend Abel tours to everyone. Anita was very friendly and excellent at giving us plenty of information about the places we visited and Cape Verde in general. The experience itself was fantastic and we got to see everything we wanted in the South part of the island.

Had a great guide who took us on a very informative trip in a 4 X 4. We saw all the sights and were also some of the less visited sight. I recommend this trip.

Sal Rei Shopping, a cool drink or a walk through the capital Boa Vista Sal Rei? You decide! Shipwreck Cabo Santa Maria About stone and stone, it goes to the shipwreck. How long is the ship already there? For the Boa Vistians a piece of history. Look at the shipwreck before the sea eats it up! Rabil First stop in the pottery. Here you can still see real handicrafts and have the opportunity to buy souvenirs that come 100% from Boa Vista. Desert Viana Passing by donkeys and goats, we leave for the desert of Viana. Never stood in a desert. Then it's time! Learn from me where the sand is coming from. duration; about 4 hours

My husband actually stumbled across the tour from Trip Advisor and was in touch with Justin who had given us a low down of what we would be seeing and what to expect the day before. Justin was a really good tour guide. We really enjoyed being shown around by him. He explained the areas we were going to and made a real effort to get to know my husband and me. We had a lot of fun, good music and jokes on the way which made the journeys between each destination go quicker. We went to all the places which we wanted - Wreck of Santa Maria and Viana Desert and others. Taking a Private Tour was defiantly a better option than a group tour because were allowed to roam freely and really closely to attractions. The only reason why we have given this tour a 4 is because we had to prompt Justin to give us information on the areas we were visiting. Overall though we really enjoyed the trip. Thank you for showing us around the Island.

Communication with the manager via whatsapp was very good, despite the slightly makeshift look of the office everything felt absolutely professional. I made a reservation before our arrival and had to alter the deal slightly, the manager handled everything perfectly and was very forthcoming. The Renault Duster we rented left nothing to ask for, sure it had some visual signs of usage as expected for a car thats driven off road a lot, but despite of this it was 100% functional. Only slight downside was that we couldn't connect our smartphones to the stereo via bluetooth. I recommend bringing an Aux cable if music is important to you, just in case.
