Really simple to book over e-mail with Anita. Much more reasonable than TUI. Emmanual was fantastic, really friendly, local knowledge and no pressure etc . to buy things. We had a private tour which was much cheaper than the tour operator, and I'd rather our money go straight to the locals. Definitely recommend.!!!!!!!

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.

Why Turtle Watch with Abel Tours? A professional, well-rehearsed team where unnecessary running on the beaches falls away. Since we work with radio and send the guys ahead with whom we are in constant contact. You will be picked up by us at about 18.00 clock from the hotel or your holiday accommodation. After about an hour's drive, we will reach the reserve on the east coast of Boa Vista, where 80% of the oviposition takes place. I ask you to put on good shoes, to wear dark and warm clothes! Sometimes we have to be patient, depending on when we can observe the oviposition, we are back at about 23h.

Inclusions: Entrance to the nature reserve

 Starting with a stop at Ribeira do Rabil, rich in vegetation and water we then drive to Povoação Velha, the oldest town of the island, already existing at the end of the 16th century. After a short 15min stop in this small village, from there we then drive to the breath-taking beach at Santa Monica 18 km of virgin beach, pure nature, considered one of the most beautiful in the world where there is the possibility to have a swim (depending on sea conditions). On the way back we pass by the beautiful and almost wild Praia da Varandinha, with its caves carved by the sea, and we finish in style with a passage through the magnificent dunes of Morro D’Areia.

I went on the catamaran tour with my husband and our 15 years old soon. We were delighted with the catamaran, the beautiful views, snorkelling, fishing with the line and dancing! The animation was very funny, my husband who never dances, and here he could not :)! Everything was wonderful! My greetings to the catamaran team and the Barracuda team.

We were two people only on this tour and so, we could get interesting information on Cabo Verde when talking to the guide. However, the program of the tour is not flexible and adapted to the participants but has fixed stations. We enjoyed to visit the desert in the middle of the island, looks like Sahara and not many people there. The pottery at Rabil was ok but many tourists and not much to be seen - we did not see how the pottery was produced, it was just sold. We did not like the visit to Povoacao Velha, were several shop owners tried to urge us to buy something. At Praia de Chaves which is beautiful with its caves there were crowds of tourists with Quads. We liked Santa Monica Beach, which is not overcrowded and beautiful. This was also the last place of our trip and definitely deserved a visit. The Boca Beach restaurant would not be our first choice for lunch as it it quite expensive but there is no alternative.

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.
