Very good experience with Sonia, who explained a large part of the history of Cape Verde and the island of Sao Vicente to us. Superb island tour!

My husband and I took the half day tour of Sao Vicente in June. Sonya, our guide, was very knowledgeable and made our island experience very enjoyable. We highly recommend this tour.

Good tour, interesting things you see and good tour guide (Jamie). Markets and mountains were very enjoyable.

The tour was fun and very informative. Our guide was the best in the world I recommend anybody to take a tour with this company and ask for p

Highly recommend the company. We were supposed to dock at Mindelo, however we could not due to the weather. Greenline gave us a refund even though it has already passed the free cancellation window. We will definitely book with them again if we ever come to the island again.

Excellent trip. Our host had a wealth of knowledge and passion about the island. Very informative and interesting. Well worth the time spent.

Great informative tour Guide spoke very good English

This tour was a great opportunity to discover the cultural richness and local spirit of Mindelo and São Vicente. Sonia was a fabulous guide — full of energy, warmth, and great insights. She brought the city, its history, colors, markets, and everyday life to life in a very authentic way. We really enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend it.

Beautiful day to discover the island of Sao Vincente. The driver is very skilful on sometimes chaotic roads. And our guide, Aires, is great. He is very interesting and competent. He gave us a lot of information about the island, its people and their way of life. As well as many anecdotes about the places we visited. He speaks English, French, German and of course Portuguese. All participants (9) were thus able to exchange with ease. The landscapes and colors are fantastic. The choice of restaurant excellent. A very nice day, in good company and nevertheless at the Cape Verdean rhythm: no stress!! I highly recommend.

Travelers need to know that this was a great tour. Why? Because we had a great guide and a great driver. The day and the tour were perfect. All of us had a great time. The tour guide, Aires, was very knowledgeable of the Island and everything having to do with it. This tour is highly recommended.

Great progressive and friendly people, accepts all ethnicity with love and happy. Great country to see how they manage themselves and happy with what they have..

The tour was way too many people on tour. Sonia was an excellent tour guide but took a star off because the group was too large and we were expecting a private tour or a much smaller group. I think there was 21 peopke in a mini van

We had a lovely tour of Sao Vincente. I believe we saw the highlights and had a great explanation of the history and culture. Communication beforehand was excellent. All I all it, was a great tour.

From the moment we were picked up, everything was seamless and thoughtfully planned. Our guide was not only incredibly knowledgeable about the island’s history and culture, but also genuinely passionate about sharing the beauty of Cape Verde. It felt less like a tour and more like being shown around by a local friend.We explored the vibrant streets of Mindelo, full of music, color, and charm, and then ventured into the more remote parts of the island where the landscapes were absolutely breathtaking—dramatic coastlines, volcanic terrain, and stunning ocean views at every turn. Each stop felt intentional and unique, offering a perfect balance of culture, scenery, and relaxation.What truly set this experience apart was the attention to detail and the personal touches throughout the day. We never felt rushed, and there was plenty of time to take in the views, ask questions, and fully enjoy each location. The guide made sure we were comfortable, safe, and having an amazing time the entire day.If you’re visiting São Vicente, this tour is an absolute must. It’s the perfect way to experience the heart and soul of the island—and one we’ll be talking about for years to come

It was a great experience. I saw Mindelo with other eyes. The tour of the island was also wonderful and the guide and the driver very friendly, well informed. Thank you.
