Why us

The curated trip, without the curated markup

Half the price, not half the trip

The big operators quote $3,500–$4,000 for Cape Verde. We run the same privately-guided idea for about half, by working directly with our own people in Santiago and Sal.

A local guide on every island

Every touring day is led by a born-and-raised guide who actually lives there. Kriolu, Português, English, and the corners that never make the guidebook.

24/7 support, the whole trip

Someone on the ground you can reach at any hour. If a flight moves or plans wobble, we've usually fixed it before it's even your problem.

Flights? We'll help you sort them

International airfare isn't included, you'll get the best fare booking your own, but we'll help you find the right flights, and we handle the inter-island hop.

“Cidade Velha with a guide whose grandmother grew up there. You can't Google that.”

“Half the price I was quoted elsewhere and somehow more personal. Floated in a volcano. Unreal.”

★★★★★

“Our flight got shifted and they'd already rearranged everything before we landed. The 24/7 thing is real.”
