Overview

This half-day tour is the best introduction to São Vicente, Cultural Capital of Cabo Verde and the birthplace of Cesária Évora, our beloved “Barefoot Diva.” You'll explore Mindelo, a lively port city buzzing with music, art, colorful markets, cafés, and a rich cultural scene. Known for hosting the country's best Carnaval and festivals, Mindelo offers an authentic taste of island life.

Venture beyond the city to take in breathtaking views from Monte Verde, the island’s highest point, and visit picturesque coastal villages where hospitality and local traditions thrive. Along the way, we’ll share stories, history, and glimpses into daily life, with plenty of stops for photos, exploring, and even a relaxing tea or coffee break.

This is a fun, laid-back, and memorable day—a chance to soak up the true spirit of São Vicente, meet its friendly people, and enjoy the stunning mix of sea, mountains, and culture that make this island so special.
