Customer Reviews
We had a great time with Hernani, doing a full day tour around Assomada and Tarrafal, visiting some spectacular places. Hernani is the perfect guide to show you around and connect with the local culture and stories. Thank you for a great time in this beautiful Island!
Jack is an amazing person, very friendly, always happy, and very knowledgeable about the island. He knows the best spots and the best times to visit them, always with great conditions. If you want to experience the island in an authentic way, while respecting the local community and nature, Jack is the right guide. With him, I saw beautiful landscapes, enjoyed great snorkeling, ate at the best places, and watched incredible sunsets. I highly recommend him.
My friend and I booked a tour ending in Principal. We had beautiful tour of the mountains and green foliage and plants. Hernani was a fantastic tour guide. Knowledgeable of the trails and local plants and culture, cut us fresh passionfruit. and took us to a beautiful swimming pool at the end of the hike. The price was more than reasonable given that it included transportation to and from hike site, and lunch and water was provided. Would definitely recommend to book a tour or hike with him.
