Which countries can I start the individual hiking tours from?
From practically any country in the world. You can choose whether to arrange the flights yourself or have us help you with them.
What is the difference between a group tour and an individual hiking tour in Cape Verde?
On a group tour you travel in a small group with other participants, and the trip follows a fixed, detailed programme – timings, route and accommodation. On an individual hiking tour only you (and your partner, if you are travelling together) are on the tour, on a date of your choosing. You can also adapt the trip to suit you personally by talking it through with the travel advisers.
What makes a walking holiday in Cape Verde special?
A walking holiday in Cape Verde combines tropical green landscapes with mountain ridges, volcanoes, Atlantic coastline, white and black sand beaches and encounters with local culture. The islands are ideal for nature lovers who want to experience somewhere unspoilt – far away from mass tourism.
Which Cape Verde islands are suitable for an individual walking holiday?
Santo Antão, Fogo, São Nicolau and Santiago offer varied walking routes – from coastal paths to highland trails through cloud forest, volcano ascents and lava fields. The routes can be combined to suit you.
What equipment and preparation make sense for a walking holiday in Cape Verde?
You will need sturdy walking boots, sun protection, a refillable water bottle, light clothing as well as something warmer, and possibly trekking poles. Some walks can last up to six hours or more – so a good level of fitness is recommended.
When is the best time for a walking holiday in Cape Verde?
The best time to travel for a walking holiday in Cape Verde is from October to June. In this period the weather is settled and dry, the temperatures are pleasant and the paths are in good condition – ideal for long walks. More on this: best time to travel and climate.
Which hotels and accommodation can I choose from on a hiking tour?
For hiking tours there are various hotels, guesthouses, eco-lodges and typical local accommodation available – often centrally located, with a view of the sea or the mountains. Many offers include breakfast or half board. We will advise you personally on the best options on each island.
