“Super nette Tourenleitung mit Nicole, die uns geduldig alle Fragen auf Deutsch beantwortet hat. Auf den Pickup‘s ist es teils schon sehr anstrengend, vor allem Richtung Schiffswrack.

“Wij waren samen met gids Vera en chauffeur Bernardo op stap. De groep bestond mooi compact uit 4 personen. De gids Vera nam alle tijd en wist veel te vertellen over het eiland en Kaapverdië in het algemeen. Chauffeur Bernardo heeft ons op een veilige manier de mooiste plekjes van het eiland laten zien.
