Buggy Tour of Boa Vista Island
Tour Options
When booking, you'll have the choice of 3 different options. All 3 include hotel pickup and drop-off, an English-speaking guide, and rental of a double off-road buggy.
These are the following options:
Tour of Northern Boa Vista (2 Hours)
After picking you up, we'll make our way to the base where we'll find the buggies that will take us to the north of Boa Vista Island. We'll assign you a vehicle and give you a safety talk. Helmets and protective gear on? Let's go!
Our first stop will be at Ponta do Sol, a scenic spot that we'll reach by driving along Via Pitoresca, a path off the main road in the middle of an oasis. After this, we'll reach a remote coastal area of wild beauty: Cape Santa María. Here, we'll be able to see a Spanish shipwreck that sank over 50 years ago.
The final stop will be at the imposing dunes in the Viana Desert. Get your cameras ready, as the desert landscape will be postcard-pretty.
- Schedule: this option is available at 2 pm
Tour of Southern Boa Vista (4 Hours)
If you want to spend more time on the buggy exploring the south of Boa Vista Island, this option is ideal for you. We'll drive in search of Praia de Chaves, a beautiful beach with white sand.
After this, we'll make our way to Praia de Verandinha to admire its cliffs while we drive the buggies towards the popular Santa Mónica Beach. This beach is the biggest on the island, extending across 18 kilometres (11 miles).
Next stop? The sand dunes and ruins in Curral Velho, which we'll reach by crossing Boca Beach. Driving the buggy along fun paths, we'll arrive at the historic Fonte Vicente to admire the iconic baobab tree on the island of Boa Vista.
- Schedule: this option is available at 9 am
Tour of Death Valley (2 Hours)
With this option, you'll have the chance to visit Cape Verde's so-called Death Valley. We'll begin driving our buggies towards Rabil, a small town rich in culture and fascinating history. This is the perfect stop to experience the essence of Cape Verde!
We'll continue our tour by crossing the Death Valley, a journey that will allow us to reach the oasis hidden in the middle of this enclave. This road is fascinating for its twists and elevation changes!
Lastly, we'll reach Fonte Vicente where we'll have a chance to relax while we admire its famous baobab tree and take some scenic photos.
- Schedule: this option is available at 2 pm
