    Excellent, personalized tour, which definitely can be recommended. Little misunderstandings due to vouchers not always corresponding to the tour plan. Thx to very good communication with Bu Country Tours on the spot, the questions could be solved. Communication per WhatsApp ist great, provided you have Internet, which was not always the case, f.e. in Cha das Caldeiras, the Internet was not always working and this was exactly the moment, when confusion with the vouchers and the tour program became evident. With the exception of Fogo, the hikes started rather late (10:00 o´clock or later), when it was getting quite hot already. Suggestion: On the long decent from Cha das Caldeiras to Pai Antonios through wonderful countryside, it would be interesting to visit a plantation or farm and learn a bit about the life of the population there. Sometimes too much time spent with lunches in restaurants. On the last evening in Praia, I would have expected a more authentic restaurant with music and not one of the chique clubs for the jeunesse dorée. Best regards, Ursula Fahringer

    It is certainly a pleasure to recommend Bu Country Tours as an outstanding tour operator in Cape Verde. From start to end, Admilson and his professional team made my recent trip there an amazing experience. Santiago is a beautiful island, and they made sure every detail was properly covered, including delicious local food! I can hardly wait to return to Cabo Verde and discover some of the other islands with the guidance of Bu Country Tours. Thanks Admilson & team for your excellent performance!
