Highlights

Four islands, one journey: from the UNESCO World Heritage streets of Cidade Velha to a night inside the crater of Fogo, an active volcano, then the green valleys and cliff paths of Santo Antão. Climb Pico do Fogo to 2,829 m, follow paved paths through sugarcane and coffee terraces, and finish with a free day by the sea in Mindelo.

This is a luxury, fully guided journey. Your local guide, private-vehicle transfers, luggage transfers, inter-island flights and ferries are all arranged, so you can concentrate on the walking. Hike the Paul Valley, the Janela and Penedo valleys and the Cruzinha to Ponta do Sol coast, and end with a tour of São Vicente.

As we cannot eliminate all sources of carbon emissions for our tours, we have decided to donate €10 per client to high impact pro-climate nonprofits recommended by the world's leading climate charity evaluators.
