Cape Verde walking holidays
This archipelago made of 10 small volcanic islands is the dream destination for a walking holiday. Thanks to our Cape Verde walking tours across some of the most diverse landscapes, from very dry desertic plains with wonderful white sandy beaches, to lush green vegetation on the flanks of the many volcanoes, you will discover by foot that the Cape Verdean archipelago is a wonderful place to enjoy what would certainly be your best ever walking trip: thanks to its friendly locals, a very unique culture and history both linked to Portugal and Africa (Cape Verde is the very first Créole country), a variety of fauna and flora, but also landscapes from an island to another, are the core ingredients for a successful relaxing and active holiday destination.
