Highlights
  • Tijdens een wandeling door Sal Rei en het strand van Diante bekijk je de attracties
  • Je bezoekt het Museum dos Naufràgos en snuffelt rond op de lokale markt
  • In het Cultuurhuis van Sodade proef je Kaapverdische specialiteiten
  • Vanuit de gerestaureerde Fatima kapel heb je een episch uitzicht op de Atlantische Oceaan
  • De tour wordt geleid door een deskundige lokale gids met een ongeëvenaarde kennis van Boa Vista
Dit kun je verwachten

Met een mix van Afrikaanse, Braziliaanse en Portugese invloeden is de hoofdstad van Boa Vista, Sal Rei, een uitbarsting van kleur. Op deze exclusieve tour proef je Kaapverdische specialiteiten, bezoek je gezellig drukke lokale markten en krijg je een rondleiding langs de meest interessante locaties van de stad. Artur, een van onze deskundige lokale gidsen, zegt: "Sal Rei is Portugees voor Zoutkoning. Deze naam verwijst naar waar de stad in het verleden beroemd om was. Overal in de hoofdstad zie je nog zoutpannen, hoewel de meeste niet meer gebruikt worden. En aan de rand van de stad zijn sommigen zelfs bebouwd.”

Als eerste bezoek je de onlangs gerestaureerde Fatima kapel - een afgelegen heiligdom op een heuveltop net ten noorden van Sal Rei. Vanaf hier heb je een geweldig uitzicht over Atlantische Oceaan en de hoofdstad. Daarna kom je meer te weten over het verleden van het eiland in het Museum dos Naufràgos en het Zeemuseum. Hier vind je fascinerende tentoonstellingen over de geschiedenis, de vondsten die onder water zijn gevonden en de kunst en cultuur van de Kaapverdische bevolking.

En dan op naar de markten. Ze puilen uit met handgemaakte sieraden, kleding en verse producten die je kunt kopen. En je maakt een mooie wandeling langs het strand van Praia de Diante voordat je Kaapverdische lekkernijen mag proberen in het Cultuurhuis van Sodade. Aan het einde is er vrije tijd om in je eigen tempo verder rond te kijken - bezoek de mooie kerk van St.-Isabel of ga naar een van de geweldige stranden van Sal Rei en drink een kop koffie met uitzicht op zee.

    A bit less time at the end, we didn’t need 50 mins to do the shopping, half an hour would have been enough. Aside from that, it was a nice trip and the guide was great

    Paulo was very informative as was the guide at the museum. Didn't need so much time at the market. As a lone woman, I found the street and market sellers intimidating.

    Church locked. Museum not worth visiting. Tasting ok. Taken to a shop where the expectation was to buy something. Not worth money. Can we have a refund?

    Much appreciated glimpse of Sal Rei, I really appreciated the specialities tasting and shopping at the various stops (museums, shops, market). Wilson has been a great guide an I didn’t mind that Santa Fatima was closed at all, the view was amazing. It’s just a glimpse though, next time I would definitely spend the day!

    We thought both museums were very interesting in particular the Naufragof. Wilson , as a tour guide, was very knowledgeable and accommodating. We loved the local food and drink tasting in such a lovely setting. It was a good mix of guided parts and free time to explore independently . Please don't change anything! Fantastic value for money.
