    Asked on May 12th, 2023

    I'm thinking of coming to Cape Verde to visit some islands, perhaps in December. I'd like to do some tours- as a solo traveller I like to join in on tours with others. Are your tours group tours like this, where random travellers come together on trips? Also, not sure whether to do a set trip- maybe 7 days, or if it's possible to just do day trips on the various islands with you? I enjoy nature, local culture, beach, horse riding- any particular tours or islands you would recommend?
