What you can expect

  • Your adventure begins in the city of Praia with a delicious breakfast at the 24 Horas restaurant in Achada Santo António. Then, your journey continues to the historic Old Town, starting with the imposing Royal Fortress of São Filipe, a 16th-century sentinel with stunning panoramic views. Next, stroll along historic Rua Banana, the first urban street in the tropics, where every cobblestone tells a storey.

    In the heart of the town, the Pelourinho and the majestic ruins of the Cathedral reveal centuries of resistance and faith. The experience culminates at the serene Convent of San Francisco, a centuries-old oasis of peace.

    Then, you'll head to the city of Praia for lunch at the 24 Horas restaurant.

    Exclusive perk: All admissions are included in the price – you don't pay anything extra. The local guide is a historian and shares secret stories that only the locals know. Small group for an intimate and unhurried experience.
