Sal Island is one of the highlights of Cape Verde, but with no public transport, it’s tricky to get around without your own wheels. On this tour, skip the hassle of renting a car and let a local guide drive you to all the top attractions—and some lesser-known viewpoints. Marvel at natural wonders, including Shark Bay and Buracona Blue Eye, visit Kite Beach and Murdeira Bay, and float in the Pedra de Lume Salt Lake.

Pink Pick-up car, top Sal's attractions plus off-road gems spiced up with funny pictures and more - that is Franek Foto Tour in a nutshell. I will take you to the most popular spots on Sal Island such as Kite Beach, Buracona, Murdeira, Salinas (both those close to Santa Maria, as well as in Pedra de Lume – the latter we will see however from out-of-the-box view). But what I want to show you is less known, yet stunning sights of the island. My tour goes partly off-road – we will go to the places where ony quads or 4x4 vehicles can go. It will be also a trip in time - I will show you some medical plants and places that have traces of how Sal used to look like. If ocean conditions are favourable, we will also swim in natural swimming pools. Every tour us different and tailored according to the needs of my guests and we stop in every place as long as you wish. So you can leave your watch at the hotel, but please do not forget to bring your swimming suit, sun cream and camera!
