It's all about immersing yourself in Cape Verdean culture on this 4x4 tour.
Be wowed by traditional Boa Vista dances, epic panoramic views at Morro Negro, and even learn how to cook – and of course, taste – catchupa, Cape Verde's ultimate comfort dish. Rodrigo, one of our local guides, says, ‘othing brings the family together like Catchupa stew. Each household has its own version – corn, pork, cabbage, sweet potato, yam and carrots are a must, but the type of beans used can be a topic of hot debate.'
Kick things off cruising through Bofareira towards Fundo das Figueiras, learning about local crops and farming methods along the way. At Restaurante Mansao, you'll be greeted by the locals, enjoy a drink, and watch a traditional Boa Vista dance called the Funana. This high-energy, feel-good dance is guaranteed to get you smiling. Then, get the inside scoop on making catchupa stew with a hands-on workshop. Yes, you'll get all the insider secrets to mastering this mouthwatering Cape Verdean classic.
Next, swap your 4x4 for your hiking boots and head to the newly restored Morro Negro Lighthouse. Climb to the top for panoramic east coast views and soak up some local history. After you've racked up those steps, jump back into your 4x4 and head back to Fundo das Figueiras for a hearty catchupa lunch – it's like a warm hug in a bowl. Enjoy every bite before heading back home with full bellies and great memories.
