Hike from Praia through Santiago’s green valley to a 400-year-old baobab and historic Cidade Velha with a small local group.
“We loved this walk, its about 2 hours of actual walking but gets you out the city and into nature from Praia. Not a long drive to the starting point and they pick you up at the end of the walk (point to point, not a loop) The area was beautiful and peaceful. Lots of fruit trees and the Kingfisher bird and a money we spotted! Very stoney ground but not too strenuous. Good to wear shoes with proper support for the stones.”
