Fun buggy drive around Cape Verde, only 2 stops but it's ok.
Liked the onesies to stop you getting too dirty.
Safety briefing was good, vehicles well maintained. Staff are great fun
I'd go with the 1000cc if we did it again.

Superb afternoon with the No Limits team, couldn't fault anything, we both really enjoyed our mini adventure.

My girlfriend and I had a great afternoon with the 1000cc buggy and our tourguide Edy. We think this is the best way to see the beauty the island has to offer. Once you leave to roads and head into the dessert sand, your perspective on he island will definitely change since you see the parts you wouldn't see while walking or by car. I think this is a must do if you visit Sal Island. Definitely worth the price. Thank you Edy for the pleasent afternoon, the awesome tour and the funny pictures.

Lots of fun! Guides were friendly and professional. Buggy was in good shape although a little small for my large size. Flight suits, helmets, and goggles provided and definitely needed for the dust.

An amazing Adventure, what a great experience.
We took our 5yr old grandson, he absolutely loved it and the staff were amazing.
Jason was main tour guide and was just brilliant.
I highly recommend this tour.
