About this activity

The visit of the city of São Filipe makes it possible to make a leap in the past and dive into the history of Cape Verde. Its architecture and ancient houses called "Sobrados" are part of the national cultural heritage and tell the colonial history. While strolling in the lanes, the activity around the municipal market makes you return to the reality of the present. You will discover the variety of agricultural products that grow on a volcano and that is the wealth of the island. After the visit of the market, the excursion must end naturally with a gastronomic touch: the tasting of typical products of Cape Verde.
