We are a proudly 100% local tour and travel company, rooted in the heart of Cape Verde.

Capescapes is a network of Cape Verdean guides, operators, and travel logistics service providers present on all the islands. We collaborate with correspondents in Italy, Portugal, France, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Senegal, and Nigeria, and we rely on professionals with over 19 years of experience in organizing trips, vacations, flights, excursions, accommodations, and consulting.

Travel is not merely an getway from the confines of our daily lives, but a profound journey into the depths of our own souls. It allows us to step beyond our familiar horizons and encounter the world's diverse cultures, landscapes, and histories. 

Through these experiences, we gain a richer understanding of ourselves and our place in the grand tapestry of humanity. In embracing the unknown, we cultivate empathy, wisdom, and a deeper connection to the world and its people, recognizing that the true essence of travel lies in its power to transform and expand our consciousness.

At CapesCapes, we firmly believe that an alternative way to travel exists—one that is not only sustainable and responsible but also profoundly beneficial for everyone. We are convinced that this approach can transform travel into a more authentic and meaningful experience.

Capescapes was founded in 2020 by Joao Paulo, a Cape Verdean adventure enthusiast with a deep passion for exploring Cape Verde's rich culture, lifestyle, and natural wonders. 

Motivated by a desire to offer travelers an authentic experience of Cape Verde, he became disheartened by the stories of tourists who visited the islands and chose all-inclusive resort vacations, missing out on the opportunity to immerse themselves in the true essence of Cape Verdean life.

In 2022, Capescapes joined forces with Novatour, and in 2023, we founded Krioula Experience.

That's precisely why we do not provide all-inclusive packages. Instead, we specialize in tailor-made experiences. It's this commitment to authentic, personalized adventures that drove the creation of the Capescapes method.
