About Strela Tours - Strela Travel

Philosophy

At Strela Tours, our approach is rooted in eco-cultural tourism. Every experience we offer is designed to respect the environment, honour local traditions, and contribute directly to the well-being of Cabo Verdean communities. Whether it's visiting small farms, sharing meals with local families, or learning from artisans in their workshops, we focus on real, human connections — the kind that stay with you long after the trip ends.

This commitment is shaped by over 15 years of hands-on experience in Cabo Verde’s tourism sector. As long-time professionals based on the islands, we know how to design trips that are both authentic and reliable. Our team’s deep knowledge of Santiago Island, in particular, allows us to share parts of the culture and landscape that many visitors never get to see.

We work exclusively with local staff — certified guides, experienced drivers, and trusted partners — because we believe tourism should benefit the people who live here. All our tours are fully insured, and we place high value on safety, quality, and fairness across everything we do.
