The family were really friendly and accommodating and the food was lovely however for the price of the excursion it was not good value for money. There was just one course and no drinks offered.

We vonden het erg leuk om direct contact te hebben met inwoners van Santa Maria. Er zijn heel veel toeristen op Santa Maria en de inwoners die je tegen komt zijn allemaal actief in de toeristenindustrie. Dit was voor ons een heerlijke beleving.

Great

I enjoyed eating with the family. They were very friendly and we sang and ate together like we were old friends. The only thing I didn’t like was waiting for the host to meet me. I think it would be better if they met me at the hotel. I waited at the post office in a strange place and felt a bit anxious. I think it’s a great idea as you get to learn a lot about Cape Verde from a local.
