Why a local guide

Why hire a local guide in São Tomé?

  • Roads without surprises

    Roads in the south and the interior change with the rain. Your guide knows the way and how long it takes.

  • Plantations and history

    Água-Izé, Monte Café, São João dos Angolares: your guide tells the story of the roças and the people who live there.

  • Safe trails

    In Obô Natural Park, at Lagoa Amélia or near Pico Cão Grande, going with a guide is the safe way to walk the trails.

  • Doors that open

    Markets, palm-wine tappers, fishermen and cooks: with a local guide, the island welcomes you as a friend.

Frequently asked questions

A local guide only costs €70 per person per day; a guide with a car costs €120 per person per day. Children aged 4 to 12 pay half, infants are free, and each day bills at least 2 adults.

Our guides speak Portuguese. Some get by in English, Spanish or French, and all of them try very hard, and cheerfully, to make sure you understand everything. If you need another language, tell us and we'll find the best solution.
It is strongly recommended. The trails in Obô Natural Park go through dense forest, with damp ground and paths that are not always marked. With a guide it is safer and you won't miss a thing.
